Delivering a New Cleaning Product to Maximize its Potential for Sustainable Development
Introduction
As a profit-for-company, sustainability will be a vital issue because of the need to balance sustainable ways regarding protecting the environment and profitability motives. The new cleaning product needs to be sustainable and ensure that the environment is not adversely affected. The organization that manufactures the product is in the private sector. Therefore, the primary objective is to make profitability. Suppose the commodities fail to make substantial profits. In that case, they may eventually lead to the project being discontinued, which will make one of the ultimate objectives of sustainability not to be achieved. In contemporary society, many sustainability issues may affect the new product from being successful (Atz et al., 2019). Therefore, the startup selling the new product may fail to either make any profits or contribute to the goals and objectives of sustainability, which would be positive for the environment and the millennium development goals. 
In the present world, any company that is not listed on any of the stock exchanges in the world has some limited financial flows, which makes it quite challenging to roll out products and services to consumers globally. In this regard, it also makes it quite difficult to achieve some large-scale sustainability goals and objectives. In this global perspective, there is a need for a company seeking to expand globally to consider that there may be some current affairs issues that may negatively impact the sustainability goals and objectives of a company seeking to expand internationally (Atz et al., 2019). Therefore, such a company that is affected by current affairs issues in the world may not be able to contribute to sustainability outcomes. Most companies meet their sustainability goals because they can meet the sales and profitability required for any company.  
In the current scenario, the present Russia/Ukraine war has negatively impacted many companies globally. In this regard, there is a need to appreciate that Russia and Ukraine are some of the best countries in the world because of the trade sustainability ideologies they possess. Therefore, the war between Russia and Ukraine has negatively impacted some relevant global commodities such as wheat, gas, and oil. In this regard, the world has witnessed soaring food, gas, and oil prices, triggering inflationary pressures worldwide. As a result, gas, oil, wheat, and other food commodity prices have continued to skyrocket, leading to more inflation. 
In this scenario, most consumers have been more concerned about the prices of basic commodities rather than meeting sustainability goals. Sustainability has continued to take a back seat because most consumers are only concerned about what they can pay for the products. Therefore, most consumers can change their minds regarding purchasing a product because its pricing structure affects sustainability goals. Conclusively, sustainability is one of the best aspects of a company in the 21st century for most organizations (Atz et al., 2019). Therefore, there is a need for most organizations to become prudent in delivering sustainable outcomes. As part of meeting sustainability goals and objectives, the company that develops a new cleaning product has to ensure that it is environmentally friendly and its home-cleaning products are friendly and do not pollute the environment. 
Project Management Approach
The new cleaning product will be delivered as a commodity conscious of the environment and the cleaners involved. The project management approach will also feature a safe, eco-friendly commodity that is innovative and highly biodegradable. In addition, the project will also entail positioning the product as environmentally safe that is suited for retail outlets and customers (Cristelo et al., 2019). Some of the primary attributes of the product will be degreasers, tar remover, odor control, hand cleaners, and industrial cleaners. The aims and objectives of the sustainable project are to create a mass-market and sustainable surface cleaner for the total lifecycle. In this regard, it is necessary to incorporate the variables that primarily drive the results for environmental concerns in surface cleaning. 
The project will also seek to ensure that water consumption and water temperature are some issues focused on because of sustainability goals. The amount and choice of surfactant will play an immense role in ensuring that the new cleaning product will not adversely affect the environment (Baratova et al., 2021). For example, the bathroom trigger sprays, bleach, and acid toilet cleaners will primarily focus on plastic packaging, which can be well disposed of to avoid environmental pollution. Some specific ingredients that are environmentally friendly will also be used to package the commodity for transportation to retailers. The type of surfactant is very relevant for bleaching toilet surface cleaners to ensure they also contribute to sustainable development. 
For the floor surface trigger sprays, the primary driving force will be plastic packaging, considered environmentally sustainable compared to other materials such as wood paper products. It is essential for most of the cleaning materials in the UK to have a charter, which covers various requirements and activities that arrange from environmental and human safety of products and chemicals. In addition, the issues of occupational safety and health are issues that will be keenly addressed for sustainability (Atz et al., 2019). Consumer information and resource use will also be relevant parameters in the aims and objectives of the sustainable surface cleaning product. The twin goals and objectives of the project will be to ensure that there is a continuous effort of the industry to make and design products that are more sustainable for the environment. The new product will also seek to encourage customers of the product to initiate more sustainable ways of carrying out their cleaning, household maintenance, and washing. 
The project's primary objective is to develop a sustainable surface cleaner product that will incorporate the sourcing of materials, distribution, packaging, manufacturing, supply chain, product evaluation, and disposal. In addition, there is a need to create an input of biodegradable and reusable materials for the factories manufacturing the product (Baratova et al., 2021). For example, the downstream stage will ensure that the sourcing of raw materials will entail non-toxic or organic chemicals, which are more friendly to the environment. In addition, such downstream sourcing will entail incorporating biodegradable materials for spraying bottles used to package the new floor surface cleaning product. 
The new product's supply chain needs to ensure that the materials used to distribute the product are environmentally friendly. There is a need for the new venture to ensure a thorough review and reevaluation of the current supply chain practices. In this regard, an emissions report will be vital to know the detrimental effects of the product (Atz et al., 2019). The new product will also require the incorporation of supply chain shocks and climate change through data analysis. In addition, reviewing the supply chain's resilience to external shocks will be crucial. Furthermore, the new sustainable cleaning product will require some form of enhanced transparency in value chains and supply chain management.   
Manufacturing concerns will entail reviewing the terms and activities of the processes required to make the product to ensure that the commodity is environmentally sustainable. New management systems will be useful to test the product's sustainability. Such state-of-the-art systems will test whether the materials used in the manufacture and packaging of the product are biodegradable and sustainable (Atz et al., 2019). In addition, it will be pivotal for the employees to have the training, education, and development courses that will teach them the need for protecting the environment in the manufacturing and selling of the product.  
Distribution is another area that will require utmost care to ensure that the product rolled to the market meets the threshold of environmental sustainability in the 21st century. Therefore, it will be imperative to manage the distribution of the new product from the perspective of ecological impact (Cristelo et al., 2019). Incorporating some localization elements will ensure that the new product's supply is brought closer to demand. In addition, the implementation of data analytics in the industry will ensure the product meets the minimum demands of sustainability in the 21st century. 
Organizational Context
Project management in an organizational context involves a response to strategic drivers. In the contemporary world, a firm's external and internal environment normally determines how project management is configured to add value. In this scenario, the project management's strategic positioning adds value to such programs (Srivastava et al., 2022). In the case of the new cleaning product, the strategic driver is to promote a sustainable commodity that does not pollute the environment. In this case, the project managers would seek to ensure that there is some form of professional identity that ensures that the people involved in producing the new cleaning product have certifications and are qualified. In addition, the product of the new product needs to meet some quality standards to ensure the cleaning commodity has a footprint in the marketplace.     
From an organizational perspective, the new project for the product is meant to address the environmental, social, and economic issues that will ensure the production of the new product is environmentally sustainable. The project will ensure that it is economically viable and green. In this regard, the product shipping and packaging will ensure that the project will be economically viable and not mess up the environment (Jemai et al., 2022). The new product will entail some concentrated formulas with some proper handling safeguards. Packaging materials will be very economical and will not be made of some heavy metals that will be costly to the manufacturing process. The project of the new product will have recyclable packaging to ensure it is economically and environmentally sustainable. Some refillable bottles will also impact the new product because they will be economical and environmentally friendly. The new surface cleaning product will also entail some efficient packaging materials that have reduced volume and lightweight. Therefore, it will ensure that the new product's production is cost-effective and efficient to ensure the processing process is not expensive. 
Such a new floor-cleaning product will play a leading role in disinfecting the surfaces of many areas in domestic and business such as healthcare institutions. In this regard, the cleaning product will have a role to play in being an integrating framework for occupational and infection illness prevention. The product will play an immense role in an integrated approach to preventing occupational illnesses and other healthcare infections. In healthcare institutions, for example, disinfecting and cleaning promote occupational health and safety ideals that promote solving social issues (Cristelo et al., 2019). The new product will ensure infection prevention in society through some healthy surface cleaning standards, such as in hospitals and healthcare facilities. In addition, the objective of the new cleaning product will be to provide a more integrative approach to some effective and efficient environmental surface disinfection and cleaning standards. As a result, it will help safeguard the respiratory health issues of personnel involved with the product, such as in the health care system.  
The environmental impact of cleaning products is essential to focus on in the present era. Although surface cleaning is known to ensure that the surrounding environment is clean, people always want to ensure that they live in a well-maintained, clean, and healthy environment. In the present age, cleaning products aim to promote environmental sustainability. In a design to promote the environment, they will improve the indoor environment by eradicating germs, eliminating allergens, and removing dust (Baratova et al., 2021). The new cleaning product has both the health and environmental impacts that will promote the hygiene of the places that it will be used. In many instances, commercial application of cleaning products usually affects both the outdoor and the indoor environment, leading to waste and pollution. For example, some cleaning products hurt waste, air pollution, and water pollution if not well handled. The cleaning product packaging will be made of recyclable materials that can be reused. Empty bottles and packaging often end up in rivers and landfills and pollute the environment. Therefore, the new packing will be something that ...
