Who We Are & What We Do…


Unlike other Green IT Consultancies we offer for more than simply advice on virtualisation or printing options.

Instead we provide a complete approach that addresses all aspects of Green IT (including legislation and certification), and encompasses your entire ICT estate – including the Data Centre, desktop and general office environment, networking, and operational working practices.

We are able to help you in understanding what Green IT is all about, and how adoption of Green IT Practices might benefit your organisation.

The key is that we focus on the commercial (cost saving) benefits of implementing Green IT practices. Our Case Studies section contains many examples of how the implementation of Green IT practices has resulted in substantial costs savings.

Our Consultants have the experience and skills to provide you with assistance in a wide range of areas associated with Green IT, including (but not limited to):

Setting a Green IT Strategy
• Measuring the IT Carbon Footprint
• Assessing your Green IT Maturity
• Training in Green IT
• Evaluating and Managing Green Suppliers
• Managing the Green Hardware Lifecycle
• Virtualisation

 

Green IT is Lean IT!

We firmly believe that Green IT is about far more than simply 'unplugging things'. We believe that Green IT is fundamentally Lean IT – it is all about the removal of waste!

In this context waste are the activities and actions that are undertaken that do not directly add value to the IT Services you deliver. Green IT (and Lean IT) is all about identifying these activities and stopping them! By stopping these activities you are eliminating waste (in this context this both reduces your carbon footprint and saves you time, effort and money!).

By thinking of Green IT as Lean IT you have far more potential for benefit. At this time Green IT is very much associated with the rather simplistic concept of ‘unplugging things’ – e.g. Reducing the power consumption of your desktop PCs, server Virtualisation, replacing printers with MFDs, etc. These are all worthwhile initiatives but they are very limited in scope and benefit. To truly embrace Green IT you need to take a wider view of eliminating waste in IT – it is not just about ‘unplugging things’, it is also about working smarter and more effectively. It is all about delivering more with less effort and resource – this is Lean IT (this is Green IT).
