Product Attributes to Impact Algorithm (PAIA) is an easy-to-use web-based platform that delivers the environmental footprint of Information & Communication Technology (ICT) products.
It is the result of a collaboration between MIT and Quantis to deliver on three key components: a streamlined methodology for ICT product footprinting, a suite of simplified online tools, and a consortium of ICT companies.
The goal of PAIA is to help ICT companies perform quantitative and consistent environmental evaluations of their products in significantly less time and at reduced cost.
