Agenda
• Westfield’s overall challenge to understand and meet its users’ facilities
needs.
• Westfield’s approach to ensure its internal and external teams of
designers, constructors and suppliers are absolutely focused on those
needs.
• How the asset’s operational performance is monitored.
• How internal/external teams are rewarded/penalized as user needs are
met (or indeed not)
Westfield’s overall challenge to understand and meet its users’ facilities needs.
• Provide the retailer with what they want and meet the end users needs.
• Creating the most desirable environment for our retailers and customers
alike.
• Maintain consistent dialogue with our retailers through forums, 1-2-1’s,
retailer visits, tenant events / activities / training.
• Providing the right facilities for our tenants - storage, meeting rooms
• Provide mixed use amenities – Retail, leisure, food, housing, business
etc.
Westfield’s approach to ensure its internal and external teams of designers, constructors and suppliers are absolutely focused on those needs.
• It is important to note that as mentioned earlier that we are an internally
managed, vertically integrated, shopping centre group undertaking
ownership, development, design, construction, funds/asset management,
property management, leasing and marketing activities.
• We are held to account by our JV partners
• Learning from our mistakes
• The end product & longevity, build in future proofing which is imbued into
our external suppliers through repeat business opportunities.
How the asset’s operational performance is monitored.
• Through KPI’s and metrics
• Rent, Turnover Rent, Footfall and Financial KPI’s i.e. NOI
• Physical Performance – engineering, heating, lighting, environment
• Failure is not an option – risk of H&S issue, reputational issue, insurance
claims.
• Community relationships
• Exit Surveys / Demographic review
• The overall impression to the customer – it only takes one thing – a
damaged tile, mildew in a toilet, a broken piece of glazing etc.
• Through active Centre Management
How internal/external teams are rewarded/penalized as user needs are met (or indeed not)
• Teams that do well are well rewarded
• Reputation increased
• Failure would reduce or end repeat business
• Regular tender processes across major contracts
• Contractors measures on SLA’s, KPI’s regular reviews, constant
feedback.
• Hardline on H&S, Legal
• Positive working relationships
