Tanulmányukban a szerzők a vállalatok magas szintű információs és kommunikációs technológiákban (ICT) való jártassága és környezeti teljesítménye közötti kapcsolatot vizsgálják. Feltételezéseik szerint azok a vállalatok, amelyek fejlett ICT-t alkalmaznak, környezeti szempontból is jobban teljesítenek. Az ICT fejlettséget Pham modellje segítségével mérik, míg a környezeti teljesítmény megítéléséhez Schultze és Trommer megközelítését alkalmazzák. A modelleket és a fent felvázolt összefüggést statisztikai módszerekkel tesztelték, amelyhez a Versenyképességkutatás adatbázisát használták fel. Az eredményeket tekintve elmondható, hogy pozitív kapcsolat van a vállalatok ICT-fejlettsége és környezeti teljesítménye között több szempontból is. Mivel a fejlett ICT jobb adatgyűjtést és elemzést tesz lehetővé, a környezeti teljesítmény mérése és a beavatkozás is hatékonyabb lehet. A felelős környezeti gondolkodás nem csak a nagyvállalatok privilégiuma, a középvállalatok is élénken foglalkoznak a témával. A magántulajdonban lévő vállalatok környezeti teljesítménye jellemzően jobb, mint az állami tulajdonban lévőké.
