Key Performance Indicators for Sustainable Manufacturing Evaluation in Cement Industry

摘要

The cement industries are facing challenges to implement sustainable manufacturing into their products and processes. Cement manufacturing has remarked as an intensive consumer of natural raw materials, fossil fuels, energy, and a major source of multiple pollutants. Thus, evaluating the sustainable manufacturing in this industry is become a necessity. This paper proposes a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for evaluating the sustainable manufacturing believed to be appropriate to the cement industry based on the triple bottom line of sustainability. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is applied to prioritize the performance indicators by summarizing the opinions of experts. It is hoped that the proposed KPIs enables and assists the cement industry to achieve the higher performance in sustainable manufacturing and so as to increase the competitiveness.
