Global businesses recognize that environmental responsibility is good business. Whether green projects are driven by an organization's desire to protect the environment, reduce costs, produce eco-friendly goods to meet growing consumer demand, or comply with increasing levels of government regulation, the results can be both good for the environment and good for business.
Companies focused on green initiatives are looking for ways to:
- Reduce their environmental impact and cut costs by increasing efficiencies and reducing waste
- Develop, produce and support environmentally sustainable products and services
- Redesign their supply chains – from resource utilization and manufacturing processes through transportation management, to product end of life
- Create environmental progress reports for customers, partners, and the press, including data collection, tracking, analysis and the infrastructure to support these activities
Information technology plays a large role in helping companies meet these objectives.
