companyIt is important to understand how your company thinks about sustainability before starting a 'green' or sustainable design programme. If there is no structure within the company it may make more sense to undertake this as your first step.
There is less complexity in reviewing your company and operation as it is directly under your control. This information is important to communicate to a designer, as they should understand the context of sustainability within your enterprise.
ProductOnly by looking at the life cycle of your product or service can you truly understand and evaluate its environmental impact.
Understanding the life cycle can yield important information. It can provide insight into both problems and opportunities which can improve design briefing and product development.
ScopeImproving the environmental factors related to a product require change.
Each new idea will have a different profile from eco-efficiency to eco-effectiveness.
The scope may range from just benchmarking the product to a product system level of innovation that requires greater change.
customerConsumers have a profound impact on your product. From purchasing choices to how they use the product over its lifespan (and what they do at the end of life).
Sustainability is becoming a mandatory factor in some consumer markets, whilst in others it is just a minor consideration. Understanding the market trends and consumer behavior can improve the environmental effectiveness of the product and improve product design.
