Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi)

We committed under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to set a near-term target by 2025 at the latest. As our new Climate Roadmap evolves, we will integrate net-zero objectives aligned with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C goal while maintaining our reduction trajectory on Scopes 1, 2, and 3 under the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol.

Climate strategy

We integrate environmental responsibility into how we conduct business, manage our operations and support ecosystems in the communities in which we live and work. We demonstrate our commitment by conducting our activities responsibly and applying environmental best practices throughout our operations. This mainly involves our office operations, data center activities, procurement of IT assets and business travel.

Our climate strategy includes the following:

Resource Management
  • Follow the three Rs (reduce, reuse, and recycle) targeting e-waste and general waste
  • Use eco-efficient cooling to reduce data center water consumption
Energy
  • Shift our data centers and offices to renewable energy
  • Reduce energy consumption
Travel
  • Transition to electric and hybrid vehicles
  • Reduce emissions impact of CGI Partners' travel
Supply chain
  • Help reduce the environmental impact of our supply chain
  • Promote circular economy principles
Stakeholder collaboration
  • Develop CGI Partners awareness, engagement and empowerment
  • Support and collaborate with our clients on environmental objectives
  • Pursue activities with communities and organizations

Raising climate awareness across our global operations

To engage and empower our workforce, we provide awareness training on sustainable practices. In addition, countries in each strategic business unit (SBU) take action to raise awareness at all levels. We also pursue activities with multiple communities and organizations. For instance, aware of the positive impact of forests on biodiversity, we planted more than 57,000 trees this year with CGI Partners and clients in all our geographies.
