Headline: Towards a shared understanding of sustainability information systems. A linked open data repository to integrate manufacturing sustainability indicator sets

In this contribution the vision, contents, process and structure for a collaborative research repository of indicator-based sustainability assessment tools is outlined. As the result of a wide literature review on the concepts of sustainable manufacturing and applicable sustainable assessment tools, four selection criteria for the repositories contents are presented and several indicator-sets are proposed for further in-depth analysis. The research also exposed organizational levels of traditional manufacturing organizations as a possible terminology to integrate a variety of sustainability assessment tools.
