What is an Operational Improvement Strategy?

At CSR Sustain, our Operational Improvement Strategies help our clients optimise their building’s energy performance. Through our phased approach, we follow our trusted process to enhance operational efficiency, all anchored on the foundation of a DEC or NABERS rating.

We believe that these reports are invaluable tools, guiding our clients towards more sustainable and energy-efficient practices. With our commitment to excellence and environmental responsibility, we help you create a clear path towards improved operational performance.

Why should you consider an Operational Improvement Strategy?

Increased Energy Efficiency

The improvement strategy identifies energy-saving opportunities and strategies, helping buildings reduce their energy consumption and operating costs over time.
Cost Savings

By implementing energy-efficient measures, building owners can save on utility bills and operational expenses, leading to long-term cost savings.
Increased Tenant Appeal and Retention

High NABERS or DEC ratings with a commitment to sustainability can be appealing to tenants who value environmentally responsible practices, helping attract and retain quality occupants.
Increased Building Performance

The improvement strategy offers a structured approach to identify and address areas of improvement, leading to better overall building performance.
Benchmarking and Performance Tracking

NABERS and DEC ratings provide a standardised way to benchmark a building's performance against similar structures and track improvements over time.
Social Responsibility

By reducing energy consumption and environmental impact, building owners can demonstrate their commitment to social responsibility and sustainability.

How do we achieve this?

Initial Assessment

We conduct an initial assessment of the building’s energy usage, water consumption, waste management, indoor environment quality, and other relevant sustainability metrics to establish the building’s current DEC / NABERS rating.

 

 

 

Operational Strategy

From our findings, we work with the building owner or tenants to develop a detailed operational improvement strategy. This customised plan helps to achieve a higher DEC/ NABERS ratings, and specifying the measures to implement and enhance the building’s environmental performance.

 

 

Continuous Monitoring

Clients receive a report of actionable strategies, such as retrofitting or integrating new technology. Throughout this, ongoing monitoring ensures strategy success, with periodic assessments for progress and compliance verification.
