Green through IT in Production and Site Operation

The basis for the success of all sustainability and efficiency optimizations is to capture and analytically evaluate operational and energy consumption data. OSIsoft, for example, integrates analytics with production management systems in real-time. Monitoring and transforming consumption data in production facilities offersmanagement better insight and the ability to make decisions in a timely manner.Furthermore these data can be used as a basis for manufacturing execution systems.

Invensys interconnects an Environmental Monitoring System (EMS) with facility management holistically. As a result,heating and air conditioning for example are optimized by considering risk management factors. The resulting corporate energy management system monitors and controls energy consumptions, shows costs instead of just consumption data and supports long-ranging programs for resource and energy management.

Green through IT in Operational Processes

According to the independent consulting company, BearingPoint,measures to increase efficiency and lower costs in operative processes can go hand in hand with sustainability initiatives. In addition tothe optimization of the data centre, computer clients are the subject to measurement and optimization, and concepts such as cloud computing permit new possibilities on realizing Green IT.

The Logica Business Consulting department of sustainability also pursues a multidisciplinary approach in helping the chemical industry to reach itsgoal: compliance-conformal corporate management, optimization of IT-based green business processes and the establishment of new markets, which are characterized by future-oriented ecological awareness.

With its FirstPoint solution based on Microsoft SharePoint, CSC shows which measurements offer potential. Especially aligned to the regulated business environment and the document and record management in the Life Sciences industry,FirstPointenables paperless processes. This solution helps to streamline processes in a widespread working environment andreduces business trips to a minimum, thanks to sophisticated collaboration functions.

INOSOFT links Green IT strategies with reduction of IT costs by migrating to modern systems whereuponvirtualization and consolidation play a key role. In this environment,new concepts for high-performance computing are supported by Microsoft.They include the integration and optimization of theworkloads of existing processor tosave energy and hardware costs, as well asadditional potential savings made possible by cloud computing.
