Fighting climate changeFighting climate change
The CGI SEEDS Programme (Sustainable Environmental Exploration Data Science) supports CGI’s drive to Net Zero and also positions CGI to lead in supporting the wider UK community, as part of our national social outreach agenda. As a result, CGI invested in growing its extensive ESG Consulting expertise, fostering partnerships with the UN and various universities to fund innovative solutions and has developed the CGI Data Twin 360; a Digital Twin platform which transforms the sustainable management of IT Infrastructure.
CGI's Digital Twin offering is particularly geared towards tackling climate change and overcoming the complexities of our clients Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions. In general, a Digital Twin concept aims to simplify the translation of complex data landscapes from fluid fast moving operations, into visually appealing, easily consumable insights, to enable non-data scientists to streamline operational decision making.
The growing carbon footprint of digitisation means that in the future, IT Spend will be a significant proportion of an organisations total Carbon footprint. The shocking forecast that IT spend is trending towards 3% of total human emissions globally, means that any organisation serious about climate change should be focussing on optimising its IT estate.
Driving a Net Zero strategy for your organisation is a complex data information challenge. Multiple stakeholders with their own data requirements and differing day to day priorities will need to work in concert towards this common goal.
Using a digital twin provides a collaborative platform to support these kinds of organisational decisions. CGI's approach combines, sustainability consulting, our extensive Systems Integration experience and the use of Digital Twins to support our clients in assessing the carbon impact across their whole IT estate. A digital twin using real-time IOT data removes inertia, creates actionable insight and supports rapid, agile and informed decision making.
