In North America, that number climbed to 54 percent of respondents and Jodie Poirier, president of Occupier Services for the Americas at Colliers, was not surprised. In fact, she said she expected the percentage to be higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Poirier, who co-authored the North American report with Executive Vice President Chris Zlocki, head of client experience of global Occupier Services, said organizations here \u201care under pressure to extract more insight, efficiency and predictability from their real estate portfolios.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat this tells me is that while AI is clearly recognized as transformative, many occupiers are still in the process of connecting the promise of AI to the practical, scalable use cases inside their organizations,\u201d Poirier told <em>Commercial Property Executive<\/em>. \u201cWe\u2019re at a time where awareness is high, but confidence in execution is still catching up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group cmw-cpe-newsletter\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group cmw-cpe-newsletter-content\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group cmw-cpe-newsletter-content-img\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" data-attachment-id=\"1004794779\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/cpe-sneak-peek-square\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/04\/CPE-Sneak-Peek-square.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,1200\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"CPE Sneak Peek square\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;CPE Sneak Peek Newsletter Preview&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;CPE Sneak Peek Newsletter Preview&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/04\/CPE-Sneak-Peek-square.jpg?w=1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/04\/CPE-Sneak-Peek-square.jpg\" alt=\"CPE Sneak Peek Newsletter Preview\" class=\"wp-image-1004794779\" style=\"width:88px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/04\/CPE-Sneak-Peek-square.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/04\/CPE-Sneak-Peek-square.jpg?resize=150,150 150w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/04\/CPE-Sneak-Peek-square.jpg?resize=300,300 300w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/04\/CPE-Sneak-Peek-square.jpg?resize=768,768 768w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/04\/CPE-Sneak-Peek-square.jpg?resize=1024,1024 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group cmw-cpe-newsletter-content-text\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cpe-sneak-peek-newsletter\">CPE Sneak Peek Newsletter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Be the first to receive exclusive insights, data-backed analysis and expert commentary.

Approximately half of respondents globally reported feeling only somewhat ready to innovate, and just 21 percent said they have a well-defined framework in place. The most significant barriers cited were financial constraints, limited time and capacity, and organizational resistance to change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-preparedness-is-a-challenge\">Preparedness is a challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For the North American report, Colliers surveyed more than 600 industry leaders from across the globe, including occupiers, investors and service providers, providing a wide range of portfolios and priorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of that group, 47 percent said their organizations were somewhat prepared to scale technology and 35 percent said they were prepared and already implanting innovations across key areas. Fifteen percent reported their firms were in early stages and planning was underway. Just 3 percent stated there was no clear strategy or resourcing in place at their companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the North American respondents, financial and budgetary constraints were viewed as the most significant barrier to driving innovation at their organizations (39 percent), while 35 percent stated budgeting time and focus on solutions was the top issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resistance to change followed at 33 percent along with 28 percent citing inability to overcome legacy systems and infrastructure. The other barriers cited included lack of dedicated resources (24 percent), unclear return on investment or business case (19 percent) and not an organizational priority (9 percent).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nearly 50 percent of the respondents reported having only a partially developed innovation framework; 19 percent stated their firms have a well-defined, measurable framework with regular reviews and key performance indicators. The report notes, \u201calarmingly 12 percent admit they have no defined approach.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ ALSO: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/ais-creating-new-risks-for-owners-heres-how-to-protect-yourself\/\">AI&#8217;s Creating New Risks for Owners.

She said those organizations understand the importance of innovation and are actively looking to scale, but many are constrained by budget pressures, legacy infrastructure and competing priorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s why focus matters,\u201d she said. \u201cThe organizations that will move quickly are those that are disciplined about where they invest, modernize incrementally and tie innovation directly to business outcomes rather than treating it as a separate initiative. Overcoming legacy systems is less about replacing everything at once and more about creating a clear roadmap forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the 12 percent of respondents who shared they have no defined approach to developing an innovation framework, Poirier said this is where strong advisory partnerships with Colliers or other CRE services firms become critical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMany organizations know they need to innovate, but they have not yet defined where to focus or how to execute in a disciplined way,\u201d Poirier said. \u201cOur role is to help clients bring structure and clarity to that process by identifying the areas where innovation can drive the greatest business impact, aligning the right stakeholders and creating a practical roadmap tied to measurable outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Poirier noted many companies are in the pilot phase, testing tools and identifying practical use cases as they attempt to embed AI into day-to-day operations in a way that drives efficiency, better decision-making and measurable business outcomes. The companies that move ahead successfully will be those that approach innovation strategically, with clear priorities, strong data foundations and a willingness to evolve how they operate, she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-sectors-driving-cre-innovation-transformation\">Sectors driving CRE innovation transformation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Asked which CRE sectors are the leading driver of transformation in corporate real estate, not surprisingly 81 percent of the North American respondents chose technology. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/life-science-tenants-and-turnkey-space\/\">Life science<\/a> &amp; health care (36 percent) and industrial &amp; logistics (29 percent) were the closest choices. They were followed by professional services (23 percent), financial services (23 percent), global energy (21 percent), retail (6 percent) and public sector\/government at 4 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The San Francisco Bay Area was chosen as the top <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/which-cities-are-driving-commercial-real-estate-demand\/\">North American innovation hub<\/a> by 35 percent of respondents. The Northeast Corridor followed at 23 percent and Austin &amp; Texas Triangle at 16 percent.
