makes the air cleaner the more one drives it,’ ‘a safe vehicle that does not harm people in any way,’ ‘a vehicle that serves as a base for sending and receiving information,’ ‘and a vehicle that actually improves one’s health.’”

A New Field: Industrial Ecology• The means by which humanity can deliberately approach and maintain
sustainability, given continued economic, cultural, and technological evolution.
• An industrial system needs to be viewed not in isolation from its surrounding systems, but in concert with them.
• This is a systems view. One seeks to optimize the total materials cycle from virgin material, to finished material, to component, to product, to obsolete product, and to ultimate disposal. Factors to be optimized include resources, energy, and capital.
• Principles: (1) Close material loops, (2) Don’t discard waste that has energy content, (3) Eliminate materials (e.g., heavy metals) that upset system, and (4) Deliver function with fewer materials.*

CSCMP 032806 19
New Performance Measurement Concept:
The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)• An objective process to evaluate the environmental burdens
associated with a product, process, or activity by identifying and quantifying energy, material usage, and environmental releases, to assess the impact of those uses and releases on the environment, and to evaluate and implement opportunities to effect environmental improvements.
• The assessment includes the entire life cycle of the product, process or activity, encompassing extracting and processing raw materials; manufacturing, transportation, and distribution; use/reuse/maintenance; recycling; and final disposal.

History of Lean
• Henry Ford was one of the first CEO that target the “elimination of waste” and use of flow. He used the concepts and principles in his automotive, mining, hospital and farming industries that he controlled.
• Toyota, under the leadership of Taiichi Ohno used these same Lean ideas of “eliminating waste”, flow, pull systems, etc. recorded by Henry Ford
• Toyota has become the champion of Lean.
• Toyota became the largest automotive company in the world in 2006

Waste Definition
Waste is…
Any action, process or product that adds cost, without adding value as perceived by our customer.

Typical Symptoms of Waste• Excessive Cycle, Lead or Flow Time• Excessive costs• Poor quality• Inflexible production systems• Late deliveries• Excessive inventories• Dependency on work-around production• Reactive fire-fighting• Daily management by exception

The Vancouver, WA facility (Matsushita Kotobuki Electronics Industries of America, Inc. (MKA)) receives television components from an overseas supplier in durable plastic trays. The trays also eliminate the need for wooden pallets. Empty trays are nested and shipped back to the supplier in intermodal containers. Annual savings exceed $65,000.

Giving, Stewardship and Sustainability
• More than $2.4 million given in 2005 for conservation, recreation and stewardship causes
• In 2004, engaged 124,000 people in donating a more than 324,000 hours of volunteer service to the outdoors
• Presently finalizing a company strategy to build on long standing commitments to sustainability. For example: • Continuing as a leader in Green Building design and development• Implementing purchasing standards requiring paper products to come from
responsibly managed forests• Seeking to reduce waste and expand recycling ability through a new waste
management contract• Working with vendors to assure responsible disposal and recycling of
electronic waste – specifically computer monitors

Purchasing Power: Harnessing Institutional Procurement for People and the Planet Lisa Mastny, World Watch Paper 166, July 2003.
• Ultimately, “green” purchasing shouldn’t simply be about buying environmentally preferable products. It should also be about consuming less in general. Institutions should find ways to meet their needs without buying new products – for instance, by eliminating unnecessary purchases and extending the lives of products currently in use.
