Organizational and production dispersions in manufacturing enterprises create situations where manufacturers are asked to conform to multiple sustainability standards to participate in targeted markets. Variations between standards can create a challenge for stakeholders to identify, select, and implement applicable standards. This paper investigates the use of ontologies as a formal means for representing and comparing sustainability standards based on information requirements. We analyze three selected standards and subsequently model their information elements in the form of three separate taxonomies. We then demonstrate the implementation of reasoning mechanisms to semi-automatically determine gaps and overlaps in standard coverage for a given product.
