Strategic objective:
To deliver, maintain and manage buildings in response to the needs
of the market, now and into the future.
The quality of our buildings is the foundation of our business and we will continue to strive for Sustainability excellence in the delivery and operation of our product.
Design and Quality
As an integrated real estate group, Mirvac exercises total control over the development process, from concept design to construction and beyond. Mirvac's in-house design, development, construction and marketing teams ensure we have a fully integrated approach.
We also ensure the quality of our designs through our MirvacPlus Residential Scorecard. The Scorecard is an internal management system embedded across the development division that comprise a set of objectives that drive outcomes rather than specified targets.
Looking Forward
Some of our key actions for 2012 are:
- > Continue to promote sustainability as a core part of Mirvac's operations through the Mirvac Group strategic driver 'Sustainability Excellence'
- > Source opportunities for business units to work as one team to promote Mirvac sustainable design principles and features
- > Continue to document case studies to record the commercial, environmental and social benefits of sustainability
- > Set medium term and long term NABERS targets (energy and water) for Mirvac's non-residential building portfolio
- > Enhance opportunities for introducing product stewardship into the design and procurement process
- > Implement annual review of the MirvacPlus Residential Scorecard
