Raytheon has been selected as a top 10 green-IT organisation by IDG’s Computerworld magazine for 2011. The publication has recognised Raytheon’s innovative strategies and practices in information technology that deliver measurable results in sustainability.

“Raytheon’s IT organisation will continue to be a leader and key partner to our other enterprise functions as we work together to meet and exceed our sustainability goals,” said Raytheon Vice President and Chief Information Officer Rebecca Rhoads. “This distinction validates our commitment to IT operational efficiencies that enable business growth, and to developing a culture that values sustainability in everything we do.”

Raytheon’s green-IT programme has been the catalyst for various energy-saving initiatives across the company; this year’s focus on improving networking and telecommunications infrastructure led to the 2011 Computerworld recognition.
