HOW CAN INFORMATION and COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY SUPPORT the LINK between CIRCULAR ECONOMY and PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT?- A REVIEW 2020 (English)In: Proceedings of the Design Society: DESIGN Conference, Cambridges Institutes Press, 2020, Vol. 1, p. 2187-2196Conference paper, Published paper (Refereed)

Abstract [en]

Linear production is related to resource scarcity and negative environmental impacts. Circular Economy (CE) emerged for society transition towards sustainability, based on regenerative systems and multiple life cycle products. Product Life cycle Management (PLM) supports the whole life cycle with the aid of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). A literature review analyzed the role of ICT enabling CE based on PLM, identifying challenges and opportunities, active and passive PLM, system perspective, stakeholder's role, and sustainability. Concluding that ICT enables the CE transition. © The Author(s), 2020. Published by Cambridge University Press.
