For almost two decades, Cisco has set transparent, publicly declared objectives as benchmarks, diligently tracking our progress and holding ourselves accountable. Additionally, we\u2019ve developed comprehensive programs to empower customers to achieve their sustainability goals.<\/p>\n We understand that sustainability is a collaborative effort, and success requires leveraging our extensive partner network. Collaboration is essential, and it\u2019s through working with our partners that we foster innovation and gain support across the value chain. To this end, Cisco has developed several sustainability-focused programs that enable partners to offer customers end-to-end solutions designed with sustainability in mind, while also enhancing deal profitability.<\/p>\n Cisco has embarked on an ambitious journey towards sustainability, aiming to achieve net-zero status<\/a> by the year 2040. This goal has not been mere words but supported by continuous improvement and innovation across our entire business landscape. Our primary focus has been on delivering tangible, data-validated advancements that lead us closer to the realization of all our sustainability goals, ultimately culminating in our net-zero goal.<\/p>\n These efforts have not gone unnoticed. The approval of our net-zero goal by Science Based Targets initiative\u00a0(SBTi) stands as a testament to the robustness of our plan, the allocation of resources, and the soundness of our strategic approach. This validation confirms our determination to truly meet these targets, helping to forge a path towards a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n As for our partners, whether you are just starting this journey or already investing, there are four key Cisco programs to consider, through which we work together to meet our sustainability objectives.<\/p>\n Launched in 2022, the Environmental Sustainability Specialization (ESS<\/a>) equips partners with Cisco-specific sustainability knowledge. It covers key sustainability terms, the technology behind our Sustainable Solutions<\/a>, Cisco\u2019s commitment to a circular economy, and supporting programs. Only one person in the company needs to complete this training and exam. For others in the partner organization, we have additional efforts to educate partner sellers on these topics. If you\u2019re not the one going through formal training, we\u2019ll summarize the partner programs you should leverage in this blog.<\/p>\n Cisco\u2019s Takeback and Reuse<\/a> program is integral to CEO Chuck Robbins\u2019 commitment to reclaim 100% of customer gear at no cost while providing partners with discount incentives. This program is an important step towards a circular economy, ensuring the responsible end-of-life management of returned equipment, with a remarkable 99.9% material recycling or reuse success rate.<\/p>\n Partners benefit from this initiative through a stackable discount of up to 7% on Refresh deals, applied to new equipment when replacing older gear. To learn more, visit our Takeback and Reuse Program<\/a> page. Please note that this incentive is exclusively available to partners with ESS certification and program enrollment, so ensure your company is specialized to take advantage of it.<\/p>\n With Takeback products, we seize the opportunity to remanufacture gear based on their life stage, making them available through the Cisco Refresh<\/a> program. This refurbished gear supports the circular economy, meeting rigorous quality and performance standards, and is readily available with no lead times. It\u2019s cost-effective and environmentally friendly, and has a lower carbon impact than purchasing newly manufactured products. Explore available products on the Cisco Refresh list \u2013 the more we take back, the more we can offer!<\/p>\n Cisco Green Pay<\/a>, through Cisco Capital, offers a flexible payment plan for solutions designed with sustainability in mind, covering hardware, software, and services with a set contract term. At term\u2019s end, Cisco reclaims the hardware to support the circular economy, helping support a more sustainable lifecycle. Cisco\u2019s ownership guarantees gear return, providing a consistent refresh cycle and benefits akin to the Takeback program. All of this is offered to the customer, requiring minimal effort from partners. Plus, customers receive a 5% discount when opting for Green Pay.<\/p>\n Ready to begin? First, become specialized under the ESS and enroll in the Takeback Program. Inform your Cisco team of your interest. We have partner sustainability specialists to assist you in integrating sustainability into your sales approach and boosting your confidence in discussing your customers\u2019 sustainability goals. Prepare for these conversations by researching your customers\u2019 public sustainability goals on their websites.<\/p>\n Although we\u2019ve made progress in reaching our sustainability goals, we recognize that much more work needs to be done to ensure that people and ecosystems can thrive together on a livable planet. There\u2019s no time like the present to get started.<\/p>\n For further information, visit our Environmental Sustainability Products and Solutions webpage<\/a> or consult your Cisco team for specialist guidance.<\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0Cisco has developed several programs that enable partners to offer customers end-to-end solutions designed with sustainability in mind.\u00a0\u00a0Read More<\/a>\u00a0Cisco Blogs\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" <\/p>\n Embracing sustainability and reducing our environmental footprint has been a longstanding priority at Cisco.
