Abstract

Purpose

This paper presents a new and well-structured framework that aims to assess the current environmental impact from a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions perspective. This tool includes a new set of Lean Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), which translates the well-known logic of Overall Equipment Effectiveness in the field of GHG emissions, that can progressively detect industrial losses that cause GHG emissions and support decision-making for implementing improvements.

Design/methodology/approach

The new metrics are presented with reference to two different perspectives: (1) to highlight the deviation of the current value of emissions from the target; (2) to adopt a diagnostic orientation not only to provide an assessment of current performance but also to search for the main causes of inefficiencies and to direct improvement implementations.

Findings

The proposed framework was applied to a major company operating in the plywood production sector. It identified emission-related losses at each stage of the production process, providing an overall performance evaluation of 53.1%. The industrial application shows how the indicators work in practice, and the framework as a whole, to assess GHG emissions related to industrial losses and to proper address improvement actions.

Originality/value

This paper scrutinizes a new set of Lean KPIs to assess the industrial losses causing GHG emissions and identifies some significant drawbacks. Then it proposes a new structure of losses and KPIs that not only quantify efficiency but also allow to identify viable countermeasures.

评估与工业损失有关的温室气体排放的一套新的精益指标
本文提出了一个结构合理的新框架,旨在从温室气体(GHG)排放的角度评估当前的环境影响。该工具包括一套新的精益关键绩效指标(KPIs),它将众所周知的设备总体效率逻辑转化为温室气体排放领域的逻辑,可逐步检测导致温室气体排放的工业损失,并为实施改进提供决策支持。设计/方法/途径从两个不同的角度介绍了新的衡量标准:(1)突出当前排放值与目标值的偏差;(2)采用诊断导向,不仅提供当前绩效评估,还寻找效率低下的主要原因,并指导改进措施的实施。它确定了生产过程中每个阶段与排放相关的损失,提供了 53.1% 的总体绩效评估。工业应用表明了这些指标在实践中是如何发挥作用的,以及整个框架是如何评估与工业损失相关的温室气体排放并采取适当的改进措施的。然后,它提出了一种新的损失和关键绩效指标结构,不仅可以量化效率,还可以确定可行的对策。

期刊介绍: ■Organisational design and methods ■Performance management ■Performance measurement tools and techniques ■Process analysis, engineering and re-engineering ■Quality and business excellence management Articles can address these topics theoretically or empirically through either a descriptive or critical approach. The co-Editors support articles that significantly bring new knowledge to the area both for academics and practitioners. The material for publication in IJPPM should be written in a manner which makes it accessible to its entire wide-ranging readership. Submissions of highly technical or mathematically-oriented papers are discouraged.
