Digicom officially launched its 'GreenTech' Audit for corporate clients on the 29th of September, 2010.
The GreenTech Audit takes place over a two to four week period and promises to help customers define their sustainability and cost saving goals and implement a customised programme to achieve measurable results.

The announcement was made at the Collaborative Technology seminar being held in the Aviva stadium and highlighted many potential areas of saving for corporate clients. Having conducted more than 40 client audits to date, Digicom has found they can save a minimum of 20% on business hardware electricity usage and a minimum of 22% on corporate travel costs.
Added to this, Digicom has discovered that the mismanagement of corporate documents is costing businesses on average 25% more than necessary.
Minister for Environment, John Gormley, TD, attended today’s event and welcomed the announcement by Digicom. “Irish businesses are becoming more and more aware of the importance of combining business goals with environmental responsibilities. Taking steps to implement environmentally friendly practices demonstrates commitment to managing the impact of business activities on the community around them.”
The GreenTech Audit takes place over a two to four week period and helps customers to define their sustainability and cost saving goals and implement a customised programme to achieve measurable results. Through its tried and tested audit techniques, Digicom is able to identify savings and sustainability gains.
Sustainability initiatives can include the identification of unnecessary equipment or executive travel time, optimising or changing current infrastructure through to reducing waste of paper and consumables with education and policies.
In addition to this launch, Digicom has also announced it helped save the American College Dublin more than 25% on its in-house printing costs by consolidating its print platform, reducing energy and consumable costs, and guaranteeing a 98% uptime on all systems. The system combines Digicom’s managed print solution, PageSave, deploying Ricoh's Eco-line of "green machines" that helped reduce energy costs and the number of machines in use as well as lowering emission levels. Digicom is a leading partner of Ricoh in Ireland.
Alan Mason, managing director, Ricoh Ireland commented, “At Ricoh we are committed to driving sustainability initiatives that help reduce businesses carbon footprint. The Digicom GreenTech Audit helps customers identify areas that need to be addressed and have a significant impact on operational efficiency and also help to fulfill environmental ambitions.”
Greg Clarke, managing director, Digicom, believes that its GreenTech Audit not only delivers actionable plans but also greatly supports its corporate clients’ sustainability efforts, “The fact that our clients’ experience immediate cost saving and productivity gains, added to a demonstrable return on their investment accelerates the decision process once the Audit results are presented.
“It is a clear win - win and in today's times, any client investment has to be backed by a compelling argument for change. To be able to both save money and reduce our clients’ carbon footprint is compelling in itself.”
