| dc.description.abstract | The objective of this study is to the sustainable product-service system in the Ethiopian in the case of the building construction industry. In terms of approaches, the study has utilized qualitative and qualitative research approaches. A total sample of 33 experts participated and questionnaires were distributed by snowball method. Accordingly, primary data was collected from thirty-three respondents through questionnaires and secondary data was collected in different literatures. The collected data was analyzed using Fuzzy DEMATEL methods. The Ethiopian building industry plays a crucial role that is social, economic, and environmental issues and its activities are vital to achieving national socio-economic development goals. Building construction activity makes extensive use of natural resources and various sources of energy. A sustainable product-service system has environmental, economic, and social benefits. And also, has an interdependent and interrelated causal relationship and includes measures of qualitative information. The Ethiopian building industry faces challenges in decreasing waste generation reducing environmental impacts and increasing social responsibility. Hence, this study proposes a set of attributes to create theoretical and practical measures to assess the Ethiopian building industry by applying Fuzzy decision-making trials with laboratory and analytical network processes to analyze the causal interrelationships among the proposed attributes. The results provide insight into sustainable production and indicate that product service qualities are the most common causes of a sustainable product service system, and product waste generation, workplace health and safety, energy and water consumption, stakeholder relationship, and employee perception are the main criteria.
