Sustainable Value Chains and Life Cycle Management Capability

The UNEP/SETAC Life-Cycle Initiative focuses on building capacity for sustainable value chains through the Life Cycle Management Capability Maturity Model (LCM-CMM). It emphasizes implementing science-based life cycle approaches globally by transitioning from events to management systems, conducting action learning workshops, managing the white spaces, and following cycles of learning. The initiative also stresses the importance of metrics and management systems in achieving superior financial performance, social responsibility, customer satisfaction, and efficient internal processes. Additionally, it outlines essential management practices for equipment maintenance and operations inspections in promoting sustainability.
