Enterprise Real Estate Asset Optimization

Course Description

Public and private enterprises in the United States control $40 trillion of real estate assets and most are not in the real estate business. An enterprise's real estate assets are either the first or second largest balance sheet item and operating expense. Despite this reality, public and private enterprises often overlook the optimization potential of their capital dedicated to real estate. Business leaders who synchronize the dynamic, ever-changing landscape of enterprise strategy with their real estate holdings enhance liquidity and shareholder value, and insure that scarce corporate capital remains dedicated to "mission critical" activities. The course is designed to provide business and real estate students with an understanding of how real estate can be optimized within enterprises through the synthesis of all the various corporate management functions and strategic planning. The course is set up as an interactive learning and classroom experience designed to create strategic insights for business students to enhance the value of real estate assets owned and leased by public and private enterprises. The focus of the course is to provide an academic context for a unique value proposition in today's business world - identification and measurement of asset optimization for enterprises from their real estate portfolios. Learning materials will include case studies, white-papers, SAP cloud-based real estate software solutions, actual management consulting projects, and case studies relating to the field of enterprise real estate.
