Orchard Street Investment Management
Orchard Street Investment Management is a leading commercial property investment manager, focused on the UK market and acting on behalf of institutional clients world-wide to advise on investing in and the active management of UK commercial property assets.
- Orchard Street Investment Management (OSIM) wanted to understand the social value their assets already contribute, and how they may go about increasing this contribution.
- Alongside this brief came the need to upskill and educate OSIM on the meaning of social value, the different approaches it requires, and how it can work best for them.
- JustOne undertook assessments of four different OSIM buildings, of different asset classes, across various funds. The assessments looked at: 1. The needs and priorities of the local areas around each asset. 2. The socio-economic contributions of each asset. 3. The sustainability activities undertaken at each asset.
- The report identified how each asset added meaningful social value to the local area, and ways in which they could increase this.
- Case studies based on these assessments were written and designed for inclusion in reporting.
- Results and recommendations were presented to asset managers.
- Business case and benefits for measuring and reporting social impact.
- Context of social impact within real estate, including nuances of how different assets will contribute both positively and negatively in different ways.
- Overview of the social inclusion needs and priorities within the local area of each asset.
- Social inclusion objectives and priorities of the local government in each area.
- Socio-economic contributions of each asset, with definitions and enhanced explanations of what this means and does not mean.
- Overview of the social inclusion actions currently undertaken at each asset, how socially meaningful these are, their economic value, and how they map on to the local government agenda.
- Recommended high-impact actions for each asset to take.
- Recommended strategic next steps for OSIM to take at an organisational level.
