CA ecoSoftware has established a global track record for helping companies achieve energy and carbon footprint governance, monitoring and savings.
Now, in partnership with specialist consultants CoZero, CA Southern Africa is making CA ecoSoftware locally available. The objective behind this move is to support sustainability goals and green initiatives in a systematic manner that can produce measurable cost savings for companies throughout the country.
CoZero handles the planning and consulting, CA Southern Africa performs software deployment and operational support.
“We have had ecoSoftware available in the local market since 2010,” says Steve van der Berg, Cape Town branch manager at CA Southern Africa.
“Now, with the support of specialist consultants, CoZero, we have the opportunity to provide the benefits of the technology for all our present and future customers.”
CoZero's highly qualified team of specialists in business, accounting and environmental science, uniquely positions the company to deploy CA ecoGovernance solutions.
“We specialise in deploying CA ecoGovernance,” says Wim Steyn, director of CoZero. “CA ecoSoftware also includes ecoMeter, which captures real-time data and provides a comprehensive picture of energy use and other environmental variables. The comprehensive ecoGovernance solution covers monitoring, reporting and compliance issues for the full range of a company's energy, water, waste and carbon issues.”
Deploying CA ecoSoftware has significant advantages. Real, bottom-line savings can be achieved and it has now - following King III requirements - become a necessity.
Wim Steyn, director of CoZero, says historically there was reluctance with regards to the implementation of green initiatives, and adds that this has now changed.
“On the basis of international studies and successful deployments, more and more companies have come to identify and understand that real savings can be achieved in the implementation of green initiatives. Undertaking these projects and augmenting them with compliance in company reporting holds immense and tangible benefits in many areas, including power usage.
Steyn notes that ecoMeter is a core component of the overall solution, actively monitoring power usage in any location or department. ecoGovernance then provides the analysis and reporting to ensure that the green operational issues can be managed in an automated and proactive manner.
Key features of CA ecoSoftware include: sustainability management (strategy and programme management, initiative and project management); carbon management (enterprise carbon accounting, energy and natural resource management); environmental assessments (supplier assessments, facilities assessments); and operational energy management (data centre power metering, facility energy and resource metering).
“CA ecoSoftware is the most comprehensive and full-featured solution available for achieving measurable success throughout the enterprise,” Steyn concludes.
