Drive sustainability with Accenture & Microsoft

It's time to establish a digital foundation that enables manufacturers to deliver against corporate sustainability ambitions and economic growth goals, together. We can help clients build upon their digital capabilities, alleviating pressure on finite resources through a circular manufacturing process that leverages Digital Twins as a key technology building block, helping develop more efficient, productive, and profitable supply chains.

Through our joint sustainability solutions, Accenture, Avanade, and Microsoft can help accelerate digital operations transformation and drive impactful reductions in energy & materials waste. Together, we can minimize the environmental footprint of operational systems and processes within factories and buildings.

Accenture research shows that 78% of finance leaders are seeking to understand the financial risk to their business that sustainability represents, yet only 47% have defined key metrics for their ESG reporting, and only 26% of companies have reliable data to measure and monitor their sustainability goals.

Our co-developed sustainable solutions accelerate data integration, giving clients an accurate assessment of their carbon impact across scopes, breaking information silos, and providing data-led insights that drive sustainability action forward. The Microsoft Cloud for Sustainability, combined with Accenture's industry expertise and Avanade's data and digital experience, will help clients leverage their data through enhanced recording and reporting, using it to take action and reduce emissions.

Clients are facing mounting market, regulatory, and organizational pressures to embed sustainability into their own operational models, reducing their IT carbon footprint and making progress toward their own sustainability goals.

Through the Accenture Green Cloud Advisor, Avanade Isotope, and Microsoft Emissions impact dashboard, we can identify opportunities to replace tools, systems, and activities with cleaner options, adding business insight and value. By integrating green software principles, we can help tech and business leaders make intelligent choices around how to balance usage and how to invest in software the right way. Reduce your emissions and drive a sustainable digital transformation atop a green Azure Cloud provided by Microsoft and optimized by Accenture and Avanade.

Stakeholders globally are calling for robust methane emissions reporting and reductions. That’s why Accenture and Microsoft are partnering to define a new approach to detect, analyze, and predict through the Methane Emissions Monitoring Platform. This cloud solution leverages the power of Azure to make net-zero methane emissions a reality through real-time data measurement and tech-powered systems that predict and prevent emissions, enabling immediate action that drives business efficiency and growth.

Now, energy and utility companies can quickly identify fugitive hotspots as well as venting and flaring optimization, reducing the friction and time required to monitor and report, and enabling prevention and remediation end-to-end. Take a 360-degree approach to methane reduction and see how we can help your company enhance transparency, increase worker safety, and shore up savings, driving impact and optimization across your operations.
