A model for introducing strategies in sustainable development of small-scale enterprises in Serbia
Abstract
This paper presents the algorithm for introducing the strategies ensuring the sustainable development of enterprises, but also provides improvement of small-scale manufacturing process. Three strategies are given in the algorithm: Remanufacturing, modification and 4R. Credibility of the algorithm is reflected in: defining the basic input and output elements, defining the important environmental factors, importance of resources and in defining a sustainable production process. The combination of the aforementioned strategies enables local enterprises to perceive easily the importance of achievements in developed countries. Reuse of products is implemented through: verification, disassembling, replacement of parts, installation of modified parts and components, cleaning, re-assembling and testing. The algorithm gives an example of how to save materials and energy appearing as huge losses in manufacturing process.
