Technology Category	Cybersecurity & Privacy - Identity & Authentication Management
Applicable Industries	Electrical Grids
Use Cases	Leasing Finance Automation Material Handling Automation
Services	Cloud Planning, Design & Implementation Services
Challenge	A North American technology company, recognized as a Forbes Cloud 100 Honoree, was committed to sustainability and aimed to scale its efforts for improved efficiency. The company, with nearly 1,000 employees, is trusted by over 3,500 of the world's top brands and fastest-growing innovators. It is designed to reduce power consumption through optimization and automation. However, the company was facing challenges in tracking its carbon footprint. The process was manual, involving internal teams and external consultants, which was time-consuming and tedious. The company wanted to increase visibility at an organizational level through automation and quantify its full impact. It also aimed to integrate sustainability cross-departmentally and accelerate its efforts towards sustainability. Read More
About Customer	The customer is a North American technology company, recognized as a Forbes Cloud 100 Honoree.

The company is purpose-built to reduce power consumption through optimization and automation. It is committed to sustainability and aims to scale its efforts for improved efficiency. The company was previously working with internal teams and external consultants to manually track carbon, which was a time-intensive and tedious process. It aimed to increase visibility at an organizational level through automation and integrate sustainability cross-departmentally. Read More
Solution	The company engaged Persefoni to streamline its sustainability commitment. Persefoni was deployed to identify the company's full Scope 1-3 carbon footprint. This involved engaging with multiple stakeholders across the breadth of their cross-functional sustainability team. Persefoni templates were used to gather data from individual contributors, teams, and workspaces worldwide. The company also deployed an in-depth survey to collect information on how behaviors have shifted to reflect the new remote workplace. This data would be used to improve granularity and potentially identify future decarbonization strategies. The company plans to leverage Persefoni for reporting, explore offsetting opportunities via Persefoni’s partnership with Patch, and use real-time data to begin identifying intelligent, strategic decarbonization strategies. Climate Impact Benchmarking and Climate Trajectory Modeling are two Persefoni modules that will drive additional value to the Persefoni investment. Read More Log in to view content
