Verdani Partners and Scaler are advancing a strategic, non-exclusive collaboration designed to help real estate owners and investors strengthen ESG data quality, streamline reporting workflows, generate portfolio and asset-level insights, and translate sustainability data into decarbonization strategy and performance improvement.
As sustainability reporting, regulatory expectations, investor requirements, and decarbonization priorities continue to evolve, real estate teams are managing larger volumes of data across more complex portfolios, systems, stakeholders, and disclosure frameworks. Many organizations are still working through manual, fragmented, or spreadsheet-heavy processes that make it difficult to efficiently collect data, identify risks, prioritize actions, and convert ESG information into practical business decisions.
The Verdani–Scaler collaboration is designed to support that need through a coordinated, client-first model that combines Verdani’s advisory, ESG program management, reporting, and real estate sustainability expertise with Scaler’s data platform, analytics, reporting, and decarbonization roadmap capabilities.
Under the collaboration, Verdani continues to serve as the primary client-facing advisor and program lead, supporting ESG strategy, program management, data interpretation, client communication, reporting guidance, and overall advisory oversight. Working side-by-side with Verdani, Scaler provides platform capabilities that support data collection, data quality, analytics, reporting workflows, portfolio and asset-level dashboards, decarbonization roadmaps, and platform support where needed.
“Real estate clients need reliable data systems and actionable insights to keep pace with evolving reporting, compliance, and decarbonization expectations,” said Daniele Horton, Founder and CEO at Verdani Partners. “Our collaboration with Scaler strengthens Verdani’s ability to help clients improve data quality, streamline reporting workflows, and use sustainability data more effectively to support strategy, disclosure, and performance improvement.”
Leveraging Scaler’s platform, Verdani can provide enhanced assistance with a broad range of ESG data and reporting needs, including data collection, dashboarding, portfolio- and asset-level analytics, GRESB submission, reporting exports, carbon target mapping, CRREM and custom decarbonization pathways, and strategy modeling. The Scaler platform is designed to consolidate structured and unstructured data from multiple sources, support data validation and enrichment, and help real estate teams generate insights across reporting, compliance, and performance priorities. Scaler’s materials identify capabilities across ESG analytics, GRESB, EU Taxonomy, CSRD, SFDR, TCFD, GRI, INREV, EPRA, and decarbonization roadmaps, among other reporting and analysis needs.
A key focus of the collaboration is helping clients move from data management to action. By combining Verdani’s advisory expertise and market knowledge with Scaler’s platform tools and automation capabilities, the collaboration is intended to help clients better understand portfolio performance, identify underperforming assets, prioritize ESG actions, and support investment and operational decisions with clearer data and analysis.
“Scaler is excited to collaborate with Verdani Partners to help real estate owners and investors improve data quality, streamline reporting workflows, and generate the insights needed to manage increasingly complex ESG programs.”
