In this paper, we consider the application of Green Value Stream Mapping for greening the information technology functional area of organizations. We advocate the use of Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL®) processes to consider value stream maps for both the manufacturing side of the IT department as well as its service delivery arm. In addition, we present steps to be taken by the IT department to eliminate waste in each of seven green waste areas and consider the impact of new technologies for greening the IT department.
