2. Claim your property

To complete benchmarking for a property for the BESP, you must first ‘claim’ the property on the Building Owner Portal. By claiming a property you become the main point of contact (‘data contact’) for the claimed property responsible for submitting the property’s benchmarking information to the BESP from that point forward. 

Note: The primary data contact can be changed easily any time by un-claiming the property in the BOP or by submitting a Help Desk ticket.

STEP 1 - After logging in to the Building Owner Portal (https://bop.opentech.eco), click the ‘Property List’ in the top navigation bar.

STEP 2 - Click on ‘Claim a Property’ on the left sidebar and search for your property using the address, parcel number, or Madison Building ID (MBID). 

Note: If you are unable to find your property it could mean that it is not included on the Covered Buildings List or that the property is missing from the list. Please contact us for more information by submitting an 'Ask a Question’ Ticket on the Help Desk.  

STEP 3 - Claim your property by clicking on the ‘Claim’ button. If you will be submitting for multiple buildings, repeat steps 1 & 2 until you have claimed all of your buildings. 

For more information and to contact the Help Desk, Submit a Ticket for 'Help using the Building Owner Portal'.
