Abstract

Companies are pursuing green manufacturing work to efficiently reduce or eliminate pollutants and hazardous substances as a result of their operations. Green manufacturing is an economically viable alternative that provides a competitive advantage as well as creates sustainable development, allows opportunity for re-investment, supports cost-saving strategies, and has a positive impact on the bottom line. To implement green processes and products, companies exploit Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) practices to achieve their strategic initiatives. This paper investigates why companies practice green manufacturing, what practices are engaged, and how PLM supports environmental-friendly initiatives.
