Carbon Control Software, a leading Scottish IT company, has underlined its commitment to retaining its position at the cutting edge of carbon reduction technology with a senior promotion.
Neil Burnett, who has worked for the company for almost two years, has been promoted to the role of Technical Manager. He will be responsible for overseeing the development of the company’s Care Taker software and working with clients to ensure the suite of applications are successfully implemented and adopted.
Reinhardt Fuhrmann, sales director at Carbon Control Software said: “Neil has played an integral role in the development of Care Taker which has already received fantastic feedback from the companies who have been trialling it. We are delighted to promote him to this new position and have every confidence that he will play a crucial role as the product is rolled out to domestic and international markets.”
The company, which is based in Golden Square, Aberdeen, recently launched Care Taker to the market place. The software can reduce an organisation’s PC power consumption by as much as 68% each year. Saving an average sized company thousands of pounds each year while also cutting carbon emissions on average by 141kg per computer, per year.
The technology has undergone rigorous trials with a variety of private and public sector organisations and offers a highly cost effective solution with a typical return on investment of less than six month. Following the trials, a number of companies are now enjoying the benefits that Care Taker provides.
The software monitors activity on a PC day and night and when the computer is not being used automatically applies a number of checks before powering down to standby. It has been specifically designed with various user-friendly features to ensure that the end users are not inconvenienced.
A key part of the software is the reporting function that enables companies to see the cost savings being made across the organisation and to plan sustainable energy policies for the future. The Care Taker suite of applications also provides an option that can assist organisations with their Health and Safety compliance.
Neil, who holds both a BSc Honours in Computing for Business and E commerce and a MSC with commendation for E Technology, says he is looking forward to the challenges ahead.
He said: “It’s fantastic to have the opportunity to work for a company that is really leading the way in this area. I have thoroughly enjoyed being able to put the skills and experience I gained in the academic environment into practical application. As companies come under mounting pressure to reduce their carbon emissions, there will be an ever increasing need for technology to provide solutions and I look forward to working with organisations to achieve this.”
Carbon Control Software has a dedicated and talented team of software engineers who have the experience and ability to provide innovative approaches to management software and support clients who are using the system.
