General

Welcome to the upgraded BuildingMinds platform! We have made things simpler for you.

Let's break down how to use the new homepage:

1. General user interface:

The general layout consists of three main elements: the top filter bar, the left-hand navigation menu, and the information area in the center.

The top filter bar helps you filter your portfolio to find specific buildings or datasets.

The left-hand navigation menu provides access to the platform's main sections: Data insights, Planning and forecasting, ESG reports, Data management, Data onboarding and Admin panel. It also includes the User menu, located at the bottom left.

2. Overview:

The main page provides an overview of your portfolio, including key metrics such as the number of buildings, sites, and countries.

It also displays a breakdown of Building types (e.g., Residential, Office, Retail) to give you a quick understanding of your portfolio composition.

It is also possible to further narrow down the data by selecting specific buildings from the list. When accessing details for a building, site, or rental unit, the top bar enters Detail mode.

3. Portfolio filters:

The Filter portfolio button on the top bar opens a filter panel, allowing you to refine your portfolio view.

Filter types include Geography, Custom structure, Building type, Ownership, Building status, and Gross floor area.
