Engineering Management: ENG93000 Assignment 1 Part A Draft Submission

This assignment submission is a draft for ENG93000, focusing on Engineering Management for a Sustainable Future. The document includes a table with an annotated bibliography section, incorporating Harvard referencing and comments on key points from various sources, such as Poff et al., Singla, Ahuja, and Sethi, Bag, Anand, and Pandey, and Seuring and Müller. The annotated bibliography classifies each reference and provides brief summaries. The assignment also includes an introduction paragraph discussing sustainable engineering, the role of the World Federation for Engineering Organisations (WFEO), and the need for adapting sustainability due to increasing urbanization. The draft aims to address the guiding question: What does the literature suggest that engineering managers need to do to achieve effective Sustainable Engineering Management practices in your area of specialisation?

Poff et al. claims that there is need to
rehabilitate the old infrastructure by
constructing new dams is regarded as the
appropriate solution to declining climate
risk. Nevertheless, to realise a border
need for sustainable freshwater demands
for extension of the prevalent water
resources management pattern past the
tapered economic process by including
socially valued ecosystem services and
functions. As a result, it has led to the
introduction of a novel decision structure
known as eco-engineering decision
scaling (EEDS) which unambiguously

and quantitatively investigate the trade-
offs in the ecological and engineering
performance metrics on the probable
management practices regarding
forthcoming climate and hydrological
conditions.

According to Singla, Ahuja, and Sethi,
2018 outlines various importance through
the use of technology push (TP) as well
as demand pull (DP) activities that are
used for realising sustainable
development in the manufacturing sector.

According to Sering and Muller 2008
there is need to consider ecological as
well as social problems in the supply
chain management. Accordingly this help
to trigger more interest in green
sustainable supply chain management.

Section 3:
Introduction
Sustainable engineering is a procedure used for operating or designing systems in a way that
they utilise resources as well as energy in a sustainable manner. Accordingly, sustainable
engineering is a field of numerous challenges of developing products, technical systems in
addition to services so as to contribute towards heightened resource effectiveness and
sustainability. The World Federation for Engineering Organisations (WFEO) provides
appropriate knowledge and skills to effectively address the various challenges in the society.
Consequently, due to increasing worldwide populace which keep on moving to urban regions
there is need for adapting sustainability. Therefore, the demand for clean air, energy, safe
waste disposal, energy and transportation to drive environmental protection.
