Critical Infrastructure Demand

CBRE GROUP, INC. · 2026-10-22 · Importance 60 · Surprise 40

BOE revenue grew 17.4% in the third quarter, primarily on strong critical infrastructure and facilities management growth. Critical infrastructure work expanded with CBRE’s data center services business and included a contribution from Pearce. For the first nine months, critical infrastructure, facilities management and property management all recorded double-digit growth, attributed primarily to new client wins that increased management fees and reimbursements, as well as recent acquisitions.
