BULLETIN PRINTITRESELLER.UK 7 Green portal Integra Business Solutions has launched a carbon footprint calculation portal, powered by Compare Your Footprint, to help members measure and report on their carbon emissions. The ‘Green Initiative’ portal provides dealers with an easy-to-use dashboard together with ‘scope’ guidance and support to take them through the process – from collating and recording data to calculation and benchmarking. For members to be able to develop a carbon reduction or net zero strategy for their businesses, measuring emissions will be the first step. The portal, once populated with the relevant data, will provide all the information they need to analyse areas for improvement and reduction. For any businesses also working towards certifications, for example B-Corp and ISO, the portal provides a reliable data repository that can be used to update and audit measurements. Marketing Director, Sian Haskell, said: “We’ve been helping members in their sustainability journey through various initiatives together with our long standing partnership with The Planet Mark. This portal is another component within our ‘Green Initiative’ programme designed to support dealers when it comes to reducing their carbon footprint and illustrating their commitment to corporate social responsibility.” www.integra-business.co.uk Exertis adds to cloud services offering Exertis has partnered with BitTitan, adding the vendor’s fully automated SaaS solution, MigrationWiz, to its cloud portfolio.
