Founded in 1978, Avison Young is a global commercial real estate services firm headquartered in Toronto, with more than 100 offices in 15 countries. The company offers commercial real estate services for occupiers and investors, including transaction, management, financial and advisory services. This Monday, Avison Young, along with the RPA flagship UiPath, announced a partnership to deliver the real estate experience of the future. Let’s find out the details.
Avison Young is a leading firm seeing consistent growth driven by its use of intelligence platforms that provide clients with insight and advantage. To meet mounting demand and scale its business effectively, the company created a digital transformation strategy that gives staff the tools they need to focus on value-add work and superior client experiences. Central to the strategy is the development of in-house predictive analytics tools which allow teams to make more efficient, data-driven decisions.
To extend the power of these tools—and further free staff of manual tasks—Avison Young is using UiPath’s enterprise automation platform. UiPath robots will be used to support Avison Young’s entire technology stack, sourcing and gathering key commercial real estate data—including access to transportation, air quality, ceiling height, bike scores, and walk scores—faster and with more accuracy and cutting down on potential errors. This data then feeds Avison Young’s analytics platform, delivering insights that empower its sales staff to create bespoke solutions that meet client needs. UiPath was selected as Avison Young’s automation partner of choice for the power and scalability of its platform and UiPath’s integrations with other core tech solutions that Avison Young relies on, such as Snowflake and Alteryx.
“We’re powered by people. Matching top talent with the best tech solutions has been a key differentiator for Avison Young and is essential to our ability to exceed client expectations by helping businesses, employees, and communities see the full potential of real estate. Our partnership with UiPath will take that commitment to the next level as we apply automation to accelerate technology, data, and digital transformation. We are only in the early stages of our deployment and are already seeing the value UiPath automation will bring to our employees, our partners, and our customers.”
