The Lean & Green Management Award has been awarded annually since 2012. It is an opportunity for “Companies with 150 or more employees to obtain a sustainability and lean management rating and to learn from the best.” The Technical University of Munich and the Technical University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt provide scientific analyses for the award. An independent jury of representatives from science/technology, business, and media examines candidates in three-hour assessments, supported by management consultancy T&O (www.tundo.de). The analysis also draws on answers provided by the participating enterprises to questions about their sustainability and lean management strategies. “We’re absolutely delighted to have won the special award for Excellent Strategy Implementation this year. The prize confirms that we’re on the right track with our sustainable efficiency strategy. It boosts our motivation to achieve even more improvements along the entire value chain,” said Tharcisse Carl during the awards ceremony on October 19, which this year took place at DMG MORI in Pfronten. The goal of SÜDPACK’s sustainable efficiency policy is the continuous optimization of both ecological and business efficiency. The strategy creates a framework for closed-loop systems, climate protection, and social responsibility.
