| The Oxford Experience | |
The Oxford Sustainable Group has built up an excellent track record of managing projects successfully in multiple European countries. This puts us in a fairly unique position compared to most other organisations offering services, since we have the practical knowledge, proven in the real world through our own team. Our services do not come with academics, consultants or trainers whose career is in providing advice. Our services come with one or more heavyweight/ senior team members who have direct value adding experience on-the-ground in a number of similar project situations. Our team members are still working on projects in parallel to providing the service. Therefore we can offer you an excellent service because we have done it ourselves and seen the pitfalls, the problems and the path to success in practice, not read about it in a book or simply talked about it. The projects which we agree to undertake, we complete at the highest level of committment and achieve your results. Our service offering are shown below. |
BREEAM - case study
Oxford has been involved in sustainable property and renewable energy development in its current form since 2005, giving us a longer track record than most other independent companies in existance today. We have also been a Breeam licensed company since 2009, the first in the Baltics and one of the first in the Nordic region. We are the only company we know who has developed its own methodology, the Oxford 360 degree Sustainability Index to develop and manage projects in these industries.
Consequently we have a long history with the Breeam quality certification as well as environmental and sustainable development, advice, management and auditing. In addition, we have helped to found and build up two Green Building Councils in Europe and have lead teams in, are managing and/or have sold around 70 companies in these fields. One of our advantages is that we are also a very experienced developer, so we have extensive practical experience of the real challenges and difficulties in implementing Breeam and similar methodologies from your point of view. This combined and practical experience makes a huge difference when compared to consultants, advisers and support staff who have only advised on projects and not owned and lead projects themselves.
Our goal is to help you achieve the best result in your project for the lowest cost. If you choose, we will guide you through the full process in a simple, smooth and painless manner, with expert support at every stage from first decisions about site selection to laying the final stone and operating the building. We are additionally able to advise practical and simple sustainable solutions which will decrease cost and increase revenue for your project.
DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT / PROJECT TURNAROUND - case study
We have undertaken many projects in renewable energy and sustainable real estate development since 2005 in various European countries. We were the first CarbonNeutral certified organisation in the region and our project managers are all qualified or qualifying in PMI, the international project management certification. Very few of our peers can claim a similar level of experience, certification or knowledge.
We have managed and turned around large scale, complex and politically sensitive projects - case study
We have undertaken over 300 feasibility studies, due dilligence excersises and project analysis works and managed various projects selected. Therefore we can support you in the decision making process to find, analyse, choose and select projects from an expert developer perspective.
TRAINING - case study
With over 7 years experience in Green Planning, Sustainabile Development, Renewable Energy and Project Management, we are able to share our valuable, practical knowledge to boost your team and project success. We have developed training programs for the global Green Building Council organisation, provided advice and white papers to governments and local municipalities and appeared as a keynote speaker, panel member or trainer at various major international events related to finance, investment, energy and property, particularly in the fields of renewable energy and sustainable development.
