“…Urban greening has made a positive contribution to the CER. The reasons for this, on the one hand, green spaces have very effective carbon sequestration effects(Shen et al 2021); on the other hand, as important parts of urban green space, parks, and squares are similar to the medical and educational facilities in this study, accessibility also signi cantly affects travel-related carbon emissions(Ye et al 2015), with a negative correlation between the two. In addition, in this study, according to the survey results, 241 and 76 out of 420 respondents chose walking and cycling (electric bicycles) for their travel options to parks and squares, accounting for 75.5%.…”

Accurate estimation of the impact of urban form on carbon emissions of residents (CER) is a crucial prerequisite for China to adopt effective low-carbon spatial planning strategies and achieve the carbon peak and neutrality goals (hereafter “dual carbon” goals). However, as the most basic governmental unit and the new energy consumer in China, counties have rarely been concerned, and the relationship between their urban form and the CER is still limitedly understood.This paper seeks to investigate how urban form influences the CER by taking the 90 counties in the Yangtze River Delta of China as a case study. First, considering the features of the county's urban form and residents' energy consumption, this study focused on analyzing the urban form of the main center and the overall urban form composed of the main center and surrounding towns. Second, based on the needs of sustainable development at county level and the framework of China's territorial spatial planning, this study defined urban form in two dimensions: geometric-aspect urban form and built environment-aspect urban form. Finally, the relationships between urban form and the CER were modelled using partial least squares structural equation model (PLS-SEM). Results reveal that (1) the geometric-aspect urban form variables (scale, compactness, spatial structures, and shape) exert a direct influence on the CER.Controlling the urban development boundary, increasing compactness of themain center, developing in the direction of multiple centers, and minimizing the complexity and narrowness of theshape of the main center positively impact the CER. (2) For the built environment-aspect urban form variables, improving the accessibility of public service facilities and green space coverage is beneficial for counties to reduce the CER, and currently improving road traffic status and energy infrastructurehas a significant contribution to the growth of the CER.(3) The geometric characteristics of urban form indirectly affect the CER by influencing the built environment characteristics of urban form. Road traffic, greening spaces, public service facilities, and energy infrastructureare influential intermediaries. This study identifies the intricate correlation between the county's urban form and the CER, providing a scientific foundation for the formulation of policies aimed at optimizing urban form and achieving “dual carbon” goals.

“…Motives for deploying sector level maturity assessment include identifying areas of improvements, research results sharing, administration and future strategies facilitation, data management streamlining, knowledge sharing and communication improvements, identifying potential practical applications, inter-company benchmarking and checking the progress (Seidel-Sterzik et al, 2018;Srai et al, 2013). Sector level applications have been developed for, for example, assessing performance of smart city, Life Cycle Management and low-carbon city practices (Wei et al, 2019;Seidel-Sterzik et al, 2018;Shen et al, 2021). A sector level maturity assessment should be simple enough to attract the target audience and produce valid assessment results, but not too simple to overlook vital aspects (Frick et al, 2013).…”

PurposeInsufficient productivity development in the global and Finnish infrastructure sectors indicates that there are challenges in genuinely achieving the goals of resource efficiency and digitalization. This study adapts the approach of capability maturity model integration (CMMI) for examining the capabilities for productivity development that reveal the enablers of improving productivity in the infrastructure sector.Design/methodology/approachCivil engineering in Finland was selected as the study area, and a qualitative research approach was adopted. A novel maturity model was constructed deductively through a three-step analytical process. Previous research literature was adapted to form a framework with maturity levels and key process areas (KPAs). KPA attributes and their maturity criteria were formed through a thematic analysis of interview data from 12 semi-structured group interviews. Finally, validation and refinement of the model were performed with an expert panel.FindingsThis paper provides a novel maturity model for examining and enhancing the infrastructure sector’s maturity in productivity development. The model brings into discussion the current business logics, relevance of lifecycle-thinking, binding targets and outcomes of limited activities in the surrounding infrastructure system.Originality/valueThis paper provides a new approach for pursuing productivity development in the infrastructure sector by constructing a maturity model that adapts the concepts of CMMI and change management. The model and findings benefit all actors in the sector and provide an understanding of the required elements and means to achieve a more sustainable built environment and effective operations.

The study of enterprise management driven by accounting data has not only great strategic significance but also great practical value and distinctive characteristics of The Times. Although the macro evaluation of DCMM is strong, its objective operability is slightly weak. Therefore, based on the maturity model, this article establishes a three-level accounting data management (AAM) capability evaluation index system, divides the maturity level and key process domains, and constructs an AAM capability evaluation model. Through the evaluation of the accounting data management ability of the case enterprise, the evaluation value of the AAM ability is calculated, and the measurement of the AAM ability is completed, which is helpful to improve the data management ability of the enterprise scientifically and efficiently.
