Who we are

From Blueprint to Execution

Blueprint Portfolio Solutions is a boutique advisory firm for real estate and workplace decisions - helping leaders and organizations of all sizes move with confidence when decisions are consequential.

The firm was founded to bring senior-level judgment, perspective, and real-world experience directly to moments when decisions matter most — without the layers, economics, or potential bias of alternate service models.

Our Perspective

Important real estate and workplace decisions are rarely constrained by data alone. They involve complexity, competing priorities, evolving business needs, and the challenge of translating analysis into action - whether you’re leading a small enterprise, scaling a business, or aligning a large organizational portfolio.

Blueprint Portfolio Solutions exists to help leaders cut through that complexity — framing the right questions, clarifying tradeoffs, and supporting decisions that can actually be executed.

We work upstream of execution to help clarify decisions before they become costly, difficult to reverse, or a point of internal friction - whether supporting founders and leaders without internal real estate teams or partnering with established internal and external advisors.

Founder & Principal

A business profile picture.

Peter Barnett

Blueprint Portfolio Solutions was founded by Peter Barnett. His senior leadership experience includes real estate, workplace, and enterprise operations at organizations such as The Cigna Group and PwC, working directly with executive leadership to translate strategy into executable decisions.

Across his career, Peter has led corporate real estate, workplace, and enterprise operations within large, complex environments — partnering directly with executive leadership on decisions that were financially material, highly visible, and difficult to reverse.

His experience spans portfolio strategy, workplace transformation, operating model design, and periods of significant organizational change. Just as importantly, it reflects time spent inside organizations — balancing strategy with execution realities, stakeholder alignment, and long-term consequences.

Selected Experience

Rather than advising from the sidelines, Peter’s work has involved leading and supporting decisions such as:

  • Guiding portfolio strategy for private and Fortune 15 companies with large, global, multi-site real estate environments supporting diverse business and workforce needs

  • Advising CFOs, COOs, CHROs, and senior leadership teams on portfolio transformation, cost optimization, and future-of-work decisions

  • Framing and sequencing complex consolidation, reinvestment, and footprint decisions to support both financial and operational objectives

  • Designing and evolving real estate and facilities operating models, governance structures, and service strategies

  • Supporting organizations through periods of transition, including growth, restructuring, and integration

  • Working closely with several of the leading global service providers — including CBRE, JLL, and Cushman & Wakefield — to align strategy, recommendations, and execution

This breadth of experience informs a pragmatic, decision-focused advisory approach grounded in how organizations actually operate.

A Boutique Firm by Design

Blueprint Portfolio Solutions is intentionally structured as a boutique firm.

Clients work directly with experienced leadership — not a rotating project team. This focused model allows us to bring deep judgment, clarity, and decisiveness to situations where it matters most, from ad-hoc decisions support for smaller entities to enterprise-scale strategic alignment.

Our role is not to replace internal teams or execution partners, but to strengthen decision-making — helping organizations and their advisors move forward with alignment and momentum.

How Clients Engage Us

Clients engage Blueprint Portfolio Solutions when they need:

  • Senior judgment on consequential decisions

  • An independent perspective alongside existing advisors

  • Clear framing and decision support during change or transition

  • Flexible, time-bound support without long-term overhead

  • Strategic clarity when internal resources are limited

Engagements range from targeted advisory support to ongoing strategic partnerships and moment-in-time executive guidance.

Blueprint Portfolio Solutions brings the experience typically found inside large organizations — delivered through a focused, boutique advisory model.

For leaders navigating complexity - whether you’re scaling a business, leading a growing organization without a dedicated real estate function, or aligning enterprise portfolios - we provide a clear path from blueprint to execution.
