A model for aligning the features of the production process with the idea of sustainable development

aligning the characteristics of the production process with the idea
of eco-development by identifying key factors related to
technological capabilities and product competitiveness affecting the
achievement of the goal and success of the enterprise. The study
proposes a model approach to a multifaceted analysis of the key
factors determining the construction of effective development
strategies of industrial enterprises as a way to achieve the strategic
goals of the enterprise in the long term. The study used a 3x3
linkage matrix divided into zones within which the results of
surveys (carried out using a modified BOST questionnaire) were
distributed, and statistical analyses were carried out to determine the
level of importance of the considered factors from the area of
technological capabilities and product competitiveness referring
directly to the idea of sustainable development. The identified key
factors referring to eco-development (optimization of the use of
productive resources, design of a closed production cycle, in-house
research and development) make up the development of new
innovative sustainable technologies that will contribute to material
savings and efficient use of energy, and thus have a positive impact
on the environment. Verification of the developed model in a
manufacturing company confirmed its usefulness in conducting data
analysis for decision support.
