Corporations interested in “Going Green” have extended their focus to their wireless programs. Enterprise organizations are achieving measurable environmental impact as they eliminate mountains of printed invoices, recycle wireless devices and realize major costs savings through process efficiency.
mindWireless, a technology and outsourcing firm, helps its clients improve their wireless management practices, including solutions which reduce the corporation’s environmental impact.
Recent examples from several Fortune 1000 clients include:
- A six-foot mountain of paper bills from a single carrier that arrived monthly in boxes for a global manufacturing client has been reduced to a single CD, eliminating over 400,000 printed pages per year.
- An industrial client eliminated 620,000 paper timesheets annually by implementing electronic timesheet entry via mobile device.
- The sales organization of an energy client uses air cards, enabling telecommuting for 500 employees, reducing their commuting time and fuel usage.
- A wireless device recycling program has been implemented at a nationwide retailer that now redeploys over 1,000 devices annually that were previously thrown away.
“The environmental results that are emerging from our wireless expense management programs are surprising even to us,” said David Wise, co-founder and managing director of mindWireless. “Our clients are adopting formal programs for recycling wireless devices and mindWireless has adapted the Wireless Device Procurement portal for each client to give employees an option to fix and return, replace but redeploy or send a damaged device out for recycling elsewhere.”
