by Brianna Crandall — June 27, 2016 — The Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) International conferred the BOMA 360 Performance Program designation for the highest level of excellence in building operations and management upon properties across the United States during the second quarter (Q2) of 2016, including in the program’s top three markets for most buildings designated: Washington, DC; Houston, TX; and Atlanta, GA.
The BOMA 360 Performance Program evaluates commercial properties in six major areas: building operations and management; life safety / security / risk management; training and education; energy; environment / sustainability; and tenant relations / community involvement. Since the program’s inception in 2009, nearly 1,400 designations have been conferred in approximately 70 markets worldwide.
Earning a BOMA 360 designation offers buildings tangible results, measured through higher tenant retention and satisfaction scores, higher rental rates and documented operations and management savings and efficiencies as reported in designee surveys and by CoStar and Kingsley Associates.
