Tampa, FL | February 6, 2026 — AVI-SPL, the leading global provider of digital enablement solutions, today announces a major milestone in its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) strategy: a shift over the past 12 months from aspirational goals to a fully embedded ESG operating system that integrates sustainability into core business functions and accelerates sustainability outcomes. This evolution positions ESG as a market differentiator, helping enterprise customers meet their sustainability targets faster, with greater consistency and confidence.
While regulatory momentum has slowed regionally, sustainability commitments across global enterprises continue to grow. Many face a common challenge: turning ESG ambition into operational execution amid data fragmentation, organizational silos, and supply chain complexity. Operating at the nexus of technology, infrastructure, and global delivery, AVI-SPL addresses these same challenges daily, making sustainable execution at scale a priority for itself and its customers.
“Enterprise customers need partners who can execute sustainability at scale,” said Dale Bottcher, Chief Revenue Officer at AVI-SPL. “By embedding ESG into how we operate day to day, we’ve built a model that helps customers reduce risk, improve efficiency, and make measurable progress toward their sustainability goals, directly through how their technology is designed, delivered, and supported.”
At the core of this transformation is a cross-functional ESG operating system that touches every part of the enterprise:
- Operations & Real Estate: AVI-SPL reduced its global real estate footprint by 4% and implemented a hub-and-spoke Quality Control Center (QCC) model, improving deployment speed and consistency while lowering emissions.
- Supply Chain & Logistics: Route optimization and operational efficiencies cut fuel use by 17% in the U.S., reducing Scope 1 emissions. AI-driven demand planning enhanced inbound logistics, lowering upstream Scope 3 emissions, while shipment consolidation through QCCs reduced downstream impacts, shrinking embedded carbon without disrupting customer workflows.
- Customer Enablement: New Eco-Friendly Reference Designs help customers make lower-impact technology choices. Nationwide Electronics Recycling Services offer responsible end-of-life management and transparent reporting for retired AV and UC equipment, with expansion to the EU and UK planned for 2026.
- People-Powered Execution: ESG integration is reinforced through a global Green Team of employee volunteers, expanded inclusive hiring practices, and community engagement programs such as Gives Back Month, all creating a culture of sustainability.
- Carbon & Data Integrity: AVI-SPL achieved reductions in Scope 1 and 2 emissions and significantly enhanced Scope 3 data precision by integrating product carbon footprint (PCF) data from major suppliers, laying the groundwork for Science Based Target setting and improved customer reporting.
- Governance & Trust: Strengthened governance includes an expanded Global Supplier Code of Conduct with monitoring, SOC 2 Type II certification, global ethics training, climate risk assessment, and the launch of an enterprise AI governance framework, ensuring consistent oversight at scale.
Together, these initiatives represent a strategic pivot: ESG is now built into AVI-SPL’s operating model. By embedding sustainability into how it works and delivers, AVI-SPL empowers enterprise customers to meet their goals with less friction and risk, making ESG execution a shared competitive advantage.
