Mobility can dramatically lower your carbon Footprint

By adjusting our RE policy to support the mobile work style we can:

–Dramatically reducethe carbon footprint of office work

–Enhance organizationalcapability

–Fund the Greening of our office buildings

–Still come out ahead on the balance sheet

In the beginning “Home” was next to “Work”

Efficiency drove Work to separate from Home.

Cities pulled people in to Work…

For the first time in human history more people live in cities.

The office emergesarranged like a factory

It becomes part of popular culture…and always well used

The age of abundance came and went

Something has happened…

Mobility happened

A majority of organizations & people today are surprised by the high levels of mobility they are experiencing.

Now organizations are wondering where everyone is…

We still love the idea of our own desk.

Sometimes individuals are necessarily tied to a particular location.

...but more often than not the needs are very simple!

Sometimes dedicated space can become a burden.

...and it is often empty.

Utilization is the key!

- Drives technology improvements- Drives policy improvements- Drives increased awareness- Reduces Commutes- Reduces Energy Consumption- Reduces Office Space per Employee- Reduces Carbon per Employee

Bracknell’s Transformation

> Underutilized dedicated space

> No certainty that the supposed virtue of face-to-face collaboration actually occurs

> Legacy filing (often hard copy)

> Offices without a pulse

Before

> Busy, high-energy, highly utilized space with free-address work spaces

> Employees are enabled to work anywhere

> Better planned, and more flexible interaction

After

> Smaller footprint

> More discipline in filing/ sharing information

> A wider range of task settings

After

HP Employee Engagement

More frequent use of collaborative technologies correlates with higher levels of engagement

– but use of “sophisticated” collaborative technologies is very limited

HP Survey Results

Employees who spend more time mobile are just as engaged as dedicated desk workers

HP Survey Results

Hewlett Packard employees, on average, are highly engaged

(Score of 3.82 out of 5)

HP Survey Results

‘Future of Work’ SurveyJune 2007

The level of densification of the workplace has little impact on engagement

Productivity Impacts

62% found home the most productive workplace

48% claim to work harder now that they are mobile

24% felt that their main office was the most productive work location

Our Assumptions

•Modeled on a 100,000sf building

•Starts with 30% of staff going Mobile

•An initial reduction of 25,000sf

•Energy declining proportional to Bracknell

•Commutes declining proportional to Sun

•Mobility increasing 5% a year

Our DataOur Calculation Method

Mobility Cuts Carbon Emissions

Mobility Cuts Land Consumption

Mobility Reduces Cost

What is the impact?

this or this?

What does your workspace look like?

We are just getting started…

35% of US companies have a mobility program

26% are developing one

15% have a mobility budget

Nemertes Research 2007

New metric for Corporate real estate should be “CO2 per person”

Calculations show 66% reduction in RE CO2 per person (over 10 years)

If Companies Go Mobile…

If new construction in 07 were leveraged by mobility;

This would equate to 523m metric tons of carbon over ten years’

All US coal powered plants scheduled to be built over next ten years would not be necessary

If Companies Go Mobile…

If only 40% of companies* did this over 10 years we could save

–1.2 billion metric tons of CO2

–21 Manhattan’s worth of carbon emission per year

–800 acres of green land per year

If Companies Go Mobile…

* Based on 4.7 billion square of existing office space in the US (Colliers 2007)

Human Resources Respondents want to learn more about employee mobility and change management practices

Workplace Respondents want to learn more about distributed work activity settings, measurement practices and social engagement technologies
