Abstract

Goals and objectives of manufacturing enterprises should be determined through organizational performance. Numerous writings have detailed performance evaluations of manufacturing enterprises, but none of them addresses the importance of these performance measurements, especially regarding the economic sustainability. The purpose of this chapter is to provide an introductory overview of performance measurement aspects/issues for sustainable manufacturing enterprises. These issues are represented by product cost, response, productivity, human resource appraisal, resources status, and product quality. A framework of sustainability index regarding these aspects/issues will be introduced, and a numerical example will be also used to illustrate the proposed framework.
