Redwood City, Calif.-based Hara announced Monday that Intuit Inc. (NASDAQ: INTU) has selected Hara’s Environmental and Energy Management (EEM) software to manage the company’s natural resource consumption and environmental impact.
The announcement adds to Hara’s growing list of high-profile customers, including The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE: KO) and News Corporation (Nasdaq: NWS) and the City of Palo Alto.
Hara EEM will enable Intuit to collect and manage energy and emissions
information related to the company’s energy usage, waste, travel, and
materials across its global facilities and data centers as well as for
its flagship Quicken®, QuickBooks® and TurboTax® products and connected
services.
Hara EEM says its software also allows companies to identify objectives and metrics, find cost savings
opportunities, plan and implement energy reduction strategies, monitor
the results and impact of its efforts, and share best practices across
the organization.
Intuit has stated a goal of reducing its carbon footprint by 15% in 2012 from their 2007 levels.
“Hara is thrilled to add Intuit to the rapidly growing list of world class organizations that have adopted our solution,” said Amit Chatterjee, CEO and founder of Hara.
Hara, which is backed by venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, unveiled its software-as-a-service in June 2009.
