Check EPEAT ratings to make green purchases

In my most recent blog post I recount what I've learned about EPEAT, an IT purchasing resource for those who want to consider environmental factors in their buying decisions.



EPEAT uses a particular ratings model based on the IEEE 1680 standard, and has been adopted as an authoritative buying guideline by the US Federal Government. I'm sure there are lots of other large enterprises that have environmental assessments as part of their purchasing criteria.



Do you believe in buying green hardware? Does your organization have any guidelines in this regard? Do you use EPEAT, or another system?

To simplify the purchase of environmentally certified computer products, and to help usher in a new era of green IT procurement, ProSel /IT is able to automatically identify EPEAT?? and ENERGY STAR?? certified IT products from among the thousands of items typically offered by IT resellers, to aid in green product selection and buyer decision-making.
