As a Microsoft Gold Partner, IT.ie shares Microsoft’s technology vision and commitment, understanding the pivotal role technology can play in addressing broader societal challenges. To drive this Microsoft have launched the Microsoft Partner Pledge which focuses on the following four critical goals:
Digital Skills
Helping Ireland to prepare for the challenges of the Fourth Industrial Revolution through Microsoft’s Digital Skills program. We will act as ambassadors of Microsoft Irelands Digital Skills initiatives and support the development of digital skills via work experience opportunities and internships. We will also be providing opportunities for staff to undertake new digital skills training.
Diversity
We will focus on inclusive recruitment and promotion processes and practices, striving for a strong representation across all levels.
We are an innovative, customer first provider of Managed IT Services and our key competitive advantage is our people.
Responsible and Ethical AI
Ensuring Artificial Intelligence is developed and implemented in responsible and ethical ways, as we set out in AI for good and Future Computed
Sustainability
We are committed to sustainability and reducing your carbon footprint. In 2020 we began the process of decarbonisation. We first set a goal of replacing our existing diesel fleet with electric vehicles by 2025. We are delighted to say that we are ahead of this goal and today 60% of our fleet is fully electric. We are currently in negotiations with sustainable power providers and expect to have solar panels installed on the roof of our premises in the first quarter of 2022 to charge our EV fleet and hopefully supplement the supply of energy to our premises. We will also look at other ways to utilise technology for sustainability.
