Abstract: Abstract Resources for new technologies are vitally important and limited in their availability. The reasons for the limited availability are political tension, supply concentrations or restricted potential for substitution and recycling. The consideration of information on the availability requires the mapping of this information in business information systems. Science and practice lack holistic and integrated solutions whose use supports the availability and evaluation of sustainable developments. Taking account of open source software, a concept of environmental management information systems is under development, in order to measure sustainable availability. The integration of existing IT systems and data sources provides an improved assessment of risks. The article shows a concept of IT architecture which can be used as open source software in the regulatory framework of environmental management information systems in order to evaluate the availability of resources and course of action.
