Designing a Mixed Evaluating System for Green Manufacturing of Automotive Industry

The article proposed, from a sustainable development perspective, an index system based on Sustainability Balanced Scorecard (SBSC), including the main index of Financial, Internal process, Customer, Learning and growth, Social and the sub- index which comprised 28 indexes to evaluate the Green Manufacturing (GM) of automotive industry. Based on the index system, an evaluation model integrates by back-propagation artificial neural network (BPANN) and genetic algorithm (GA) was introduced. Using established model and indicators evaluated GM in four automotive companies; the key result of the evaluated show that: China’s automotive manufacturing enterprises still have big room for improvement in respect of customer satisfaction, resource consumption, community service, low-carbon activities etc., so the strategy and management activities that put much pressure on these respect are necessary.
