We recently undertook a survey of corporate real estate directors and senior portfolio managers to determine how Corporate America defines the elements of "smart building" for the next decade.

There were eleven categories, including one for "other," with each category being rated in importance on a scale from 1 to 10.

The majority of companies responding are in the top five tier of their respective industry.
