DCS is signed up to UN Compact and have planned our strategy to address a number of the Sustainability Goals. We plan to submit SBTi targets within the next financial year and Nature Positive Pledge.

Our primary focus is the reduction of our carbon footprint alongside our customers as we have identified this as the most pressing need in the IT industry today.

We have three bi-monthly groups representing every business area and a Green Team spearheading our local and site based strategy.

We should reach Net Zero Scopes 1&2 within the next two years and throughout our supply chain by 2039.

We already consume only REGO backed renewable energy, our first renewable contract being put in place in 2017 and installation of solar panels on our owned buildings as well as EV schemes and gas replacement pilots.
