ESG Reporting & Corporate Responsibility

Sustainability is Embedded in Every Project We Deliver

At InterWork, ESG principles aren’t a checkbox—they’re a core part of how we plan, manage, and execute every office transition. Whether through reuse, donation, resale, or responsible recycling, our team focuses on reducing environmental impact while maximizing asset value.

We don’t treat sustainability as an afterthought. It’s built into the blueprint from day one.

How We Drive Impact

We work closely with clients to define ESG objectives early in the project lifecycle and embed them into every phase:

  •  Planning – Establish measurable ESG goals and identify strategies for reuse, donation, and landfill diversion
  • Execution – Optimize asset handling, track key metrics, and manage responsible disposition in real-time
  • Closure – Deliver comprehensive ESG reporting that confirms results and supports compliance

Our nationwide network of LEED-compliant recyclers, nonprofit partners, resellers, and logistics providers enables clients to achieve sustainability outcomes at scale.

Benefits Beyond the Environment

 Our ESG-focused services deliver measurable business value:

Offset Costs Through Resale

Capture the full resale value of your decommissioned assets to help offset decommissioning costs.

Reduce Capital Expenditures

We help you reuse existing FF&E across nearby or regional offices—an increasingly common and cost-effective alternative to buying new, provided transportation costs make financial sense.

Enhance Reporting and Compliance

Our detailed reporting includes diversion rates and asset disposition summaries. These reports have been shared by our clients’ corporate real estate teams with ESG stakeholders and featured in internal ESG documentation, CSR reports, and even SEC filings.

Amplify ESG and PR Impact

Donation efforts often present excellent public relations opportunities. We provide thank-you letters upon request and are happy to collaborate with clients and nonprofit partners on press stories or social media initiatives.

ESG Reporting and Corporate Responsibility FAQs

These are the reporting and corporate responsibility questions we answer most often:
What Is Your Process for Partnering With Nonprofit Organizations for Donations?

We adapt our logistics to meet the unique needs of nonprofits across North America. Our team evaluates the inventory and communicates with the organizations that have indicated they need furniture. Nonprofits get to choose what they need most. We treat nonprofits almost like clients, helping them choose the right furniture and even offering free delivery and installation.

The donation process is coordinated by our own teams, not third-party vendors. Our team lets nonprofits know which companies generously donated furniture, so our clients get additional word-of-mouth promotion.

We offer customized asset management reporting and create robust ESG reporting tailored to your needs. Let your dedicated project management team know your needs at the start of your project, and in many cases, we can help you get the necessary data.

During a relocation project, we typically provide reporting and documentation during the third or fourth week of the post-project support phase.

There are no true “average” cost offsets because the number can vary widely depending on the number of assets, the condition and age of the items, and demand. If you are trying to forecast proceeds, we recommend speaking with the experts at InterWork Office Solutions. Our experts provide guidance and can explore all your decommissioning options with you.

We make sure our reporting aligns with your internal needs and global standards. Clients have integrated our robust ESG reports into Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) reports, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, and other frameworks.

The information in our reports supports your reporting under the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), or internal frameworks. We also facilitate LEED-compliant documentation.

We partner with Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)-compliant recycling partners.
