Since the end of 2021, we have migrated and outsourced our servers to a cloud-based infrastructure to reduce our environmental footprint.
Our infrastructure and applications are now hosted on Microsoft Azure and Office 365, which are the best-in-class solutions in terms of sustainability. Microsoft has implemented energy-efficient technologies and solutions and commits to limiting the CO2e consumption of its data centres.
We have also been able to further reduce our impact by adopting collaborative digital tools such as Microsoft Teams, which connect our teams whilst reducing travel.
Best practices and tips on how to reduce our digital carbon footprint are regularly shared through internal awareness campaigns, training, and are part of our onboarding programme. We have also organised a digital clean-up day to raise awareness among our talents, and push them to reduce their storage consumption.
In 2023, we renewed the ISO 27001 and 27701 certifications, which certify an efficient security system and a data privacy management system.
“As a group, we turn to technology to increase efficiency and innovation wherever possible. Our use of cloud-based solutions allows us to reduce our carbon footprint and, whilst our data usage is growing, we have launched a cleaning project to reduce our storage and control our emissions.
We continue optimising our infrastructure and implementing solutions such as AI, AR and VR to keep mci group as innovative as possible.” Edouard Duverger Chief Information Officer
