Context
A Swiss food producer wanted to measure the environmental impact of its IT system to align it with its broader environmental mission.
Sector backdrop. Industrial groups already track environmental performance for production, but office and operational IT often sit outside that scope. Bringing IT into the same measurement and governance routine closes a frequently overlooked gap.
Approach
- Hardware optimisation: lifespan extension, fleet rationalisation, no over-equipment.
- Strategic structuring: integrating responsible digital into CSR strategy.
- Internal mobilisation through awareness and digital eco-gestures.
Why this matters
A baseline measurement is rarely the end of the story, it is the input that makes every subsequent decision (procurement, lifespan, cloud regions, application portfolio) defensible with numbers rather than opinions.
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.
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.
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.
