Popis: Sustainability has attracted the attention of many researchers and organizations. There is a Europe-wide interest in measuring sustainability performance. A standardized framework to determine sustainability performance of dispersed production clusters, however, has yet to be found. Existing initiatives either focus on partial aspects of sustainability or do not support sustainability considerations for complex value networks but rather focus on the organizational level. This paper discusses some problems related to existing initiatives and introduces SustainValue, a project that responds to the known shortcomings and that aims at the creation of a governing framework for sustainability performance.
