Abstract

Emerging literature on enterprise sustainability suggests that all types of enterprise may adopt “Triple Bottom Line” approach to facilitate enterprise to sustainability. However, there is still a relatively limited understanding of how such sustainability might be implemented and measured in enterprise practice including manufacturing industry as well as especially in service industry. This paper presents preliminary findings from a case study of Thailand enterprises that play key role to supply product and service to the larger manufacturing company and corporation. Learning from the case study provides interesting insights into the drivers, enablers, and some unanticipated additional benefits of service industry sustainability measurement beyond the compliance, and so contributes to extending the existing body of knowledge.
