Context
A 40-person services company wanted to understand the environmental impact of its IS and integrate digital sustainability into its overall strategy, aligning technological performance with ecological responsibility.
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, full footprint covering office IT, data centres, network, cloud and mobility.
- Sustainable IT maturity assessment.
- Awareness workshop, 'Towards a responsible digital future' interactive conference.
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; teams engage far more when they see numbers from their own organisation, not generic averages.
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 Gamify module fed the awareness workshops with the organisation's own numbers and challenges, so participants could engage with their real footprint rather than generic averages.
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.
