Lenovo has introduced a groundbreaking sustainability tool, the Intelligent Sustainability Solutions Advisor (LISSA), powered by AI. This innovative platform enables businesses to make informed, data-driven decisions when purchasing IT equipment, with a focus on sustainability. LISSA provides valuable insights into the environmental impact of IT investments throughout their lifecycle, offering tailored solutions that align with the company's sustainability objectives. Leveraging Generative AI, LISSA offers visibility into carbon emissions associated with various Lenovo sustainability initiatives, including TruScale Device as a Service (DaaS), Asset Recovery, packaging optimizations, eco-friendly shipping options, extending product lifecycles, certified refurbishment, and more.
Furthermore, LISSA facilitates the simulation of various solution paths and pinpointing potential opportunities for reducing emissions, thereby assisting customers in achieving their IT decarbonization objectives within the digital workplace. According to a recent survey, 87% of executives expressed confidence in AI's ability to tackle climate challenges, uncover insights for mitigating global greenhouse gas emissions, and forge new avenues for climate action. By providing expedited access to sustainability insights in IT and recommendations powered by Generative AI, Lenovo supports businesses in crafting measurable pathways toward IT decarbonization and sustainable outcomes.
“At Lenovo, we’re keen to underscore that sustainability is a business imperative and top of mind among leaders across all industries”, said Claudia Contreras, Executive Director of Global Sustainability Services for Lenovo. “A new capability in our growing sustainability portfolio, LISSA arms customers with data and AI-powered recommendations to guide their IT purchasing decisions. By bringing sustainability attributes front and centre, we enable customers to unlock potential emission reduction opportunities and deploy IT solutions that help drive sustainability goals”.
Lenovo has pledged to reach net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050, adopting science-based targets endorsed by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) Net-Zero Standard. In tandem, through LISSA, Lenovo is dedicated to enabling customers to make informed, sustainable IT decisions supported by data, thereby fostering tangible and measurable results.
“There is no one defined path; each customer is on their unique sustainability journey and needs access to data to measure progress. Lenovo aims to help customers make real progress with data-led sustainability insights. AI-enabled recommendations and data intelligence will help plan and optimize IT investments with sustainability in mind. Lenovo can help organizations of any size compare multiple IT solutions in real-time, design an end-to-end IT solution that fits budget, computing, and help support sustainability goals”, Contreras said.
