ASI Solutions, a prominent player in ICT services, recognised this need and made sustainability a core priority across its operations. Partnering with NetNada, ASI Solutions took significant steps to measure, manage, and report its carbon footprint, setting a powerful example for the industry. Here’s how NetNada helped ASI Solutions achieve its climate goals through comprehensive carbon emissions analysis and actionable sustainability strategies.
The Challenge
As a leader in ICT services, ASI Solutions aimed to align its operations with rigorous sustainability standards. The challenge lay in accurately measuring and managing emissions across a complex supply chain and multifaceted operations. ASI needed detailed insight into its emissions profile across direct (Scope 1), indirect (Scope 2), and other indirect (Scope 3) emissions to set a clear path toward achieving its long-term climate commitments. Additionally, with its sights set on Climate Active certification, ASI required robust data to meet industry standards, accurately communicate progress, and demonstrate environmental accountability to its stakeholders.
NetNada’s Strategic Approach
To support ASI Solutions’ sustainability ambitions, NetNada designed a data-driven strategy focused on comprehensive emissions measurement, boundary-setting, and supply chain engagement.
- Comprehensive Emissions Reporting:
NetNada worked with ASI Solutions to prepare a Carbon Emissions Summary Report for the period from July 2022 to June 2023. This report provided a detailed breakdown of emissions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3, encompassing everything from fuel consumption to electricity usage and supply chain impacts. NetNada issued ASI a formal Letter of Support, outlining the carbon data and validating their commitment to sustainability. - Defining Boundaries with the GHG Protocol:
Using the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol, NetNada helped ASI Solutions establish clear organizational and operational boundaries. This process ensured that ASI’s carbon accounting included emissions from all activities under its financial control, enhancing transparency and credibility. Applying international standards allowed ASI to benchmark its progress accurately and meet certification requirements confidently. - Supply Chain Engagement:
Recognising the role of suppliers in their emissions profile, ASI Solutions took a proactive approach by engaging key suppliers in conversations around sustainability practices. NetNada supported ASI in fostering these partnerships, creating opportunities to address emissions collaboratively and align with like-minded, environmentally responsible suppliers.
Results and Benefits
The partnership between NetNada and ASI Solutions resulted in substantial environmental and business benefits:
- Thorough Carbon Emissions Insights:
With a clear understanding of its emissions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3, ASI Solutions now has a roadmap for targeted carbon reduction initiatives, particularly within its ICT services and equipment segments. - Progress Toward Climate Active Certification:
By applying for Climate Active certification and proactively purchasing carbon offsets, ASI Solutions reinforced its commitment to sustainability, meeting industry standards and building trust with stakeholders. - Enhanced Supplier Collaboration:
Engaging suppliers in emissions reduction initiatives allowed ASI to influence its entire value chain positively, amplifying its impact beyond internal operations and setting an example for other ICT companies.
