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. 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 610 $asustainability 610 $aproject success 610 $abusiness-society 610 $abusiness models 610 $aSustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 610 $asustainable development 610 $ainfrastructure project 610 $afuzzy analytic hierarchy process 610 $aproject selection 610 $asustainable projects 610 $amulti-criteria decision making 610 $aCOVID-19 610 $afood and beverage 610 $amanufacturing 610 $acomplexity theory 610 $aengineering management 610 $amanagement 610 $aconceptual 610 $acarbon neutral 610 $aelectric vehicle 610 $avehicle-to-grid 610 $arenewable energy 610 $asmart charging 610 $anet-zero 610 $acircular economy 610 $adesign methods 610 $awhole systems thinking 610 $adata centre industry 615 7$aTechnology: general issues 700 $aPhilbin$b Simon P$4edt$01295537 702 $aPhilbin$b Simon P$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557407703321 996 $aDriving Sustainability through Engineering Management and Systems Engineering$93023592 997 $aUNINA
