Abstract
In the 21st Century environmental concerns become global one of most important issues. Business put their attention on their product and their green procurement processes.

Global business through supply chain green procurement processes requires make systemic changes to meet their competition in their markets. We need good Eco-efficiency information in order to evaluate such as clean production technology adaptation, compute products’ Eco-efficiency as well as future investment decisions among others.
This paper based on the concept of “Eco-efficiency” framework, to evaluate both the economic performance and the environmental performance of Automobile Industry. This study consists of literature review, data research, and case study to reveal and understand the status of Eco-efficiency development, current status and future development. This research also provides systematic thinking for Eco-efficiency and construct Automobile Industry Eco-efficiency indicator.
Taiwan Kuozui Motors (Toyota) were selected for the case study. The study shows the following results: The eco-efficiency ratios calculated from the data provided by the company showed that these ratios could be used for companies to track their performance and to set the priority with TPS (Toyota Production System) for future improvement, as well as to be the internal and external communication tool.
