关注环境问题已成为制造业中许多公司的议事日程。本文的目的是分析的决策标准时，环境问题引入制造战略的影响。此外，其目的是提出一个框架，说明如何关注环境问题影响的制造战略制定过程。设计/方法/方式-该文件是基于对环保意识的制造和文献的制造战略的文献回顾。这两个研究领域在分析中被合并。结果-分析表明，对环境问题的关注可能会导致一些潜在的影响的决策标准。这些影响可能会反过来影响制造战略的制定过程。一个框架，说明了驱动程序之间的相互关系，对环境的关注，竞争的优先事项，影响的决策标准，以及它如何可能会影响制造战略的制定过程。研究限制/影响-包括环境问题可能会使制造策略的制定过程复杂化。这意味着需要进一步研究公司在战略制定过程中面临的挑战。实际意义-本文提出的决策标准和框架的影响，可以支持企业准备列入环境问题的制造战略制定过程中。纸张的原始/价值制造战略传统上不包括对环境问题的关注。本文采用了一种新的方法，其中环境问题的研究成果与制造战略的文献相结合。
Purpose of the paper Concern for environmental issues has entered the agenda in many companies within the manufacturing industry. The purpose of this paper is to analyse implications for the decision criteria when environmental issues are introduced into manufacturing strategy. Furthermore, the purpose is to present a framework illustrating how concern for environmental issues affect the manufacturing strategy formulation process. Design/methodology/approach The paper is based on a review of literature on environmentally conscious manufacturing and literature on manufacturing strategy. These two fields of research are merged in the analysis. Findings The analysis shows that concern for environmental issues may lead to a number of potential implications for the decision criteria. These implications may, in turn, affect the manufacturing strategy formulation process. A framework is presented that illustrates the interrelationships between the drivers for environmental concern, effects for the competitive priorities, implications for the decision criteria and how it may affect the manufacturing strategy formulation process. Research limitations/implications Inclusion of environmental issues potentially complicates the manufacturing strategy formulation process. This implies a need for further studies on the challenges companies face in the strategy formulation process. Practical implication The implications for the decision criteria and the framework presented in this paper may support companies to prepare for inclusion of environmental concern in the manufacturing strategy formulation process. Original/value of paper Manufacturing strategy has not traditionally included concern for environmental issues. This paper adopts a novel approach in which research findings on environmental concern are integrated with literature on manufacturing strategy.
