Abstract: In this study, a model to develop a Green Information Technology (IT) and Green Business Process Management (BPM) Strategic Plan, which allows reducing the environmental impact and contributing to the environmental sustainability of a Higher Education Institution was conducted, based on the IT Strategic Plan by Gartner, COBIT 5 (Control Objectives for Information and related Technology) and the government actions of ISO/IEC 38500 standard and ISO 14031 standard. Four Green phases were established: Evaluation of the Current Situation, Direction of the Business Model, Strategic Planning for acquisition, Implementation and support, and Performance Monitoring In addition, a quantitative and qualitative guide was designed to determine the level of sustainability and interoperability obtained. For Sustainability: economic indicator with 35% and people indicator with 25% was defined, for the Interoperability, engineering and processes indicators with 15% and infrastructure indicator with 10%. As a consequence of the fact that in Ecuador there is no legal framework that regulates the actions of Green IT, the Governance of Higher Education Institutions and research on Green BPM are limited. There has not been structured a productive and environmentally responsible Institutional Strategic Plan and that supports as a basis for the planning and management of IT operations and resources. Thus, the design of the model allows the alignment of indicators that support economic savings, a change in the social/environmental paradigm, and the responsibility of the technological architecture. Also, with the flexibility of the model, new environmental performance indicators (Green KPI) can be included as needed.
