However, the environmental consequences associated to those processes have hardly been considered. Hence, the central purpose of this paper is to show that it is possible to obtain relevant environmental gains even not considering the environmental issues as part of the operational cost reduction efforts. This particular point was verified through a single case study where value analysis was used to obtain manufacturing cost reductions in a company belonging to the Brazilian textile sector. Even not considering environmental aspects as part of the value analysis procedures, when the cost reduction actions were implemented it was possible to confirm that they also brought significant improvements to the environmental conditions, which were measured by the firm Eco efficiency levels before and after the cost reduction implementations. 2014 artículo científico 2236-269X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=449544336003 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4495 Independent Journal of Management & Production application/pdf Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia de São Paulo Independent Journal of Management & Production (Brasil) Num.4 Vol.5 |
