GBA TEST BED FOR PROPTECH


THE REAL ESTATE SECTOR IS RIPE FOR TECHNOLOGICAL DISRUPTION AND A GLOBAL
BUSINESS SERVICES FIRM SEES GREAT POTENTIAL FOR DEVELOPMENT IN THE REGION.

11 November 2022




Under the dual pressure of Mainland China’s tightening housing policy and higher
operating costs, real estate enterprises in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao
Greater Bay Area (GBA) must break new ground for growth. A whitepaper
co-produced by Ernst & Young Transactions Limited (EY) and Hong Kong’s Urban
Land Institute (ULI) outlines the role of property technology (proptech) in this
transformation.

For those willing to adopt proptech, Harvey Coe, Senior Advisor, Hong Kong, EY,
said the GBA presented tremendous potential for the real estate sector with the
increasing applicability of artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things
(IoT), blockchain and other emerging technologies.





What is the purpose of this report?

Our GBA proptech white paper was developed around the theme of technology
innovation and the digital transformation of the real estate industry in the
GBA. In addressing the current status and future opportunities of the proptech
industry, we hope to inform traditional real estate participants in their
efforts to meet the needs of the inventory era by undergoing digital
transformation.

Whose views are represented?

We sought input from a diverse range of industry stakeholders including
investment and finance professionals, real estate developers, leading technology
companies and start-ups, urban planning companies, consultants, government
bodies and non-profit organisations, adding to the richness of experience in the
content.

How far have your contributors come in their digital transformation?

As many as 79% of the surveyed companies stated that proptech is of high
strategic importance to them, with 88% in top management regarding proptech as
pivotal. About 44% of the interviewed companies had adopted at least one
proptech solution, with the main application in asset and portfolio management
tools. However, construction and building management are slightly behind. With
only 39% and 38% of those surveyed companies having implemented the technology
solutions, the penetration rate of technology remains insufficient, suggesting
these businesses are not yet fully committed.

What is holding them back?

Although many companies agree a proptech strategy can improve operational
efficiency and reduce costs, there are hindrances in the actual implementation.
Some 34% of the interviewees highlighted the challenges associated with system
integration; 22% said a proptech strategy is not of the highest priority among
all corporate strategies; and 14% reported that their existing corporate culture
is not open to change.

Furthermore, 71% of the interviewed real estate companies indicated that the
integration of new and legacy systems, such as the significant changes to
information technology or business processes to implement new technologies, is a
major challenge that results from the lack of clear industry standards and
integrated products in the market.

Where do you see the greatest opportunities?

Information and cybersecurity, along with data management, are most valued by
enterprises in the GBA. About 85% of the surveyed companies indicated that
information and cybersecurity are crucial in proptech applications, while 78% of
them consider data management capabilities to be of high importance. However,
based on self-assessment, half or less believe their organisational competencies
and competitiveness in these areas to be higher than the industry average. This
shows that, in the process of digital transformation, enterprises in the GBA
must look to enhance their soft capabilities and technical infrastructure in
order to ensure a successful implementation of proptech.

What is on the near horizon?

The majority of respondents expect that AI, big data analytics and 5G will
significantly impact the real estate industry in the next five years.
Particularly in AI technologies, there has been a sustained acceleration in
investments over the past three years.

But apart from the market circumstances, a number of key organisational
capabilities will affect the digital transformation and technology innovation of
enterprises, namely proptech leadership, open culture, innovative corporate
management, agile development, data management, advanced data analytics,
information and cybersecurity, availability of emerging technology and external
alliances. Enterprises need to improve these organisational capabilities to get
internal support for digital transformation.
