“…In summary, extensive research has been conducted to evaluate the sustainability performance of manufacturing systems using different approaches. Several other publications, including Schneider et al [41], Finnveden and Moberg [42], Ness et al [43], Moldan et al [44], Singh et al [45], and Ahmad et al [46], have provided insights into the current state of the art of sustainability assessment. It is evident that sustainability assessment systems serve different purposes, ranging from supporting decision-making processes to supporting operational changes and assisting in conceptual design phases [41,44].…”

As sustainability in manufacturing becomes increasingly important, numerous concepts, new technologies, and use cases for improving and assessing sustainability in manufacturing environments are emerging. However, there is a lack of a framework that shows an easy way to identify relevant topics for action in the field of sustainable manufacturing. The purpose of this publication is to provide a structure for the topic of sustainable manufacturing, to contribute to the understanding and classification of ongoing activities, and to identify starting points for future research and development. Within this publication, an extensive literature review is presented. A framework for sustainable manufacturing that acts as a call for action for academia and operations management in the industry alike is derived from this literature review. The framework is intended for Western countries, as, within this framework, aspects such as the elimination of enslaved persons and child labor in production are assumed to be implemented through legal regulations already. Details of the framework are elaborated, and its application is discussed. This publication contributes to a common, clear understanding of sustainability and the different aspects of sustainability in manufacturing.
