10:10 - some ideas are so simple!

Centurion has just signed up to 10:10 (http://www.1010global.org/uk) and made a commitment to reduce our energy usage by 10% over the coming year. Our recent office move has given us a head start as we are now in a much more energy efficient building so we are looking at fine tuning.

We have always looked to minimise our impact and 10:10 will provide us with a great focal point. One area to get attention is our business mileage and as a starting point we needed to know the mileage for last year. This proved to be harder to do that I expected so we are about to improve our expense management system. Managing expenses online, using breatheHR, will give us the tools to monitor mileage and reduce admin.

As a business we are driven to create strong client relationships so it is important for us to meet with clients. However, we plan to use our IT systems to help reduce the need to travel. We have provided online support for a number of years are are adding online 1-1 bite sized training and even online installation services.
