“I am delighted to be working with the individuals and Member organisations below, who are committed to the application of standards to bring efficiency to the real estate market. We have made huge steps forward in the 7 years since I first joined PISCES, and the merger with OSCRE Americas is a welcome step to us achieving even greater things.

It was Thomas Edison, prolific inventor and businessman who said “If there's a way to do it better – find it”, but he also points out that “The value of an idea lies in the using of it.”

OSCRE exists to help you and your industry collaborate to find the better way, as well as implement industry wide solutions. Use us to make your business better.”

“As a company at the forefront of technology, MDA SearchFlow are always looking at ways to innovate and to improve the electronic exchange of information throughout the Conveyancing marketplace and beyond. As such, we saw the introduction of the PISCES real estate standard as a huge plus point in the industry and have been actively involved in promoting and creating the various data exchange solutions that we see in use today throughout the UK. The merger with OSCRE is a huge positive step and only strengthens our commitment to the combined development and management of interoperability exchange standards throughout the world.”

“The merger of OSCRE Americas and PISCES to form OSCRE is a huge step forward for the entire real estate industry. As our focus has been and will continue to be to create efficiencies within our companies, associations and, ultimately, the world, we are now a major step closer to our goal. The leadership of OSCRE is dedicated to meeting your needs by saving you time and money, as well as by reducing the risks associated with the procedures employed in the past for the transfer of data from one stakeholder to another. We encourage all real estate organizations, large and small, to take advantage of the benefits that you will derive as a user of our data standards and procedures, and as a member of OSCRE, the most prominent organization of its kind that is working diligently to meet your needs and objectives, especially during these challenging times.”

“ING Real Estate Investment Management (ING REIM) is focused on delivering investment performance for our clients throughout the major global markets and has been working with OSCRE and the data standards to provide more efficient processes. The new OSCRE, committed to establishing global data standards for real estate information, ties in directly with ING REIM’s current broad client base on four continents, Europe, North America and South America, Asia and Australia. ING REIM is excited to participate on the new Board and to assist in shaping the future of Real Estate Information and data standards.”

“As one of the world’s largest commerial real estate services firm with operations in 58 countries, our service lines and global clients benefit from the data standards being driven by OSCRE. Cushman & Wakefield continues to support the OSCRE organization through our membership and seat on the board. We look forward to the continued development, promulgation, and adoption of international data standards in the commercial real estate industry and commit to collaboratively lead these efforts.”

“TM has spent many years developing robust and reliable systems that will handle large volumes of property related searches every day. With a track record in system integration, TM has been a firm adopter of the OSCRE Search standard, not only helping to specify it, but by also assisting many organizations in its use and implementation. With a TM sourced search in over 40% of Home Information Packs, most of these are either ordered or delivered using a OSCRE based format.”

“OSCRE’s commitment to real estate standards and the efficient movement of information is at the core of Real Foundations work with our clients. Virtually every client we have is challenged by the increasing demand and complexity of obtaining, analyzing and acting on information. OSCRE's ability to enhance these activities is why RealFoundations is committed to OSCRE and excited over the recent merger with PISCES and our combined international efforts.”

“At IPD we have recently completed a major project to standardise our global index and benchmarking operations upon a single data management platform. The next stage is to establish internationally recognised data communications standards to support the seamless transfer of data across a global industry, and thereby fulfil the speed, efficiency and reporting accuracy requirements of real estate investors and managers wherever they are based. To this end, we are working closely with OSCRE to deliver an independent global standard.”

“Both of the organization I represent, NAR Commercial and IREM, the Institute of Real Estate Management fully support the mission of OSCRE International. The joining of PISCES and OSCRE Americas represents a terrific leap forward to facilitate real progress toward achieving the goals and objectives of our OSCRE mission.”

“Trace Solutions is a UK based property management systems provider and was a founding member of OSCRE. Trace has continued to support the organization through its executive membership and continuous participation in defining industry data standards. Trace’s clients include managing agents, investors and occupiers who exchange substantial amounts of data between disparate systems on a very regular basis. This data must be valid and OSCRE’s standards have allowed us to develop software that can achieve this. By using a global standard, our clients with international portfolios can now consolidate and analyze data in a standardised format.”
