ACCESSIBILITY-AS-A-SERVICE / AxaaSTM BUILDING INCLUSIVE INFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE NEXT CENTURY

Efficiency Capital is a building-scale Accessibility-as-a-Service (AxaaSTM) partner. We develop, invest in, and operate upgrade projects in your building assets—delivered as a long-term service.

Keep your capital focused on your core business, while we make it more accessible.

AxaaSTM (Accessibility-as-a-Service) is a fully integrated model for delivering accessibility upgrades at scale — including automation, zero-step entrances, and enhanced wayfinding.

We streamline every step—from audits and technical design to financing and construction—eliminating the fragmentation that holds projects back. The result: faster, more cost-effective pathways to inclusive, future-ready buildings.

“Accessibility” describes a quality or attribute: the ‘openness’ of something to be experienced fully by anyone.

You’re focused on:

Operating, acquiring, repositioning, and refinancing assets.

Managing NOI, risk and asset outcomes.

Keeping lenders, tenants, and a myriad of stakeholders aligned.

But your buildings still need:

Major upgrades to systems and envelopes.

Decarbonization and climate resilience.

Better tenant experience and risk management.

Traditional options force you to choose between your core capital and the infrastructure. Efficiency Capital doesn’t.
