Subject Area

Term
from 2012 to 2016
Project identifier
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 199828953
The core research is divided into three major tasks: development and evaluation of environmental, economic and social indicators to assess the sustainability performance of value creation networks in manufacturing. The indicators will be integrated into a database, designed according to the DPSIR framework. This allows a classification and evaluation of the indicators with regard to the driving force (D), the pressure (P) on the state of the environment (S), the impact (I) and the re-sponse (R) categories. To apply a reasonable number of indicators they are selected through the ABC indicator selection method, using different selection criteria like robustness or practicality.
