ABSTRACT

Sustainability is not a trend; more and more areas of knowledge defend it and apply it among their main characteristics. The area of Information Technology (IT) has not been left behind and, through the so-called Green IT, advocates for a more sustainable environment. Organizations around the world are realizing that Green IT is an important asset that produces great benefits at ecological, social, and economic level. For this reason, we have developed a revised version of the “Governance and Management Framework for Green IT”. With this new version we intend to offer a more complete and solid guide that helps organizations to gradually implement, assess, and improve those characteristics of governance and management that are the basis of the processes and practices of Green IT. This proposal has been empirically validated through a case study and the results obtained demonstrate the validity, usefulness, and applicability of the framework for organizations.

摘要

可持续性不是趋势；越来越多的知识领域捍卫它并将其应用到它们的主要特征中。信息技术 (IT) 领域并没有被遗忘，并通过所谓的绿色 IT 倡导更可持续的环境。世界各地的组织都意识到绿色 IT 是一项重要资产，可在生态、社会和经济层面产生巨大的效益。为此，我们制定了“绿色 IT 治理和管理框架”的修订版. 通过这个新版本，我们打算提供更完整、更可靠的指南，帮助组织逐步实施、评估和改进作为绿色 IT 流程和实践基础的治理和管理特征。该提议已通过案例研究进行了实证验证，所获得的结果证明了该框架对组织的有效性、有用性和适用性。
