要点直击 HPE承诺在2022年之前以基于订制、按用付费和消费驱动的即服务模式交付所有的产品组合,这一努力正在帮助客户取得可持续的成效。 HPE始终致力于成为模范企业公民,不仅在环境保护方面处于领先地位,还注重提升道德、包容性和多元化水平,这些努力已经成为HPE在市场中的竞争优势。 HPE为客户和社区提供支持,帮助他们应对疫情期间前所未有的挑战。 本年度ESG报告显示,HPE以“即服务”为核心的战略正在推动可持续的数字化转型 6月3日,HPE公布了2020年《美好生活计划报告》。报告显示,HPE将继续致力于帮助客户推动数字化转型、减少碳足迹、在价值链中的各个环节维护相关方权益,并帮助客户和社区应对新冠肺炎疫情带来的巨大挑战。HPE总裁兼首席执行官安东尼奥·奈里表示:“2020年是史无前例的一年,它清晰地表明了,像HPE这样的企业有责任推动变革,并回馈我们的世界。2020年的挑战促使我们一定要履行合力向善的承诺,利用科技改进人们生活和工作的方式。” 以“即服务”战略为核心,推动客户实现可持续转型 HPE在应对气候危机方面所做出的最大贡献是帮助客户减少IT基础架构有关的碳排放。公司承诺在2022年之前以基于订制、按用付费和消费驱动的即服务模式交付整体产品组合, 这一努力正在帮助客户取得可持续的成效。HPE GreenLake即服务产品组合采用高效能的硬件和解决方案,减少了过度配置,可以帮助客户在五年内平均节省30%的能源。 与环境可持续性直接相关的业务销售额比2019财年增长了44%,达到 8.47 亿美元。一个典型的例子是,HPE与LyondellBassell公司签署了迄今为止最大一笔HPE GreenLake云服务订单,帮助这家世界大型塑料、化学品和炼油公司推动数字化转型,同时提高环境效率。 此外,HPE 有50%的产品组合具有可持续和高效能属性——自2015年以来,其产品组合的能效性提升了300%。例如,HPE SimpliVity服务器为客户节约了70%的能耗,公司有78款超级计算机入选2020年11月绿色超级计算机500强(Green 500)榜单。与此同时,HPE技术再生中心(HPE’s Technology Renewal Centers)回收了300多万件资产——包含报废或弃用的IT设备,而且品牌不限,其中87%的设备经过翻新之后重新焕发了生机。 树立包容和负责任的文化 HPE一直致力于成为模范企业公民,我们不仅大力倡导环境保护,还注重提升道德、包容性和多元化水平,这些努力已经成为我们在市场中的竞争优势。长期以来,HPE非常重视供应链中的劳务问题,参照KnowTheChain针对ICT行业制定的标杆,HPE在劳动力管理方面排名第一,在企业员工权力测评中排名第二。HPE在开发、部署和使用人工智能的过程中,一直将伦理标准视为首要条件——2020 年,HPE制定了一套AI道德准则,指导公司在使用AI相关技术时防范风险和不利影响。HPE还承诺在2050年之前实现全价值链碳中和。与2016年相比,HPE去年由运营产生的温室气体(GHG)排放量减少了62%,提前5年实现了减排55%的科学基础目标。HPE的运营用电有44%来自可再生能源,并且通过持续加强与供应商的合作,帮助他们制定科学的减排目标,在采购、运输物流和制造环节上实现供应链的节能减排。 HPE长期以来一直倡导包容性和多元化,2020年在美国爆发的种族不公现象,促使HPE与社会一起要求变革。为履行公司无条件包容的文化承诺,首席执行官安东尼奥·奈里组建了公司的“包容性与多元化理事会”,由其担任主席,参与公司内部跨群体互动,并就多样性、平等和包容性等议题设定了远大目标。 HPE董事会是业内最多元化的董事会之一,54%的董事都带有一个或多个多元化背景。2020年,女性员工数量在HPE全球各层级包括技术岗位和管理岗位均有增长。与科技行业基准相比,在全球性别表征以及美国族裔多元化两个类别中,HPE的表现都处于领先地位。 在纷扰的一年中,我们对客户和社区的支持显得尤为重要 合力向善 在纷扰的一年中,我们对客户和社区的支持显得尤为重要。新冠疫情使社会陷入停滞并阻碍了世界经济的发展,值此危难之际,HPE金融服务率先行动,提供了20亿美元的融资,帮助因疫情而陷入困境的公司渡过难关,同时应对因突然采用远程办公方式在连接和其他基础架构方面出现的新需求。随着疫情的蔓延,世界许多地区的数字化能力差异突显,为此,HPE向学校、医院和其他机构捐赠了价值2600万美元的Aruba网络工具包,并且改造了南亚的数十所电子医疗中心,扩大了针对偏远地区的检测和远程医疗服务。 此外,HPE还将自有技术和创新成果投入抗疫之中。HPE向“新冠病毒高性能计算联盟”(COVID-19 Supercomputing…
