This project presents a valuable approach to a crucial issue. The quick-start guide has the potential to lower the barrier to entry for Green IT adoption. To increase its impact, the guide needs further refinement to ensure broader applicability and long-term use. Consider providing multiple guides tailored to different industries or company sizes.

Next Step: Validate your guide by seeking feedback from potential users and iterating on your design based on their input.

Excellent progress! Next, define 3-5 key user personas (e.g., busy IT manager, budget-conscious employee) for your guide. Tailor your guide's language and actionable steps to resonate with their specific pain points and motivations, ensuring wider adoption and impact. Fairness comes from meeting different actors where they are.

Our mission addressing IT leaders is clear. We've defined the kind of company that we want to address. Read through our provided resources, chose the GREENIT referential, splitting it into 3 teams, clustering actions on feasibility levels visually. We'll vote on the top 10.

  1. Appointing someone within IT to track progress. This person should create the GreenIT strategy specifically applied to the company.
  2. Measure the environmental impact of IT, with a proper tool
  3. Extending the lifetime of equipment in general (PCs, smartphones, servers, screens…)
  4. Responsible purchasing (Prioritize purchasing reconditioned equipment, Generalize environmental clauses in equipment tenders, buy labelled equipment)
  5. Building a company GreenIT culture by training employees on the best practices + explaining the benefits of each action as we implement them
  6. Assess the relevancy of having an on prem Data Center – if not, move to cloud.

Hi all, I searched for the GreenIT.fr maturity referencial in English but I couldn't find it, so you'll need to translate it on the web from French I'm afraid... https://club.greenit.fr/doc/2022-06-GREENIT-Referentiel_maturite-v3.pdf
