Archipelago | Prologis Case Study

Written by Jeff Bray | January 5, 2022

Archipelago’s Risk Data Platform enabled Prologis to connect an unprecedented amount of their data and extract actionable risk insights across the lifecycle of their properties.

Prologis, Inc., the global leader in logistics real estate, manages thousands of properties across the globe worth over $136B in asset value. A critical waypoint in today's global economy, 2.5% of the world's GDP flows through Prologis' warehouses and distribution centers. As a developer, owner, and manager, Prologis actively manages and mitigates the risk to its properties across their lifecycle. Yet, these rich formations of risk data were locked in a wide range of data sources, including myriad documents, making it hard to derive data-driven insights in support of insurance placements.

On Archipelago, Prologis has now connected its property data to create a single, unified view of every property and the lineage and provenance of the information. Archipelago ingested thousands of documents and artifacts from over 20 different sources and systems. Prologis’ high-quality data is now integrated across key domains:

  • Seismic Design / Retrofit
  • Construction / Acquisition
  • Loss Control
  • Roof Systems / Maintenance
  • Stewardship
  • Occupancy
  • Fire Protection
  • Flood Elevations, GeoHazard
  • Solar
  • Imagery
  • Insured Values
  • Incidents / Claims

With connected data, Prologis has extracted actionable insights, including the superior construction attributes of its warehouses, roof maintenance impacts, and enhanced coding of fire protection. And as their portfolio evolves, they’ll be able to glean new insights they never thought possible.

 

Using connected data on Archipelago to create insurance impact

Instead of disconnected spreadsheets and documents, Prologis sent their insurers secure links to their data on Archipelago. Insurers were able to access model-ready files and explore new property data, all with evidence links to trusted sources. This streamlined process empowered Prologis to convey their true differentiation and active stewardship.
