Driving Green IT Initiatives Through ISO/IEC 19770-1 Compliance

🌍 Sustainability Meets IT: Why It Matters Now
From cloud infrastructure to on-premise hardware, every IT asset leaves a footprint. Unused licenses, abandoned servers, outdated desktops all consume energy, generate emissions, and contribute to e-waste.
With ISO/IEC 19770-1, companies are now creating structured, measurable ITAM strategies that support sustainability goals such as:
Reduced hardware over-purchasing and over-provisioning

Accurate lifecycle planning for device retirement

Responsible disposal and recycling of IT equipment

Energy-efficient asset tracking and utilization

Alignment with ESG reporting frameworks

🧑‍💼 The Role of a Certified ISO/IEC 19770-1 Lead Auditor
As enterprises evolve their green policies, a certified ISO/IEC 19770-1 lead auditor becomes a strategic player not just in compliance, but in sustainability. These professionals help:
Assess ITAM frameworks against ISO 19770-1 sustainability requirements

Ensure eco-compliant procurement and disposal processes

Drive initiatives that reduce waste and carbon emissions

Support audits that align IT with organizational ESG goals
