Sustainability

Verantwortung

Sustainability is part of our company DNA. DPS has always been committed to using resources carefully. We also make this approach transparent: we report on our sustainability performance on a voluntary basis and also have ourselves audited externally.

Our sustainability strategy is based on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and our commitment to the climate protection goals of the Paris Agreement; our business activities are committed to the goals set out therein. As part of this, we established a corporate carbon footprint management system for the first time in 2023.

We will continue to refine our sustainability efforts. Our goal and incentive is to master the ambitious challenges of our time in dialogue with our stakeholders.

Scoring

DPS undergoes an external assessment of its own social, environmental and economic behaviour. This serves as a starting point for us with the aim of further developing the measures we have taken and critically reviewing our existing practices on an ongoing basis. The results of our audits and sustainability certifications are available under Certifications.

We also publish the DNK report on corporate sustainability on a voluntary basis. This contains extensive information on DPS’s sustainability performance. The key ESG indicators are based on the GRI standards, which facilitates direct comparison with other companies.

Diversity
Social responsibility

Diversity

Bringing together the best minds, developing individual strengths, respecting diversity – this is the foundation on which great ideas are born.
DPS brings together experts from around two dozen nations in a lively, productive and motivating working environment.

 

 

Social responsibility

Every year, DPS donates five-figure sums to institutions that are particularly concerned with the welfare of people who have a harder time in life than others.

Since 2018, DPS has been involved in Xavin GmbH, which arranges loans to charitable associations, foundations and other organisations. As part of this commitment, DPS has already invested a six-figure amount.

Environment and climate protection

DPS strives to minimise the negative environmental impact of its own business activities. This includes measures such as:

  • Use of green electricity
  • Charging points for e-cars
  • Promotion of public transport (job tickets)
  • Energy-saving measures (electricity and water consumption)
  • Waste separation
  • Environmentally friendly disposal by waste management companies
  • Paperless working
  • Preference for online meetings vs. business trips
  • Investment in communication technology (e.g. video conferencing systems)

 

When it comes to climate protection, DPS focuses on avoiding CO2 instead of offsetting it. Avoiding unnecessary business trips, incentives to reduce the company car fleet and a constant modernisation of the hardware infrastructure in favour of more economical devices are the most important elements for an IT and consulting company.
