SUSTAINABILITY ASSESSMENT TOOL

Fuente: WIPO "sustainability"
A computer-implemented method for assessing sustainability impacts of an alternative option. The method includes accessing a sustainability assessment tool (190) which includes pre-defined templates (300, 400, 500) to guide users through structured sustainability questions. The method includes receiving input data (800, 900) for an alternative option related to a plurality of sustainability categories (804, 806, 808) and integrating the input data into a framework comprising a plurality of sustainability sub-categories. The method includes analyzing the input data (206) and identifying relative risks and benefits (1320, 1324) associated with the alternative option in comparison with a baseline option. The method includes generating comparative visual outputs (1300) to visually represent the relative sustainability risks and benefits (1320, 1324) of the alternative option.
