Secure and sustainable service quality of HWS recognized by independent certificates

HWS Informationssysteme GmbH is certified according to ISO 14001, and existing certification according to ISO 27001 confirmed

Neustadt an der Aisch, Oct. 26, 2022 – HWS Informationssysteme GmbH, a medium-sized provider of IT services and software development, successfully completed ISO 14001 certification at the end of September. The internationally recognized certificate confirms the group’s efforts to operate sustainably. In addition to the new seal, the audit also confirmed the company’s ISO 27001 certificate for information security management, which it acquired last year.

Both certificates demonstrate a high awareness of the relevance of a practiced quality management system in the company. And prove the integrity in the cooperation with customers, partners, suppliers, and service providers.

Strong focus on sustainability in the new construction of company headquarters

“We of course want to further expand our efforts in the direction of sustainability and environmental protection,” says Bernd Scheurer, founder, and CEO of the group of companies. An essential step in this direction is consolidating the current four Neustadt sites into one central company building in 2024. The resulting savings will particularly affect the areas of energy and water supply as well as wastewater and waste disposal. At the same time, the new building meets KfW standards.

Sustainability across the entire supply and service chain

When selecting suppliers and working with external service providers, the focus is on sustainability. The company also focuses on sustainability and the conservation of resources when providing services. “We are continuing to expand our business with private as well as public cloud installations,” adds Glenn Galea, CSO of the corporate group. “By reducing individual, centralized data centers, our customers are also becoming more sustainable. That’s because, according to a Microsoft survey, hyper-scale data centers are roughly between 22 and 93 percent more energy efficient than traditional on-premises solutions.”
