Driving the decarbonization of IT services across Crédit Agricole entities
As a shared IT infrastructure provider for Crédit Agricole entities, CAGIP faces a dual challenge: reducing its own digital footprint while supporting the sustainability strategies of its internal clients.
Decarbonising IT services requires reliable, granular and up-to-date data, beyond traditional estimations. CAGIP turned to Aguaro to structure and accelerate this transition.

Challenge
Before adopting Aguaro, CAGIP initiated a carbon footprint assessment using internal tools and Excel-based consolidations. While this approach laid the groundwork, it quickly showed its limits:
Manual, fragmented data scattered across teams and systems
Lack of visibility into key emission drivers and actionable priorities
No common methodology to support coordination across entities and stakeholders
Solution
CAGIP selected Aguaro to industrialize its Green IT approach:
A unified platform to consolidate carbon data across all digital services — infrastructure, workplace, cloud, telecoms
Precise, functional-level insights to empower operational teams
A reporting engine enabling scenario modeling, simulations, and internal benchmarking aligned with group decarbonization goals
Thanks to a close collaboration between teams, the solution was fully deployed within just a few weeks.
Results
A common reference system to drive Green IT management across Crédit Agricole entities
Faster understanding and clearer visibility into each digital service’s footprint — enabling better prioritization of actions
Strong engagement from operational teams through actionable, function-level indicators
A scalable model to expand carbon accounting to additional scopes (cloud, SaaS, external services)
