Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)
Precise and usable Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment (LCSA) becomes more and more important with stricter regulations and politics aiming for sustainable development as well as the market's growing demand for eco-friendly products. Due to many different use-cases and requirements on the assessment quality, enterprises typically create their own methodologies rather than customizing and further developing existing solutions. This leads to many specific methods and tools for sustainability assessment and inflexible solutions. Furthermore, the different product life cycle phases, in which Life Cycle Assessments are performed, lead to varying levels of data availability and consistency. This needs to be considered in an adaptable methodology. Motivated by the lack of a general and universally applicable LCSA method, this paper proposes the combination of three methods, which include the social, ecological, and economic aspects of sustainability and build on one another. In doing so, it accounts for different levels of data availability and assessment quality, which is not yet inherent to existing solutions. It aims to enable an early sustainability assessment which is also relevant and expandable in the later stages of product development. The goal is to take a step towards comparable results of the sustainability assessment for similar products and a high usability. In addition to the method set, an assistance system is developed which supports product designers during a preliminary assessment without the need for expert knowledge. In order to validate the developed solution it is used to assess case studies of a bicycle frame production. In this example, three different design options are compared to choose the eco-friendliest product during product development.
