Context
An international company of 180 staff specialised in open-source solutions wanted to evaluate the environmental impact of its IS and engage in a structured Sustainable IT programme aligned with European standards.
Sector backdrop. For technology and services companies, the IT footprint is the business footprint. Sustainable IT therefore directly affects product strategy, supplier choices and the credibility of the company's own sustainability claims.
Approach
- IT footprint and Sustainable IT maturity assessment footprint covering office IT, network, data centres and cloud.
- Maturity evaluation against the 59 criteria of the European reference framework.
- Roadmap towards Level 1 of the Numérique Responsable label.
Results
Formalised responsible digital strategy supported by leadership. IT impact measurement integrated in sustainability reporting. Internal ambassador community to keep the momentum.
Why this matters
Combining a footprint assessment with certification preparation shortens the path from raw data to recognised maturity: the same evidence base feeds both the reduction roadmap and the official label dossier, instead of being collected twice in different formats.
A few patterns came out of the engagement that tend to repeat across organisations of similar scale: the largest share of the footprint almost always lives in end-user devices, not in the data centre; preparing the evidence file progressively, rather than at the end, saves weeks of last-minute work.
How the MIKUJY platform supported the work
The MIKUJY platform was used end-to-end to structure the engagement, host the data and consolidate results in dashboards the teams could revisit at any time.
More specifically, the Measure module powered the IT footprint and Sustainable IT maturity assessment, turning scattered inventories into a single comparable baseline; and the Implement module structured the certification preparation, mapping each requirement to a personalised Sustainable IT roadmap and tracking evidence over time.
MIKUJY consultants brought hands-on professional support throughout the engagement, facilitating workshops, validating data and helping translate the platform outputs into a concrete action plan.
