ICT Group is certified for the highest level of the CO2 Performance Ladder
- 5 February 2025
QHSE manager Peter Lamers of ICT Group is very happy with the certificate. "We have been certified at level 4 for over ten years. It became increasingly important to take the highest step. That was a tough but also a fun challenge. We are a large company and the certification sets high standards. At level 5 of the CO2 Performance Ladder, you show that you take responsibility not only for your own company but for the entire chain."
ICT Group wants to encourage its customers and suppliers to reduce their CO2 emissions. Chain analyses have shown where the emissions are greatest. "We are going to talk to them explicitly about their sustainability policy," says Lamers. Sustainability is also part of ICT Group's newly drawn up Supplier Code of Conduct.
Sustainability throughout the supply chain
"In terms of CO2 emissions, ICT Group cannot be compared to heavy industry. We supply software and that has a low environmental impact," says QA manager Marion Vrisekoop. "With our smart software solutions, however, we can contribute to sustainability throughout the chain."
As an example, she mentions the functionality developed for the Supply Chain Portal . The construction companies that register their construction logistics there will have insight into the CO2 emissions of the kilometres driven per trip. "In this way, we can help customers make more sustainable choices, such as a more efficient loading of vehicles."
Mobility plan
ICT Group does much more. "In our mobility plan, we want to move towards electric cars. This not only reduces our own emissions, but also reduces the CO2 emissions of the customers our employees work for," says Lamers.
"The CO2 Performance Ladder is a good example of the actions that ICT Group is taking for its ESG policy. That is why we are very happy that we have succeeded in being on the highest step on the CO2 Performance Ladder."

The CO2 Performance Ladder, says Lamers, is a good example of the actions that ICT Group is taking for its ESG policy (Environmental & Social Governance). "That is why we are very happy that we have succeeded in being on the highest step on the CO2 Performance Ladder."
"By showing that we are taking this seriously," Vrisekoop adds, "we are also making ICT Group attractive as an employer. For starters in the labour market, sustainability is an increasingly decisive factor in choosing a company. A young colleague recently said to me that he thinks it's so great that we do a lot in the public transport domain and think sustainability is important."
