Design/methodology/approach: The authors conducted two case studies with Brazilian enterprises certified by ISO 14001, by conducting interviews, document analysis and direct observation. Implications for a research agenda on big data are also presented. Findings: As results, the authors present the identification of the main contributions of IS for the evolution of environmental management in the studied cases. The authors found that advanced stage regarding IS may be considered a factor that implies a more effective environmental management. Originality/value: The main contribution of this research consists of the presentation of a framework that identifies the support of IS for corporate environmental practices.
