Microsoft Introduces Sustainability Cloud To Help More Businesses Go Green
Beginning next month, Microsoft will be introducing new features in its Cloud that will aid corporations in accelerating the varying stages of their sustainability journeys, by providing better intelligence and data management solutions to reach eco-friendly goals.
As the company puts it, organizations of all sectors and sizes are looking to transform their practices into more environmentally conscious ones, including downsizing their environmental footprint, championing sustainability through value chains, and making strategic investments that back the cause.
To achieve this, it’s imperative for businesses worldwide to be equipped with centralized data intelligence to allow them to make these decisions surrounding complex issues, which is where Microsoft Cloud comes in to streamline the process.
The Microsoft Sustainability Manager will help organizations unify their data intelligence by collecting and connecting data using sensors, enabling easier recording and reporting, and the ability for businesses to reduce their environmental impact using automated data insights.
Additionally, corporations can use the Emissions Impact Dashboard to have a broad look at the carbon footprint of their current tools and make decisions to replace them with more sustainable, eco-friendly options.
“Digital technologies are also helping organizations facilitate greater transparency and accountability through their value chain, from raw materials to product creation to distribution,” said Alysa Taylor, Corporate Vice President of Industry, Apps, and Data Marketing.
“A data-first approach can help organizations achieve data integrity and gain the visibility they need to drive efficiencies, reduce emissions, and design out waste,” she added.
With more solutions slated to be released, managers and executives can trial Microsoft Sustainability Manager for free or purchase the program from June 1, 2022, to help build a more sustainable workplace.
