Case Study: The analysis of an integrated project management.

Textile is still considered as special waste, and in the Metropolitan Area of Turin 4.960 tons (Città Metropolitana di Torino, 2020) of it are collected every year. This aspect, among others, is one of the challenges that this territory is confronting. The research paper has the aim to show the results that emerged from the state of the art of a specific area in Italy. These data are then confronted with information about a local company, Dual Sanitaly, that produces and distributes textile medical devices throughout Italy. The analysis is the starting point of a shift from a linear to a systemic process. The application of the holistic approach helped to focus both on the aspects that define both physically and socially the Metropolitan Area of Turin and on the flows of energy, matter and information of the company. The collection of data follows a path that goes from macro to micro and from a generic point of view to specific topics and aspects. The ultimate goal is to have a solid base from which to identify challenges and opportunities, both in the territory and in the company, to understand which elements are fundamental to create a systemic pattern of people, projects and stories.
