JLL optimises performance across its portfolio with MRI Software’s open system


JLL, a global real estate giant with a multi-generational legacy, operates in 80+ countries, with a 100,000-strong workforce and annual revenues exceeding $20 billion. Renowned for diverse services, JLL’s digital-first approach enhances internal efficiency and enriches client services through investments in advanced property technologies.

Business Challenge

Led by its business technology team in Asia Pacific, JLL has been tasked with overcoming legacy tech issues, increasing data visibility, streamlining workflows, optimising service delivery, strengthening investment management capability and driving innovation within a large and complex regional portfolio.

Solution

In collaboration with MRI Software, JLL established a dynamic and adaptable technological framework, characterised by openness, integration, and customisability. At the heart of this ecosystem are MRI’s Property Management X, Evolution, and Investment Management solutions, strategically positioned to amplify visibility across applications and financials. This innovative approach is designed to cater specifically to the diverse needs of different regions and countries, ensuring a tailored and responsive technological infrastructure for JLL’s operations.

This ecosystem boosts efficiency by seamlessly sharing data across different solutions. The efficiencies embedded into our operations translate into tangible business value for a company of our size and allows us to operate with fewer users than many other organisations might need to achieve similar results.
