Abstract
This paper proposes an initial process model for designing and implementing a sustainability performance measurement and management system for manufacturing companies. The process model follows the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve, Control) approach that is widely used in performance improvement projects. The phases of the process cover selecting and implementing relevant sustainability key performance indicators (KPIs) and linking measurement to sustainability performance improvement, management and control. This paper presents the initial process model and the associated tools and guidelines that assist companies in developing and implementing a sustainability performance measurement, improvement and management system. The use of the process model is demonstrated by a virtual case study, which provides an example of sustainability performance measurement and management system for a shop floor level.
