Environmental pollution and the excessive use of natural resources that became commonplace during the 20th century have come back to haunt us as global warming and other natural disasters due to poor management of our natural bounty. Now in the 21st century, we are faced with numerous environmental problems, and forced to support an expanding global population using dwindling resources. At this turning point, attention is focusing on business models that fully account for the environmental impact of producing goods and services. This is especially true now that is has been shown that such models are not just good for the environment, but are profitable as well. Some examples:

• Turning what had been waste due for the landfill into a profitable resource.
• Reducing cost through reduced energy usage by using energy-saving devices and using clean energy sources.
• Using computer systems and efficient building desing to regulate energy use, leading to increased return on investement.

More and more companies are seriously integrating sustainability concerns into their business model and are finding increased cost performance, improved brand image and new business channels, all things that lead to better business.
Effective investment in IT infrastructure can also lead to reduction of waste and more effiecient business processes, hallmarks of sustainable development. Our sustainability consulting is a natural extension of our original IT consulting, and our aim is to help businesses make the transition to sustainability as smoothly as possible.
