How can we help?

Be a pioneer in responsible digital change

The environmental impact of the digital sector, often unknown and minimized, increases every year and significantly contributes to environmental and social issues, such as greenhouse gas emissions and various forms of pollution. By acting on these levers, your company can have a significant impact on its own emissions and those of others.

Do you know the real impact of your current digital practices?

  • The main challenge lies in understanding the digital, often perceived as complex, where all kinds of ideas about cloud computing prevail and the illusion of an unlimited resource. This misunderstanding can create a gap between your current digital practices and your sustainability goals, harming the reputation and efficiency of your organization.

Better understand to act better

  • We offer training and workshops designed to dispel certain perceptual biases to establish a common foundation of understanding and dialogue, allowing you to realign your digital initiatives with your objectives and take effective action.

Does your company measure the impact of its digital activities on the environment?

  • Knowing that 70% of global greenhouse gas emissions come from companies, it is essential to recognize the significant role of each organization in the digital ecosystem. Without an understanding of the environmental impacts of your digital activities, your company contributes to current and growing ecological challenges.

Measure your digital maturity to align your practices

  • Through structured interviews and a specially developed model, we work with you to assess your digital practices. Our approach allows you to identify areas for improvement and evaluate your level of maturity for a more responsible digital transformation.

How to engage in a more sustainable digital transformation?

  • Faced with the environmental challenges of digital transformation, determining where to focus your efforts and choosing actions to prioritize is essential but can be complex.

Create your path to digital responsibility

  • Through Design Thinking workshops, we collaborate with you to co-create a path to digital responsibility. A methodology guided by best practices that helps you shape a sustainable vision of IT through the development of a roadmap that takes into account your organizational reality.

Do you want to measure and reduce your digital footprint?

  • Knowing where you stand today is the first step towards a sustainable digital transformation. By measuring your digital footprint accurately, you will be equipped with the necessary data to set appropriate goals, prioritize the right actions, and measure your progress over time.

Quantify your footprint with a digital assessment

  • In partnership with Fruggr, we can provide you with a quantitative assessment of your digital footprint on 12 indicators such as greenhouse gas emissions, water consumption, energy efficiency, etc. This way, you have the information needed to develop performance indicators and accelerate your journey towards a reduced digital footprint.

5 Levels of digital responsibility maturity

Where is your organization on the maturity scale?

1.

Initial

Limited or no awareness of impacts, knowledge, or risk assessment. Few or no actions in place.

2.

Basic

Some projects envisaged or started, but they are sporadic and not linked to the company’s strategy. Some standards and/or guidelines may be documented, but partially and without a high level of commitment.

3.

Moderate

Policies and programs are established throughout the company, but not necessarily measured. Good practices are implemented, supported by recognized principles. One or more roles are officially in charge of advancing projects with a follow-up plan.

4.

Advanced

Considerations for digital responsibility are firmly embedded in the organization, included in the company’s strategy, supported by a methodology, success measures, and a control plan. Documentation and training are abundant and structured, and a continuous improvement plan is in place to evolve the practice.

5.

Optimized

The practice is at a very high level of maturity and becomes a differentiator in the industry and is recognized as a significant strategic asset. It is at the center of the company’s values, influencing other practices in the development of a sustainable practice over time.

FAQ

Digital sustainability refers to a set of practices aimed at reducing the environmental footprint, enhancing the social impact, and promoting ethical use of digital technologies. This includes the eco-design of digital services, responsible usage practices (e.g., storage, email, browsing), sustainable equipment lifecycle management, and building awareness within teams to foster more responsible habits.

At Talsom, we help organizations embed sustainability principles into their digital transformation, ensuring a thoughtful balance between innovation, performance, and social responsibility.

Digital activities are responsible for approximately 4% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and this number continues to rise. From manufacturing and everyday use to end-of-life disposal, digital devices consume significant natural and energy resources. The rapid growth of technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) further increases this footprint, training and running AI models rely on highly energy-intensive data centres.

Reducing your digital footprint is not only essential for meeting climate targets, but also helps you adopt more efficient, ethical, and sustainable business practices.

You’re ready if:

  • Your organization recognizes the importance of reducing the environmental footprint of its digital activities.
  • You are undertaking technological transformation or digital infrastructure projects.
  • You’re looking to create long-term value by strengthening your employer brand and building trust with all your stakeholders.

Conducting a digital footprint assessment is often the first step toward identifying priorities and building a realistic, actionable roadmap.

Here are the key steps to get started:

  • Measure the current environmental impact of your digital ecosystem (e.g., carbon footprint, lifecycle analysis of equipment).
  • Identify areas for improvement such as IT infrastructure, eco-design, or responsible procurement policies.
  • Develop an ESG roadmap with clear and measurable objectives.
  • Raise awareness and train your teams on eco-responsible practices.
  • Implement changes gradually to maximize your positive impact over time.

A digital impact assessment helps evaluate your organization’s footprint related to equipment, usage patterns (e.g., cloud services, email, web browsing), and internal practices. This diagnosis includes a five-level maturity assessment, tangible environmental indicators, and tailored recommendations for improvement.

This kind of initiative fits seamlessly within a broader ESG strategy.

Digital sustainability is an accelerator (not a barrier) to digital transformation. It enables organizations to combine technological innovation with environmental responsibility, in line with growing expectations from clients, talent, and investors.

This approach promotes energy-efficient IT infrastructure, longer-lasting equipment, and long-term value creation.
