Environmental Design is becoming an increasingly significant agenda
for many manufacturing companies and yet there is no standard to
their approaches, strategies or their levels of execution. Applying
Design for Environment (DfE) methodologies to develop a more
sustainable supply chain has formed procedures and techniques which
allow designers to integrate these methods with environmental
supply chain management. Design for Environment as a Tool for the
Development of a Sustainable Supply Chain aims to define relevant
target specifications for a product throughout its life cycle; from
conception and design to the end of its operating life. Be
considering this new approach to the supply chain, environmental
responsiveness can work in tandem with sounds business management.
The usual focus on suppliers, manufacturers and customers is
expanded in Design for Environment as a Tool for the Development of
a Sustainable Supply Chain to include stakeholders such as
government bodies and recycling companies. The influence of these
additional groups is analyzed alongside concepts such as: Product
life cycle development aimed at environmental impact minimization;
Supplier selection and management based on environmental criteria;
and Marketing and communication choices which increase the value of
environmentally sensitive products. By including several case
studies alongside theoretical topics, Design for Environment as a
Tool for the Development of a Sustainable Supply Chains acts as a
foundation for professionals across the supply chain, from
industrial designers to marketing and sales departments, who are
involved in environmental issues.
