ESG Commitment

Last updated: August 2026

1. Why this page is short

DITAP is a services company, not an industrial one: our direct footprint doesn't come from plants or fleets, but from how we design, deploy, and operate technology. That's why you won't find here — so we're not going to show you a sustainability report with emissions charts we don't measure or certifications we don't hold. This page honestly describes what we do today in our own operations and in the work we deliver to clients, and what we still don't do.

If you're looking for a CSRD-style report with audited indicators, this isn't it — DITAP isn't required to that level of reporting at its current size, and we'd rather not simulate a report that no real data backs up. We'd rather say little and have it be true than say a lot and have it be marketing.

2. Environmental — Equipment reuse and lifecycle

A large part of our infrastructure work involves replacing switches, access points, UPS units, and network equipment that reached the end of their recommended service life. Instead of treating every retired piece of hardware as automatic waste:

  • We assess whether the replaced equipment can be reused at another site for the same client (for example, a switch retired from the main site that's still fit for a branch with lower load).
  • When a client's equipment no longer has internal use, we prioritize resale or donation channels over disposal, when the hardware's condition allows it.
  • In our own operations (work equipment, laptops, field tools), we extend hardware lifespan instead of refreshing it on a commercial cycle, and we reuse components when technically viable.

    • Quantitative tracking of e-waste avoided per project is on our sustainability roadmap; we will publish it once the measurement is consistent.

    3. Environmental — Energy efficiency in network design

    When we design network infrastructure (structured cabling, switching, UPS, server rooms), energy efficiency is a design criterion, not an afterthought:

  • We recommend PoE+ equipment and managed switches with efficient power profiles instead of oversizing hardware "just in case."
  • We design VLAN segmentation and network architecture to reduce unnecessary traffic and, with it, the workload (and power draw) of core equipment.
  • In server rooms and racks, we size cooling and UPS to actual projected load, not to generic catalog figures — oversizing UPS and cooling is a common energy waste we actively avoid.
  • For remote sites, we favor solutions like Starlink combined with smart power management over diesel generators running permanently as the primary backup.

    • This is a design practice, not a formal energy certification — we don't claim to meet a standard like LEED or BREEAM, because we don't hold one.

    4. Environmental — Remote work and operational footprint

    DITAP operates in a distributed way across Argentina, Chile, and Italy, with remote work as the default model except where work requires physical presence (installations, cabling, cameras). This has a direct, qualitatively real environmental effect, even though we haven't formally quantified it:

  • No large central office to heat, cool, and maintain year-round.
  • Less daily commuting compared to a fixed-office model for the whole team.
  • Remote coordination with clients (preliminary surveys, project follow-up, support) that reduces trips that would otherwise default to in-person.

    • We don't have a figure for tons of CO2 avoided — that would be a made-up number. What we can say with certainty is that the remote model is structural to how we operate, not an occasional "work from home" policy.

    5. Social

    We are designing our social impact program for the three regions where we operate — focused on technical training and technology access for SMBs. We prefer to announce commitments once they have a budget and an owner, and to sustain them over time: when the program is active, it will be published on this page.

    6. Governance

    The "G" in ESG is developed in detail in our code of conduct: integrity, conflicts of interest, client data confidentiality, compliance posture, and whistleblowing channel. See Corporate Governance & Code of Conduct (link at the bottom of this page).
