MAPP launches Climate Ready service to help real estate owners strengthen climate resilience

MAPP, the commercial property management and operations firm, has launched Climate Ready, a new service that integrates key elements of the firm’s set of client services to enable real estate owners to future-proof their assets and portfolios.

Climate Ready turns sustainability ambitions into practical, measurable benefits for buildings and their occupants, preserving and strengthening long-term value, improving everyday experience and lowering operational costs.

The Climate Ready service identifies and facilitates the delivery of impactful retrofit and sustainability projects across clients’ portfolios. MAPP brings together the expertise of teams across building consultancy, sustainability, property management, technical services and building technologies as one single point of contact.

Solutions are tailored to fit the needs of the business in question, with Climate Ready bringing together everything from retrofit planning and green building standards to project delivery and ongoing optimisation.

The launch of Climate Ready comes at a pivotal time, as many occupiers are opting to stay and refurbish their existing workspaces, rather than relocate. This trend is being driven by a supply issue – only 15.5m sq ft of office space under construction in London in the final quarter of 2025, down 9% from a year earlier, according to data provider CoStar Group. At the same time, incoming legislation could require commercial property to be EPC Rating B by 2030. According to Building Atlas, 78% of UK commercial buildings have an EPC of C or below, putting them at risk of obsolescence. This need for quality retrofitting sets the stage for MAPP’s Climate Ready service to be in high demand.

Giulia Jones, Associate Director – Climate Ready at MAPP, said, “The industry has been calling out for a roadmap or service that supports the implementation of climate action and delivers tangible progress towards portfolio-level sustainability goals. Climate Ready meets that need by providing real practical solutions, across every touchpoint of property management, to turn climate risk into commercial opportunity. Like everything that MAPP does, we will tailor the service to the unique specifications of the particular building or asset, so that solutions can achieve the maximum impact.”

Louise Bonham, MAPP Chief Executive Officer, said, “Climate Ready strategies and mitigation pathways stand out due to the data and insight that we see day in, day out, from an operational and occupier perspective. MAPP’s advice and services will always be grounded completely in operational knowledge, detail and resilience. This is why our clients rely on us to ensure that their buildings and portfolios are fully optimised and adapted for tomorrow’s challenges.”
