The main investment focus is on improving work environments and space efficiency<\/h2>\n

The focus of our investments in recent years has been on renovation and basic improvements and on the development of work environments, which have accounted for around 70% of investments. In line with central government policies, the goal is to always primarily utilise the existing building stock rather than new development. Besides this, we also utilise vacant facilities available on the private market.<\/p>\n

We take environmental aspects into account in many ways also during design and construction work. The particular focus is on actions to improve energy efficiency. Carbon footprint calculation has been mandatory since 2020 in all our new development projects. Construction work also emphasises material and carbon efficiency as well as circular economy goals. Finland\u2019s carbon neutrality goals also drive Senate Properties\u2019 operations.<\/p>\n

Investment financing<\/h3>\n

We invest around EUR 300 million a year in our clients\u2019 premises and have more than 100 construction projects underway each year. Parliament decides Senate Properties\u2019 maximum annual amount of investments. As an unincorporated State enterprise, Senate Properties finances its activities itself and receives no contribution from the Budget. Investments aimed at clients are financed through rents, the sale of properties and services, and through borrowing.<\/p>\n

Government rents are based on the gross rent model, which means that investments aimed at clients affect rents and the agency must have sufficient appropriations for facilities costs before starting investments.
\nYou can find out more details about investments in our Corporate social responsibility report.

Construction management guidelines<\/h2>\n

Consistent ways of working and operating models with our partners are part of our quality management. The key guidelines to be complied with in our construction projects can be found in the\u00a0project document management environment (BEM)<\/strong>. The service brings together all electronic documentation of construction activities by building and project in one place. You can find the related documentation in the project bank of each construction project.<\/p>\n

BEM guidelines also contain instructions related to the project bank. The design guidelines contain information technology design guidelines for Senate\u2019s construction projects.<\/p>\n
