WHY ARE WE FOCUSING ON ELECTRONICS?

• Lack of cohesive management system in place to improve the life cycle management practices of electronic equipment
• Need to enhance the infrastructure for the reuse and recycling of obsolete electronics

THE EXTENT OF THE PROBLEM
![Page 5: Electronics Stewardship One Bite @ A Timeproceedings.ndia.org/JSEM2006/Wednesday/Lopez.pdf · 2019. 12. 2. · 12 Fact #3 – Electronics represent serious environmental costs and](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081614/5fca3cf19112743a1f7cdc1a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Americans own some 2 billion electronic products ––about 24 products per household!!!
![Page 6: Electronics Stewardship One Bite @ A Timeproceedings.ndia.org/JSEM2006/Wednesday/Lopez.pdf · 2019. 12. 2. · 12 Fact #3 – Electronics represent serious environmental costs and](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081614/5fca3cf19112743a1f7cdc1a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

A typical household could expect to discard approximately 68 electronic items over the next 20 years:
• 20 cell phones• 10 computers• 7 TVs• 7 VCRs or DVD
players• Several answering
machines, printers and CD players.

Every year, millions of newly obsolete computers, televisions,
and other electronic trash or e-waste are discarded to the tune
of 2.2 million tons ––the equivalent of 219 Boeing 737
jetliners!!!

Today, barely one in 10 computers gets recycled or reused. Compare that to old cars: 94% go to scrap
yards where useable parts are reclaimed, and the rest of the material is shredded, compacted and recycled
into appliances, cars and other products.

Fact #2 - The Federal government is a huge consumer electronics
• With 1.8 million employees, the U.S. Federal sector represents asignificant market share for electronics – About 7% of the total market
• FY 2004 IT budget – $60.2 Billion (Hardware & Services)
• FY 2005 IT budget - $60.5 Billion
• Projected FY 2006 IT budget – approx. $65.2 Billion

Fact #3 – Electronics represent serious environmental costs and opportunities
The desktop computer in your office contains about:– 14 pounds of plastic– 4 pounds of lead– 8.5 pounds of aluminum– more than 12 pounds of iron– 1/2 a pound of nickel– Lesser amounts of arsenic,
cadmium, mercury, titanium, zinc, beryllium and gold.
– And valuable metals such as aluminum and copper and precious metals - gold, silver, platinum and palladium.

Fact #4 - The Federal government’s purchase and use of electronics are not sustainable
• Average life cycle of Federally owned computers is 3 years
• Significant quantities are ending up in storage closets, warehouses, or landfills
• Liability Avoidance and Environmental Stewardship are important to the Federal Community

The President's Management Agenda• Announced in the summer of 2001, is an aggressive
strategy for improving the management of the Federal government.
• It focuses on areas of management weakness across the government where improvements and the most progress can be made.

Green for success,
Yellow for mixed results, and
Red for unsatisfactory
![Page 34: Electronics Stewardship One Bite @ A Timeproceedings.ndia.org/JSEM2006/Wednesday/Lopez.pdf · 2019. 12. 2. · 12 Fact #3 – Electronics represent serious environmental costs and](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081614/5fca3cf19112743a1f7cdc1a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

System – How It Will Work
• Manufacturer– Signs MOU with EPEAT Host Organization– Completes annual report on corporate performance and end-of-
life management criteria– Evaluates and self-declares products against criteria– Submits data on web-based system, which calculates award
level
• EPEAT Organization– Random after market spot checks– Periodic review and update criteria– Market to purchasers, vendors

How Will EPEAT Help Me Meet My FEC Goals?
• Gives you:– Set of green criteria for computers – List of products meeting this criteria– Verification that products meet this criteria– Contract Language that other agencies have used to buy
EPEAT registered products– Set of Environmental Performance Measures– Possible federal requirement to buy EPEAT registered
products by putting it into the Federal Acquisition Regulations

What can YOU do?• If you are not the IT purchaser in your office, find out who is and
offer to help them buy EPEAT registered products• Ask me to meet with your IT purchasing group• Share sample EPEAT contract language with your IT group• Go to www.epeat.net to see the list of EPEAT registered products
when you are doing your market research as part of your IT purchasing process. Bring this information into your purchasingprocess.
• Encourage Army to require provision of EPEAT registered products in technology refresh of the Army IT Contract, in the Air Force IT Contract, and all DOD IT contracts
• Find your Agency leads on the Strategic Sourcing Initiative, andmake sure they know about your FEC commitments!
