Not that long ago, having vendors focused on sustainability was a “good-to-have” kind of thing. Today, organizations expect their vendors to have sustainable thinking.

Responsible procurement isn’t just a buzzword; it’s essential for business growth. Choosing vendors committed to sustainability will ultimately lead to cost savings and environmental benefits for both customers and end-users, reinforcing the importance of responsible procurement.

Where do you start?

  • Conduct supplier audits: Regularly audit suppliers for environmental compliance.

  • Implement green criteria: Include criteria like energy efficiency and waste reduction in procurement processes.

  • Encourage vendor innovation: Collaborate with vendors to develop sustainable solutions.

Fast-track your sustainability goals with Paradime

At Paradime, we’re committed to helping your company achieve its sustainability goals faster by leveraging EC2 instances powered by AWS Graviton processors. These processors are incredibly energy-efficient, offering up to 40% better price performance than traditional x86-based instances, used by, for example, dbt™ Labs.

This also ensure superior performance per watt, reducing the number of servers needed to handle the workload. Fewer servers mean lower electricity usage and reduced cooling costs, perfectly aligning with achieving sustainability goals.

By embracing innovative and sustainable practices, we can provide our customers with more power at lower costs, thereby reducing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for their end-customers.

Simply put, we use less energy and have a smaller carbon footprint, directly contributing to you reaching your sustainability and net-zero goals. Win-win!

Legacy brands are lagging behind

Vendors stuck on legacy infrastructure not only slow down your progress; it regresses it. Their customers will face higher costs, and struggle to meet their sustainability goals due to inefficient systems and slow innovation adaptation. By choosing vendors with laser eyes on speed and innovation, you can avoid these issues, while making a forward-thinking choice benefiting both your bottom line and the environment. Again, win-win!

Conclusion

Paradime accelerates your sustainability journey with the help of AWS Graviton-powered EC2 instances, offering better price performance and reduced carbon emissions.

So it’s time to say goodbye to legacy systems and choose Paradime for smarter pricing and a greener future. It’s a win for your company's wallet and, even more importantly, the Planet.
