What challenge did Stride face?
Before Deepki, Stride tracked emissions across its 80+ buildings through a largely manual process. Collecting sustainability data took nearly a quarter of the year, with two consultants working on it almost full-time.
Day-to-day requests also took time. Answering tenant questions about sustainability data used about a third of one team member’s week. With data arriving late in the year, it was hard to use it for current decisions on CapEx, financing and investor reporting.
How does Stride use Deepki?
Stride brought its portfolio onto Deepki in November 2025, just ahead of its March financial year-end. Deepki complements Stride’s annual reporting cycle with up-to-date, asset-level data.
Data management: Deepki automates data collection across the 80+ buildings, so the sustainability team has near real-time visibility of each asset. The team uses the same data to answer tenant questions.
Reporting & compliance: the team prepares GRESB, TCFD and investor reporting, including half-year reporting, from one dataset.
CapEx planning & decarbonization: building-level data showed an opportunity to bring refrigerant replacements forward across 30 buildings, five years ahead of schedule. The investment committee approved the program using Stride’s emissions reduction pathway as the business case. Each asset in the program is now tracked in Deepki’s Investment Plan.
Green building certification: better data coverage showed which additional buildings already qualified for green building certification, so the team could certify them.

For Stride, sustainability data is now a direct input to capital decisions. It shaped a CapEx program, improved financing terms and gave investors a clear view of the company’s emissions reduction pathway. The newly certified buildings are also supporting higher achieved rent and valuation in office and industrial assets.
Better data gave us options we didn’t know we had, like bringing our refrigerant replacements forward, which is now central to our reduction pathway. That same visibility is what’s driving our financing terms today. Investors can see we’re organised and on a pathway. As one of Deepki’s first New Zealand clients, we’ve felt genuinely well supported.
