This study focuses on how sustainability can be integrated into company portfolio development through interviews with experts and representatives from manufacturing companies. It proposes a definition of sustainable product portfolio concept and suggests evaluation criteria from an industry perspective. Future research will aim to develop a method to guide manufacturing companies in integrating and implementing sustainability in product portfolios.
Many companies decide which services, products, and technologies to include in their product portfolio using evaluation criteria, which often consider cost, quality, risk, revenue, time, and market position. Incorporating sustainability in the portfolio evaluation criteria could ensure the development of sustainable solutions from the early stages of the product development process, where there is more room for innovation. The aim of this paper is to understand how sustainability can be integrated in the company portfolio development. Semi-structured interviews were performed with experts in the field and representatives from multinational manufacturing companies with operations in Sweden. Main findings from this study include a proposed definition of a sustainability product portfolio concept and suggested portfolio evaluation criteria from an industry perspective. Future research will develop a method to guide manufacturing companies in sustainability integration and implementation in product portfolios.
