  Organisational and government concerns about environmental sustainability
(ES) are on the increase. While a significant amount of research from a wide
range of domains has addressed various ES challenges, intuitively, Business
Process Management (BPM), with its focus on process improvement and process
performance measurement, has much to offer the ES field. In this paper we aim
to understand the BPM research contribution to ES, including specific
Environmental Performance Indicators (EPI), and the BPM concepts that have been
utilized in the ES context. To this end we conduct a systematic literature
review to capture prior research focused on BPM and ES, coding the articles
according to their contribution to EPIs and other ES concepts, while also
contrasting their focus with main challenges identified in industry reports.
Our study identifies which EPIs have been addressed in prior BPM research and
highlights areas of future contribution.
