Environmental performance measurement in the precast concrete sector using a fuzzy logic-based stakeholder-driven indicator selection

• Framework supports ERP integration and real-time sustainability monitoring. • Energy, water and waste indicators and most actionable with available production data. • Indicator framework enables continuous improvement beyond compliance goals. • Data-driven insights support transition to proactive environmental management. • Low attention to biodiversity and soil impact highlights key monitoring gaps. Sustainability assessments are increasingly important in the manufacturing sector, driven by new global sustainability reporting regulations. Although several methods and frameworks support compliance, many companies still face challenges due to limited data availability. This study presents a strategic method for selecting environmental indicators that not only support data collection and meet the requirements of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) but can also be integrated into enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. Focusing on the precast concrete sector, a systematic literature review (SLR) identified 97 sustainability performance indicators (SPIs), from which 39 environmental indicators were selected for further analysis. These were then refined to 26 indicators using expert input and the Fuzzy Delphi Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP). The final indicators fall into five main categories: waste, soil, water, air pollution, and energy. Among these, energy-related indicators were seen as most relevant due to the high energy demands of processes like concrete curing. In contrast, soil and air indicators were often overlooked, revealing gaps in current sustainability assessments. This study highlights the importance of integrating indicators into ERP systems to improve sustainability monitoring and support CSRD compliance. The results offer a practical framework to help decision-makers in the precast sector build data-driven, sector-specific sustainability strategies aligned with Industry 4.0.
