Undoubtedly, Digital Transformation (DT) is becoming increasingly crucial for successfully implementing manufacturing operations. This paper discusses Digital Culture’s role in sustainable digital transformation projects by discussing the digital culture attributes that must be inside the organisation’s top management level. These attributes are collaboration, innovation, accountability, transparency, customer-centricity, and human development. By identifying these attributes in a clear and incremental model, manufacturing organisations will be able to incorporate the digital culture factor in their digital transformation operations to ensure the sustainability of these operations.

Owing to the issued regulations, industries tend to reduce their environmental impacts (EIs) while keeping a minimal manufacturing cost. The process plan operations order has an influence on the EIs and cost of a product. In this paper, we propose a new based scenarios methodology by using feature technology (FT) which allows the nonenvironmental expert designer to choose the most optimal manufacturing scenario with the best compromise EIs/Cost. First, we present an overview of works using the FT in CAD phase to reduce EIs and cost of a manufacturing process. Secondly, we propose a new methodology based on both FT and scenarisation which helps inexperienced eco-designers. Finally, a case study is considered to validate the proposed approach.

This has contributed to the development of various environmental laws and regulations such as the "Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment," the "Restriction of Hazardous Substances," and the "Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals" regulations and the "Energy Using Products" Directives. Our work contributes to the development of eco-friendly product manufacturing processes. In order to estimate and optimize the environmental impacts of a product, most of the methodologies, concepts, and tools that integrate computer-aided design (CAD) and life cycle assessment systems generally exploit the feature technology at the level of each feature independently of the others, i.e., "microplanning." The feature interaction technology (FIT) is treated only in few studies, but it is pivotal in the eco-manufacturing process. In this paper, we propose a new manufacturing-scenarios-based methodology by using FIT and a Multi-criteria Decision Support Method (MCDSM), which helps manufacturers maintain their marketplaces by producing goods in an eco-friendly way. In fact, this methodology helps designers choose from the CAD design phase the most ecological manufacturing process from possible existent scenarios in real time.
