Abstract:
In the course of the last four decades, sustainability has also become a central concept in business information systems engineering, thanks to a variety of national and international initiatives. It is operationalised on the basis of the three-pillar-model (social, ecological and economic issues) and aims to secure the basis of life for current and future generations. As a result of stricter legal requirements, growing competitive pressure and increasingly sustainability-driven decisions by external stakeholders, companies around the world are facing the central challenge of reconciling profit generation and sustainability criteria. Herefore, data-based corporate sustainability management provides a key foundation. The maturity model presented in this article synthesises and expands the current state of research based on a literature review. It analyses the organisational use of frameworks, key performance indicators and management tools as well as the maturity of a company’s sustainability data management and the IT architecture used for its implementation. The maturity as well as the procedure model are intended to also provide medium-sized companies with a set of instruments for a pragmatic assessment of the status quo and the development potential of their own sustainability management.
