The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Reduce energy consumption and lower costs
To meet sustainability goals and drive cost reductions through decreased energy usage, many enterprises are looking to align their sustainability strategy with day-to-day operational metrics. Not only do they lack the ability to accurately assess and measure energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and energy efficiency, but they are also unable to detect areas for improvement.
● 70% of companies have moved beyond the early stages of sustainability and now need to make measurable progress on their established targets.[1]
● 80% of companies state that driving cost reductions and increasing growth are fueling their investments in sustainability.[2]
● 55% of companies worldwide view energy management/decarbonization as their primary focus area for sustainability.2
