Lenovo is solidifying its position as a trusted partner in sustainable IT solutions with the launch of the Lenovo Intelligent Sustainability Solutions Advisor (LISSA). This AI-powered tool empowers businesses to make data-driven IT decisions that minimize their environmental footprint.

LISSA acts as a one-stop shop for businesses seeking to make informed and environmentally conscious IT choices. According to Lenovo, here’s how LISSA empowers users:

• Actionable Sustainability Insights: Gain a clear understanding of your estimated emissions impact across the entire IT lifecycle, from hardware acquisition to disposal. This includes factors like material extraction, manufacturing, transportation, and product use.
• Customized Solutions: Develop tailored plans that align with your specific sustainability goals. LISSA considers your industry, business size, and existing IT infrastructure to recommend the most impactful solutions.
• AI-Powered Recommendations with Transparency: Leverage the power of Generative AI to explore the environmental impact of various Lenovo sustainability solutions. This includes options like TruScale Device as a Service (DaaS), Asset Recovery programs, and energy-efficient packaging choices. LISSA provides clear data on the estimated carbon emissions associated with each option, ensuring transparency in your decision-making process.

LISSA goes beyond simple data analysis. It simulates various IT solution pathways, identifying potential opportunities to reduce emissions and support your organization’s decarbonization goals in the digital workplace. This aligns perfectly with a recent survey where 87% of executives believe AI can play a crucial role in combating climate change by mitigating greenhouse gas emissions.

“Sustainability isn’t just a trend; it’s a core business principle,” emphasizes Claudia Contreras, Executive Director of Global Sustainability Services for Lenovo. “LISSA equips customers with the data and AI-powered recommendations they need to make informed IT purchasing decisions with environmental impact in mind.”

Lenovo remains committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, and LISSA is a key tool in empowering its customers to join them on this journey.

Contreras acknowledges that “there’s no one-size-fits-all approach” to sustainability. LISSA caters to this by providing each customer with a personalized sustainability journey. Businesses of all sizes can leverage LISSA’s data-driven insights and AI-powered recommendations to optimize their IT investments while prioritizing environmental responsibility. This empowers them to not only compare IT solutions in real-time but also design solutions that align with both budgetary and sustainability goals.

With tools like LISSA, Lenovo is taking a proactive approach to building a more sustainable future for the IT industry and beyond.
