Abstract

This paper presents the results of a study conducted in manufacturing firms operating in the electrical and electronic sectors in Quebec. It investigates the extent to which environmental concerns are integrated into corporate strategy and the entire product development stages. Special attention is paid to the underlying decision process and the benefits derived from being green. Un étude conduite auprès des entreprises québécoises oeuvrant dans les secteur électrique et électronique permet d'évaluer le niveau d'intégration des préoccupations environnementales dans la stratégie corporative et dans les différentes phases du cycle de développement des produits. Les résultats de l'étude analysent les processus décisionnels sous-jacents ainsi que les bénéfices encourus par les entreprises qui ont privilégié une stratégie environnementale plus intense.
