Cushman & Wakefield aims to revolutionize CRE search

The future of commercial real estate search is the focus of a new partnership between Cushman & Wakefield and design data tech firm Saltmine.

The technology provided by Saltmine enables C&W’s real estate professionals to create space plans, test fits and virtual tours of potential workspaces using artificial intelligence planning and 3-D space visualization tools.

“With our cloud-based platform, Cushman & Wakefield is able to offer clients a transformative way to evaluate and choose real estate,” said Saltmine founder and CEO Shagufta Anurag. “The ability to see in real time what a workspace could look like allows clients to proactively shape their workplace strategy like never before.”

Cushman & Wakefield says its clients are demanding technology that makes their real estate strategies simple, efficient, and predictable.

Using the Saltmine platform, the firm’s advisors can quickly digitize fully fitted properties in a matter of days, creating powerful interactive renderings that allow clients to experience the potential of their workspace.

“By virtually taking clients through a space and laying out their costs, we can make their site selection process predictable, experiential and flexible,” said Melanie Kirkwood Ruiz, Cushman & Wakefield’s Chief Information Officer for the Americas. “Clients know a relationship with Cushman & Wakefield brings expertise accentuated by technology.”
