One of my two major projects is a long-term reporting system on a sustainability initiative to help managers figure out whether their unit is compliant (definitely not for control, of course, nooo... though they are expected to talk to their respective subordinates if their results deviate too much, which probably filters up the chain when a given higher level breaks down their subordinate units' figures).
Probably a PR push (I swear, if I ever see a figure calculated by my model in the newspaper, my impostor syndrome is gonna thoroughly shit my pants for me), maybe a move to get ahead of competitors in the face of legal stuff I'm not in the loop about, but doing the right thing for selfish reasons is still the right thing.
The other project... Well, I'm trying to push for measures that prevent user-level evaluations, but it's a kind of corporate limbo right now. I'm doing my best, but that's not a whole lot in this case.
