The Readiness Level of Universitas Pendidikan Ganesha in Implementing Green IT Referring to The G-Readiness Framework
The development of technology is happening so rapidly, giving a positive impact in various aspects of life. However, despite its benefits, technology also has a negative impact on the environment. The increased use of IT devices leads to an increase in the global carbon footprint. Green IT emerges as a solution to reduce environmental impact through resource efficiency and energy-saving behavior. Undiksha, with the vision of Tri Hita Karana, has taken steps towards Green IT, such as the use of power-efficient computers and paperless behavior support systems. However, the readiness of Undiksha’s academic community in adopting the Green IT concept is still a question. This study aims to measure Undiksha’s level of readiness in implementing Green IT, by referring to the G-Readiness Framework (attitude, policy, practice, technology, and governance). The questionnaire was distributed to the Undiksha academic community, and the data collected was analyzed descriptively. Based on the results of the readiness measurement analysis, it was found that the leadership respondents were ready, the implementation of Green IT could be continued, the general community respondents and IT professionals were in a ready condition, but needed improvement. Although ready in general, there are several aspects that need to be improved, such as alternative energy policies, and IT waste recycling measures. Furthermore, SWOT analysis was carried out to formulate strategies to improve the readiness of Green IT implementation at Undiksha. The recommendations include socialisation strategies, centralised policies, equal distribution of facilities, and increased paperless behaviour.
