  Fighting climate change

  Lashan Digital is committed to delivering sustainable technical solutions. Our vision is to tackle climate change and reduce the impact of tech upon the environment by developing solutions which reduce carbon emissions, conserve natural resources and minimise waste. We will support our G-Cloud customers by working together in line with the Greening Government ICT and Digital Services Strategy and incorporating these into our solutions. Lashan has a sustainable sourcing policy/strategy for hardware, software, hosting, spares, consumables, and professional services. As a cloud-based service, physical hardware and consumables are minimal; services can be accessed from anywhere; we will harness the web for virtual meetings, sharing e-training and documentation reducing paper and waste. Where waste is produced, we recycle – including the use of WEEE recycling for technical kit.; ; We are fully supportive of the Greening Government Commitments 2021 to 2025 (GGC) (which provide guidance/mandates to UK government and their suppliers on minimising emissions, conserving resources, and supporting natural spaces and biodiversity recovery) and will aim to deliver positive social value towards the UK’s emissions reduction targets. We will work with our G-Cloud clients to secure sustainable Cloud solutions and to manage carbon emissions proactively year on year.

  Equal opportunity

  Through Lashan’s Equality, Inclusion and Diversity (EDI) Policies and Procedures we ensure that our culture and working practices are inclusive, diverse and welcoming. We provide a positive environment with opportunities for all staff, including those from disadvantaged or minority groups. We are particularly keen to encourage women into tech (who are often under-represented) and as part of our G-Cloud commitments, we will drive this aim through increased, focused marketing and free online introductory sessions for women to explore Cloud architecture skills. We are also keen to provide opportunities to Apprentices and will commit to the provision of at least two Apprenticeship opportunities over the course of this G-Cloud contract.
