Sustainability

Good for our customers, good for society, good for us

Digitalisation is bringing about big changes within society and within business. As a provider of software and digitalisation services, we are at the very centre of these developments and are helping shape them. 

We understand very well the great responsibility that this places on us and we do our best to act accordingly – in the planning, design and implementation of our solutions as well as in how we go about our work on a daily basis. 

Economic sustainability

XITASO is a company that is structured and run based on the idea of sustainability while operating in a complex and highly dynamic business environment. We are working to ensure that the business will survive and be able to achieve long-term economic growth and success. This means security and the ability to plan ahead for both our employees and our customers.

Social
sustainability

We believe in a culture of collaborative, self-organised working. This approach means that provide space where people can develop to their full potential. It is of great importance to us that everyone can work both as part of the team and as a individual and that we provide an inspirational, healthy, and family-friendly working environment. We invest in further developing the skills of XITASO employees and are involved with various social projects in the form of sponsorships, donations and personal engagement. We reflect on our activities and act in accordance with ethical and moral standards and in the interests of society as a whole.

Ecological sustainability

As a business, we are aware of our responsibility in terms of the environment and our ecological footprint. We have been measuring our carbon footprint every year since 2020 and working hard to identify and actively take measures to reduce it. A XITASO community has been created to provide a space where all XITASO employees can put forward their own thoughts and ideas for achieving our goal of becoming a carbon-neutral company.

For us at XITASO, sustainability in the IT sector means above all using technology responsibly and with a view to the future. By creating effective solutions within our holacratic structure, we are actively committed to a more environmentally friendly digital world. I invite you to join us in shaping positive change.

  3. Establishment of “XECO” as an official community for promoting sustainability within XITASO. 
  4. Supplying our largest site, “Augsburg Allee” with green electricity starting in July 2022. 
  5. Replacement of neon lighting at our Augsburg Ausstrasse site with energy-efficient LED lighting.
