Abstract
Environmental management is becoming a commodity. Nonetheless it is characterized by stringent operative processes and a missing strategic integration. The strategic integration is only achievable if necessary information is quickly available and is of high quality. Hence a paradigm shift away from operative processes pursued by employees to automation is necessary. Therefore it is necessary to include environmental management in the IT planning processes to foster an integrated information systems architecture. An integrated approach supports an enhanced legal compliance and the identification of cost optimization potentials.
