1E on Dell

A need to reduce energy consumption without compromising service, safety or flexibility drove Dell’s energy conservation plan - implemented with 1E technology. By deploying NightWatchman and 1E WakeUp across approximately 50,000 client computers, Dell has achieved a 40 percent reduction in energy costs, which translates into US$1.8 million.

The company is also determined to conserve energy within the corporation by improving the power management of approximately 50,000 in-house computers. "We want to take an industry-leading approach to energy conservation," says Jay Taylor, senior engineer global strategist at Dell. "The technology is now available to make significant improvements in conservation, and we set out to deploy that technology to both conserve energy and cut costs."


UK Government Uses 1E NightWatchman

1E is the sole vendor to be awarded a framework contract to provide the UK public sector with ICT power management software. Department of Children, Schools & Families is one of the government departments using NightWatchman under this framework.

UK Government's BID to Reduce IT-Related Carbon Emissions

A new pan-government deal for IT power management solutions, with the Office for Government Commerce (OGC) led by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS), has been awarded to the NightWatchman software product from 1E to enable the automatic shut down of PCs during nonworking hours to reduce energy wastage.

Department of Children, Schools & Families

The UK government’s Department for Children, Schools and Families found that many of its PCs were being left on unnecessarily overnight and at weekends. As part of the target for all government offices to be carbon neutral by 2012, the Department is committed to reducing its carbon footprint and setting an example to others to advocate emission savings.

Devon and Cornwall Constabulary

Deployed by 1E as part of a Devon and Cornwall Police and SunGard Public Sector Facilities Management ICT project, a more robust IT infrastructure plus reduced power consumption proved a winning combination for Devon and Cornwall Constabulary.
NightWatchman is used by twelve more police constabularies, many hospitals, universities and local councils.



Verizon Wireless

With a commitment to driving down its energy costs, Verizon Wireless deployed a range of technologies, including SMS Patch Management Pack (now known as Power & Patch Management Pack) from 1E, across 63,000 managed machines within an infrastructure of 88,000 PCs for its USA call centers. The result is better power management, savings of $1.3 million per year and no compromise on performance.
