Design of Information System for Advanced Technologies Production Sustainability

Environmental protection is an integral part of the strategy of responsible companies and organizations. Through industrial production, the planet's resources are degraded and destroyed for a long time. The only way to preserve nature is to slow down and finally stop the unsustainable method of production. The article deals with the application of information system developed at the Technical University of Kosice to the analysis of basic legal and professional approaches to sustainable production methods evaluation and with application to advanced technologies process planning. A simple methodology implemented in the Information system was created in cooperation with a multidisciplinary international team. The methodology can be used for various sizes of manufacturing companies. This methodology is based on the ISO 14040 standard and offers the possibility of an effective comparison of the economic and environmental impacts of the proposed production processes. The contribution presents an evaluation of the information system in production process design for a selected part and presents the economic and environmental impact of the five selected processes.
