Sustainability Consulting by Detecon

Detecon’s offering makes an important contribution to T-Systems’ sustainability expertise. Businesses have a key role to play as the largest contributors to greenhouse gas emissions and ecosystem loss. Collectively, they have the necessary robustness to enable an environmentally sustainable future.

Detecon has developed its own sustainability consulting approach for companies. It focuses on one of the most important levers for sustainable development: the use of digital technologies. Used correctly, they can develop their full potential to promote sustainability.

Detecon’s sustainability approach comprises six steps that enable clients to change the sustainability culture within their company. Firstly, the challenges and fields of action are defined and the sustainability goals are determined. The second step involves recording the initial situation. Existing methods and strategies are documented and the data situation is then analyzed for recording the initial values. The ambitions for sustainability are then determined on the basis of various influencing factors. In step four, the strategy on how to achieve the strategic goals is then determined, along with short and long-term measures. Step five then deals with long-term and company-wide anchoring of the goals and measures with a view to sustainability. Finally, change management is conceptualized to establish the new climate-neutral culture throughout the company.
