Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie możliwych sposobów realizacji koncepcji zrównoważonego rozwoju w strategii przedsiębiorstwa na przykładzie konkretnej firmy. Jest on oparty na podstawowych badaniach prowadzonych według modelu Epsteina. Analiza obejmuje problem z perspektywy wejścia, procesów, pomiarów i wykonania. Model ten może pomóc przedsiębiorstwom w opracowaniu narzędzi do lepszego kierowania oraz zarządzania koncepcją zrównoważonego rozwoju. W przypadku gdy spółka chce zaproponować konkretny złożony system, każdy komponent powinien być powiązany z określonymi wskaźnikami wydajności w celu zagwarantowania kontroli nad realizacją i oceną stanu obszarów badawczych.(abstrakt oryginalny)

The objective of the article is to propose a possible way of implementing the concept of sustainability into the corporate strategy through the example of a particular company. It is based on primary research and on the Epstein model of corporate sustainability. We looked at the issue from the perspective of inputs, processes, measurement, and implementation. This model can lead enterprises in developing tools for better concepts in routing and management of corporate sustainability. In the case that the company wants to propose a concrete complex system, each component of the framework should be linked to specific performance indicators to ensure control over the implementation and assessment of the state of the researched areas.(original abstract)
