If anything, it is now imperative that we work towards achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, the global challenges are significant. Many of the societal challenges represent complex problems that require multifaceted solutions drawing on multidisciplinary approaches.Engineering management involves the management of people and projects related to technological or engineering systems-this includes project management, engineering economy and technology management, as well as the management and leadership of teams. Systems engineering involves the design, integration and management of complex systems over the full life cycle-this includes requirements capture and integrated system design, as well as modelling and simulation. In addition to the theoretical underpinnings of both disciplines, they also provide a range of tools and techniques that can be used to address technological and organisational complexity. The disciplines of engineering management and systems engineering are therefore ideally suited to help tackle both the challenges and the opportunities associated with realising a sustainable future for all.This book provides new insights on how engineering management and systems engineering can be utilised as part of the journey towards sustainability. The book includes a discussion of a broad range of different approaches to investigate sustainability through utilising quantitative, qualitative and conceptual methodologies. The book will be of interest to researchers and students focused on the field of sustainability as well as practitioners concerned with devising strategies for sustainable development.Technology: general issuesbicsscbusiness modelsbusiness-societycarbon neutralcircular economycomplexity theoryconceptualCOVID-19data centre industrydesign methodselectric vehicleengineering managementfood and beveragefuzzy analytic hierarchy processinfrastructure projectmanagementmanufacturingmulti-criteria decision makingn/anet-zeroproject selectionproject successrenewable energysmart chargingsustainabilitysustainable developmentSustainable Development Goals (SDGs)sustainable projectsvehicle-to-gridwhole systems thinkingTechnology: general issuesPhilbin Simon Pedt1295537Philbin Simon PothBOOK9910557407703321Driving Sustainability through Engineering Management and Systems Engineering3023592UNINA
