Sustainable development = development that meets the needs of the present without compromising
the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
Traditional TBL: Simplistic/Win-win;
Emerging TBL: Sustainability as complex network science → social and economy inside environment
Key instrumental logic: economic
performance is the goal, not
sustainability. Key ecologically
dominant logic: sustainability is
central constraint.
→ Creating sustainability is not the
same as reducing unsustainability!
The Ecologically Dominant logic can lead to the development of sustainable supply chains; the
instrumental logic cannot.

Supplier integration = product design with suppliers → Components:
• Task complexity (difficulties designing a component)
• Task interdependence (extent to accomplishing a task depends on another)
• Component interdependence (extent to design of component depends on others)
• Component integration (easy when interdependence is low),
• Inter-organizational interdependence
• Inter-organizational integration
Incremental innovation = gradually improving existing
products or processes.
Architectural innovation = rearrangement of ways
components relate to each other within system design.
Modular innovation = core concepts in a component are
overturned, while the product architecture is unchanged.
Radical innovation = new architecture and a new
fundamental technological approach.
Product design with supplier integration governance modes:
• White box integration = Discussions held with suppliers about specifications/requirements
but the buying company makes all design and specifications decisions.
• Grey box integration = Buyer and supplier enter informal joint development effort, sharing
and joint decision-making regarding design specification.
• Black box integration = Supplier is informed of customer requirements and then is given
almost complete responsibility for the purchased item.
Design review is based on 3 dimensions of sustainability: Economy (Original ‘design for’, meant for
more efficient product creation and reducing time, cost, and errors); Ecology (Managers/
engineers/researchers recognized environmental impacts could be lessened through improved
product design → new DFX ideas to help minimize a product's environmental footprint); Equity
(products should be designed not discriminate among customers based on age/size/abilities/needs).
