“…Material, energy, human resources, and capital should be used in such a way that emissions and waste are avoided. By improving not only the efficiency of the production output but also the consumption of resources, the ultra-efficiency enables a simultaneous increase in eco-efficiency while realizing eco-effectiveness [24][25][26]. Influenced by the emerging potentials of digital and biological transformation [27,28], new methods and opportunities are enabling the future development of the ultra-efficiency factory.…”

Principles of Management Systems for Positive Impact Factories

The sustainable design of production systems is essential for the industry’s future viability. In this context, the concept of positive impact factories has recently evolved, striving for a completely loss-free factory benefiting positively its surroundings. To establish a holistic view of this approach in everyday corporate life, it is necessary to develop a management policy with defined process flows in the sense of a dedicated management system. This paper thus reviews the scientific literature on (sustainable) management systems and develops a tailored management system for the example of the ultra-efficiency factory. In doing so, we specifically combine and complement established management systems such as environmental, energy and quality management, as well as compliance, maintenance, and lean management. In order to define an applicable framework, the basic considerations presented here were developed in cooperation with and reviewed by a large German automotive supplier. Thereupon, the results are discussed with regard to the future implementation of the system, and starting points for future research are derived.

“…This enables the increased use of the system in practice, which is essential for the overall objective of ultra-efficiency. After all, it is the symbiotic exchange with the environment and the sharing of resources among organizations that create sustainable ways of conducting business and enables successful incorporation into urban spaces [24].…”

A sustainable design of production systems, both within and beyond company boundaries, is essential for the future viability of the process industry. In this context, the concept of ultra‐efficiency has recently been developed, aiming at achieving holistic improvements in the fields of action energy and material efficiency, emission reduction, organization, human and staff, with the goal of establishing a positive impact factory. In this paper, the concept developed mainly for the discrete manufacturing industry is transferred to the process industry. It is put into the scientific sub context and elementary approaches, methods and strategies for factory planning and design of production processes in the process industry are summarized.
