Context

A large financial institution wanted to integrate digital sustainability into its overall strategy, combining innovation, security and environmental responsibility, in view of European Numérique Responsable certification.

Sector backdrop. Banks combine large fleets of end-user devices, dense data-centre footprints and a heavy reliance on third-party cloud services, three categories where Sustainable IT levers compound quickly. Regulatory pressure on non-financial reporting also makes a defensible IT footprint a near-term necessity.

Approach

  • Full IS audit covering office IT, servers, data centres, network and cloud.
  • Maturity evaluation across 59 European reference framework criteria.
  • Multi-year roadmap (2025–2027) with measurable targets.
  • Internal Sustainable IT intranet space for continuous learning.

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.
