Green IT

Did some research on the topic of ‘Greening the Enterprise’ in my IT in Operations/Business processes subject. Wrote an essay and thought it would be a good thing to add to my blog.

Abstract

The topic of this research essay is based upon the question “What role can ERP, SCM and CRM play in greening the enterprise?” A number of IT vendors have already started to address this problem; these will also be addressed and discussed in terms of what they are doing for these concerns.

The methodology used has been largely directed through what has been learnt about ERP through the Business Processes/IT in Operations subject and including research carried out from a number of Internet resources.

The main findings were that there are numerous changes being implemented not only in government procedures but also through business and consumer support too. ERP, SCM and CRM play a large role in ‘greening the enterprise’ and without it difficulties with planning and creating environmentally sustainable measures would be too great.
