Complimentary online tool allows users to perform current risk assessments for locations and employees worldwide

New York, NY (June 15, 2020) — Newmark Knight Frank (NKF) Global Corporate Services’ (GCS) Global Tech, supported by NavigatorCRE, announces the no-cost release of the COVID-19 Situation Report—a unique tool that helps companies immediately assess their potential portfolio risk using data related to the evolving pandemic. The COVID-19 Situation Report provides a series of dashboards designed to visualize portfolio and employee headcount information overlaid with COVID-19 related data, including new cases, active cases, case statistics and recoveries. These dashboards provide users with on demand visualizations to identify high-risk and rising-risk areas in relation to employees and property assets.

The COVID-19 Situation Report–previously available to existing NKF GCS clients–is now being made available to the commercial real estate community at no cost, to support decision makers in all real estate asset types in navigating this ever-changing environment.

The tool allows organizations to quickly, confidentially and securely upload global portfolio information and anonymized employee location information (normalized to the closest airport or postal code), which is then overlaid with specific data on COVID-19 by geography, sourced daily from the Humanitarian Data Exchange.

GCS Head of Technology for the Americas, Carla Hinson, says of the product’s release, “Newmark Knight Frank puts people first. We are offering the use of the COVID-19 Situation Report at no cost because it is vital that companies are able to make the best-informed decisions about their business in such a critical moment.”

To access the COVID-19 Situation Report product, please contact Simon Davis (Executive Managing Director, Global Tech) at simon.davis@ngkf.com.
