Context
A public transport company wanted to measure the environmental impact of its IS to integrate digital sustainability into its overall strategy, in line with regional and national climate commitments.
Sector backdrop. Transport operators run safety-critical, multi-site IT estates where uptime is non-negotiable. Sustainable IT decisions therefore have to be reconciled with strict availability and certification constraints, but the scale of the fleet means even small per-device improvements add up.
Approach
- Responsible procurement with environmental criteria (TCO, Energy Star, ASHRAE).
- Fleet optimisation, lifespan extension and reconditioned equipment.
- Governance and training with a Numérique Responsable lead.
- Sustainable telework practices.
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.
