What the paper says

The challenges of climate change, the energy crisis, and the shortage of skilled labor hinder manufacturing companies (MCs) that are seeking sustainable transformation. To remain competitive, MCs must recognize the interdependencies inherent in holistic sustainabile production systems (SPS) to realize the potential for synergy. Therefore, a comprehensive view of the environmental, social, and economic sustainability dimensions is required. This article presents the interdependencies within an SPS and identifies the synergies for MCs. For this purpose, a three-step methodological procedure was carried out. First, the relevant elements of SPS were identified and described. Next, a Delphi study investigated the existence and strength of interdependencies. Finally, a literature review was conducted to verify the interdependencies identified by the experts. The results show that each sustainability element influences at least one other. Furthermore, the results provide transparency regarding the internal and cross-dimensional impacts of implementing specific sustainability elements. These results support MCs in prioritizing sustainability measures according to their potential benefits.
