Crown Resorts benefits from Sustainability Benchmark and reduces energy consumption and costs in ICT

"Fujitsu has helped to provide Crown with the tools the business needs to begin the journey towards sustainability, with a goal of reducing energy and gas consumption by at least ten per cent."

Jonathan Wood Group Manager, Sustainability, Crown Resorts

The customer

Crown is one of Australia’s largest entertainment groups. Its core businesses and investments are in the integrated resorts sector. Crown wholly owns and operates two of Australia’s leading resorts, Crown Melbourne Entertainment Complex and Crown Perth Entertainment Complex. Crown also fully owns and operates Crown Aspinall’s in London. It also has a portfolio of other gaming investments that complement its business.

The challenge

As one of Australia’s largest employers, Crown Resorts wanted to take its environmental responsibility seriously. However, when it came to ICT, the company lacked the tools and insight into how it could best use technology.

The solution

The Fujitsu ICT Sustainability Benchmark produced a current state of Crown Resorts’ technology use, including a benchmark of its ICT Sustainability readiness and maturity relative to Fujitsu’s database of over 2,500 other organisations across all industry sectors in nine countries.

The benefit
