About
Purpose
Tether One connects portfolio data, people and processes into one actionable layer. It measures what matters, reduces cost and carbon, and simplifies compliance. It targets CBRE account teams, facility managers and sustainability leaders operating multi-site portfolios.
What it solves
Fragmented systems, manual reporting and reactive maintenance increase risk, cost and emissions. Tether One creates connected buildings with IoT, AI and advanced analytics, then automates the hand-off into service delivery.
Key Benefits
- Lower operating costs, by cutting baseload and preventing waste (for example schedule fixes, setpoint optimisation, refrigeration loss avoidance).
- Higher asset reliability, with condition-based maintenance, faster fault detection, and reduced repeat callouts.
- Fewer site visits, through exception-based monitoring, remote diagnostics, and automated work orders into existing CMMS or IWMS.
- Verified energy and carbon reduction, continuous metering at asset and circuit level, portfolio roll-ups, and audit trails.
- Net zero acceleration, a clear pipeline of measures with estimated payback, IRR, and carbon impact to support scale decisions.
- Better workplace experience, IAQ and comfort analytics linked to feedback loops that help attract and retain staff.
- Connected buildings at scale, a unified data layer across BACnet, Modbus, MQTT, LoRaWAN, and web sources.
- Faster time to value, rapid retrofit sensing that does not require client network access and minimal disruption to operations.
- Integrated soft-services optimisation, occupancy-driven cleaning, smart scheduling, and triggers for robotics where deployed.
- Simple compliance and ESG reporting, scheduled packs aligned to common frameworks with consistent evidence.
- Finance-ready business cases, bank-ready ROI statements that link actions to outcomes for green-finance pathways.
- Portfolio transparency, real-time dashboards and heatmaps that prioritise sites, budgets, and resources.
Applications
Primary customers
- CBRE account teams managing multi-site clients in office, retail, logistics, industrial, healthcare, and education.
- Facility, operations, and account directors responsible for cost, uptime, and SLA performance.
- Sustainability and ESG leaders accountable for net zero roadmaps and reporting.
- Portfolio owners and asset managers who need verified performance data to unlock green finance.
High-value use cases
- Energy and carbon reduction at scale, baseload reduction, refrigeration loss avoidance, HVAC optimisation.
- Predictive and condition-based maintenance to reduce callouts and truck rolls.
- IAQ, comfort, and occupancy analytics that lift workplace experience and inform space use.
- Compliance and ESG reporting with audit trails and portfolio roll-ups.
- Finance-ready business cases that link measures to payback, IRR, and carbon impact.
Triggers that indicate strong fit
- Rising energy costs or exposure to carbon pricing.
- SLA pressure from critical environments, for example healthcare and cold-chain.
- Upcoming audits or certifications, for example NABERS, WELL, or customer ESG requirements.
- Data scattered across vendors and spreadsheets, lack of a single operational view.
Why this market
- CBRE’s enterprise accounts have the scale, data complexity, and operational duty of care that Tether One is built to address, and the shared incentive to turn insights into actions that reduce cost, carbon, and risk.
