“…In Jankalová, Jankal [16], according to R. B. Pojasek, it is stated that sustainability is only one of several terms now being used to denote the same concept; other terms include corporate social responsibility (CSR), social responsibility, corporate citizenship, corporate responsibility, environmental sustainability, sustainable development, and each of these terms in turn can be defined in scores of different ways. Opinions on the identification of individual items of sustainability are differing due to various views of this issue, which is demonstrated by statements by many authors (see also [22]).…”

“…In Jankalová, Jankal [16], it is stated that although there are various international efforts on sustainability assessment (sustainability indices, sustainable development indicators, Business Excellence models) that can evaluate the sustainable development of companies, only few of them have an integral approach taking into account environmental, economic, and social aspects. In most cases, the focus is on one of the three aspects, although, it could be argued that they could serve supplementary to each other.…”

Sustainability assessments should be based on financial and non-financial indicators. To describe the financial situation of companies and to calculate the actual economic profit of a company, the Economic Value Added methodology appears as a suitable solution. The aim of the paper is to apply the Economic Value Added methodology to real-life corporate data and present the company’s value through a case study. This study is based on information that was gathered through an extensive literature review (research publications and research studies (documents) about sustainability, corporate social responsibility, Sustainable Value concept, and Economic Value Added (EVA) methodology; and the company’s financial statements with notes of the selected company) using Internet and research databases and the author’s own experience. Methods of analysis, comparison, selection, abstraction, induction, deduction, determination, and statistics were used. In addition to the positives, this evaluation method also has negatives, including limitations (problems) in measuring a company’s value.

“…The e-commerce revolution and the advancement of technology is changing the way business is conducted [18]. The recent census bureau estimates released by the U.S. show online sales have doubled over the last two quarters, from 15.8% to 30.2% and $142.2 million in 2017, compared to the previous year, and this is expected to triple in the next year [19].…”

Achieving Sustainable E-Commerce in Environmental, Social and Economic Dimensions by Taking Possible Trade-Offs

et al. 2018

The Internet revolution has led to the advancement of online business all over the world. The environmental, social, and economic aspects are significant to the e-commerce sector, on both the retailer and consumer sides. It cannot be over-emphasized how important the sustainability of e-commerce in all three dimensions is. E-commerce will allow consumers to shop online easily, at any hour of the day, using secure payment systems; furthermore, trust in retailers’ websites is of paramount importance to consumers. This calls our attention to the gap in previous studies, and consequently, the purpose of this study is to fill the gap, to ensure sustainable e-commerce in three dimensions; environmental, social, and economic. The question and aim under investigation are: How to integrate three dimensions into e-commerce to ensure that sustainability is achieved now and for future generations, while thriving as an industry? Collaboration is required, and all stakeholders in the virtual market must take appropriate responsibility. The methodology adopted is a review of previous studies done on each individual dimension of sustainability, since no joint studies have been carried out and integrated into the same literature framework. Furthermore, a case study involving companies in Kenya and Jordan is used in order to collect empirical data. The findings of the study show that: First, integration is essential for the sustainability of e-commerce in its three dimensions; second, trade-offs must be taken in the various dimensions in order for companies to realize sustainable e-commerce. This will go in hand with the realization of the maximum benefits of integrating the three dimensions in e-commerce to make it more sustainable. In conclusion, by applying these aspects of sustainability in e-commerce, it is clear that everyone wins. This is achieved by improving and safeguarding the quality of life by protecting the environment, preserving natural resources, and maintaining and sustaining the economy. The implications of the study are that, in order to make e-commerce more sustainable, to make decisions and take action, social/environmental/economic aspects must be considered as a fundamental element, and must be treated as a group and not separately as in previous studies. In this way, we can realize greater benefits, not only in online business sustainability, but also in policy-making and environmental protection, while companies will create economic value as well as avoiding labor unrest.

“…Bigerna et al [11] defined several variable conditions using the fuzzy, qualitative contrast analysis of data. The integration of economic, ecological and social factors at the same time in one business success assessment model is very rare [12,13]. Bajec and Tuljak-Suban [14] have proposed a unified Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Data Envelopment Analysis model (DEA) based on the assumption of unwanted performance criteria assessed on the scale of logistics service providers.…”

Hybrid Group MCDM Model to Select the Most Effective Alternative of the Second Runway of the Airport

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Sustainable and efficient development is one of the most critical challenges facing modern society if it wants to save the world for future generations. Airports are an integral part of human activity. They need to be adapted to meet current and future sustainable needs and provide useful services to the public, taking into account prospects and requirements. Many performance criteria need to be assessed to address issues that often conflict with each other and have different units of measurement. The importance of the criteria to evaluate the effectiveness of alternatives varies. Besides, the implementation of such decisions has different—not precisely described in advance—effects on the interests of different groups in society. Some criteria are defined using different scales. Stakeholders could only evaluate the implemented project alternatives for efficiency throughout the project life cycle. It is essential to find alternative assessment models and adapt them to the challenges. The use of hybrid group multi-criteria decision-making models is one of the most appropriate ways to model such problems. This article presents a real application of the original model to choose the best second runway alternative of the airport.
