Abstract
This paper reports the results and outlines the progress
of an on-going research project that aims to support
Finnish manufacturing companies in sustainability
measurement and reporting. The target companies' current
state and future needs as well as challenges and
opportunities of implementing sustainable indicators and
reporting practices are described. Then, an early design
concept of a new indicator framework is proposed. The
framework suggests dividing and categorizing
sustainability indicators based on two domains: level of
organization and temporal focus. This is intended to
assist companies in selecting relevant and useful
sustainability indicators.
