Booz Allen’s sustainability practices and services begin with making green choices for our own enterprise and extend well beyond the firm’s walls—through our people, our spirit of service, and our work with clients.
Our Sustainability Steering Committee—made up of senior leaders—ensures that sustainable concepts are fully incorporated into facilities infrastructure, policies, and practices. For instance, we work with property management companies to reduce our radiant heat load in offices and buildings across the firm.
Employee-led and -focused sustainability practices affect the firm’s carbon footprint on a grassroots level. Not only do we recycle and upcycle various products, we’ve instituted innovative policies allowing staff to work closer to where they live. Booz Allen has won several awards in the Washington, DC, area for our recycling and commuting programs.
We apply lessons learned through our internal sustainability practices to the firm’s pro bono and volunteer efforts with non-profit organizations. Our award-winning partnership with the Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts is motivating other arts organizations to adopt environmental practices. Our staff also spend countless hours volunteering with environmentally focused organizations like the Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanup.
In our work with clients, we deliver groundbreaking solutions that address global environmental challenges while promoting responsible consumption of resources. For instance, Booz Allen collaborated with the US Green Building Council on the “Green Jobs Study.” And our Green Pulse Check methodology evaluates organizations’ current sustainability programs.
We pledge to continue to create a sustainable environment for our clients, communities, workplaces, and the world.
