Information tool to facilitate green procurement
After 3 editions of ECMA TR/70, decided to:
Harmonise with IT ECO declaration
Publish as ECMA-370 Standard in June 2006
Also known as TED
Why did we harmonise? : Rue du Rhône 114 - CH-1204 Geneva - T: +41 22 849 6000 - F: +41 22 849 6001 - www.ecma-international.org 9 Why did we harmonise? Combine the strengths of both successful declarations
Meet future customer needs e.g. consistent communication to customers EU wide (worldwide, in different languages)
Save costs: several companies do both or more reduce development/update efforts EU basis for green procurement (e.g. EKU)
Prepare for IEC standardisation (TC108) as consequence of eco design standardisation (ECMA-341/IEC 62075)

New: Typical Energy Consumption (TEC) – ES imaging
Synch with IEC 62075 CDV – energy consumption – power cannot be consumed
Simplification
Removed „special“ national legal requirements
Minor changes due to feedback during implemention
Open Issues:
How to improve review / change process
Community like process with WIKI? On Ecma / IT Eco Declaration web?
Encourage timely input by other stakeholders like customers, IEC, NGO, …

Is being continuously improved in a transparent and qualitative process since 1996
Is used by the majority of IT companies (IT eco) - reduces the need for eco labels - is suitable to answer demand in green public tenders - meets some of the basic principles according to the EU IPP or EuP Directives
So, ask for ECMA-370 (IT eco) declarations … … let us know what you think and if anything is missing
