| Summary: | The purposes of this research are twofold. Firstly, the goal is to determine Iranian businesses Green IT Readiness-levels. It means companies’ maturity in integrating environmental viewpoint to IT related activities throughout its lifecycle. The G-Readiness framework is also used to test the role of eco-sustainability in the adoption of e-invoicing. The second part of the research is about IT’s enabling role in reducing carbon footprint of invoicing as invoices are turned from paper into electronic format.

The framework with four measures (Attitudes, Paperless Office, Management and Virtualization) was studied through a survey and tested using Partial Least Squares analysis (PLS).
