CHICAGO-Jones Lang LaSalle, based here, tells GlobeSt.com in an exclusive interview that it is forming a new group to offer energy management and environmental sustainability services. John Schinter will be the president of the new Energy & Sustainability Services group.

Schinter was previously the director of global energy services for JLL. Diane Vrkic has been promoted to chief operating officer of Energy & Sustainability Services and will be responsible for developing the group in the Americas region. Chris Wallbank will head up the Asia-Pacific region and Chris Hiatt will lead the Europe, Middle East and Africa region.

The new group will offer services such as consulting services and facility management services to reduce companies’ energy and water usage, construction management of “green” buildings and buildings seeking certification from the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). “It is an initiative that was launched by our CEO” and president Colin Dyer, who has been with Jones Lang LaSalle since 2004, Schinter says. The group will also offer its “One View” service which allows clients to see information in one place for their energy and water usage, carbon emissions and other criteria such as amount of recycling. “We have developed a number of tools that are available to our clients that we can integrate all of the activities around a large portfolio of properties or a single building,” he says. “Then, we can track all of these different metrics around the globe.”
