International Journal of Product Lifecycle Management (IJPLM), Vol. 9, No. 2, 2016

Abstract: The aerospace industry currently demands environmental sustainability, especially because of the complexity of new product development, the structure of its supply chain and its commitment to product quality. The implementation of sustainable product lifecycle management (PLM) seems to be an adequate strategy for this purpose because this approach is indicated for projects that demand a holistic and sustainable production system. Hence, the aim of this study is to discuss the dynamics of integrating the managerial elements (cleaner production, green design, green supply chain management - GSCM), which are supported by traceability, in a sustainable PLM. This study explores the connections among the approaches that could help to improve the development of sustainability throughout the entire production process in the industry and along the supply chain. This integration would benefit all production stages by facilitating the implementation of PLM and increasing the quality and safety of the aerospace sector.
