Have you been navigating ENERGY STAR\u00ae Portfolio Manager on your own? There is a better way. Get to know the ENERGY STAR Benchmarking Team for simplified and improved reporting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meet your ENERGY STAR reporting experts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ENERGY STAR Benchmarking Team is located in the Yardi Atlanta and Colorado Springs offices to conveniently serve clients in different time zones. Yardi\u2019s ENERGY STAR team consists of eight experts in all aspects of ENERGY STAR reporting and the many systems that these reports feed. The department is annually recognized as an ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year and received the Sustained Excellence Award in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The team supports client use of ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager, a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency system. \u00a0The team assists with regulatory compliance, finance and sustainability reporting requirements. They collaborate with clients to setup and maintain portfolios of properties in Portfolio Manager. This includes syncing data from ENERGY STAR with reporting systems designated for each property.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The existence of the department embodies part of the Yardi mission statement, \u201ctake care of our clients.\u201d Randy Moss, senior team leader, CSD, has been with Yardi for nine years. He joined Yardi as part of a larger acquisition but has continued on due to company culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYardi is a great place to work and encourages everyone to seek ways to better take care of our clients,\u201d says Moss. \u201cENERGY STAR Benchmarking started as a client request and today serves over 4,000 properties for Yardi clients. It is very rewarding to support our clients using ENERGY STAR for reporting to all the different systems needed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wait, Yardi offers support for ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yep! The team works synergistically with other departments within Yardi to support clients\u2019 reporting needs. The team works with utilities, industry groups and regulators to maintain knowledge of changes to reporting requirements and help clients stay ahead of any new requirements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The help is well received, especially when it comes to data management. Data in ENERGY STAR comes from different sources including utility companies, client payables, compliance and reporting systems, and Yardi Voyager.  This data feeds into ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help clients overcome data management issues, customization is required. Moss explains, \u201cEvery property requires understanding of the sync details. Most utility and reporting systems have different requirements for accessing and sharing data. This means every ENERGY STAR property requires some customization.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He continues, \u201cManaging this customization is where the expertise of Yardi\u2019s ENERGY STAR\u00ae Team adds value to Yardi\u2019s clients. Yardi\u2019s ENERGY STAR service removes the challenges of setup and maintenance of Portfolio Manager from our clients.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
