Abstract: In this paper, we propose a Knowledge to use experience feedback techniques in order to keep track of eco- design decisions. The integration of eco-design in industries is becoming more and more considered as a necessary condition of Sustainable development. Even sustainable rules become to be defined as norms, but the application of these rules in design still difficult. Firstly, eco-design criteria are extracted from documents in order to help the definition of experience feedback sheets main points. CommonKADS generic models are also used in order to define adequate sheets to reasoning and task types linked to eco-design phases. 1 INTRODUCTION The integration of eco-design in industries is becoming more and more considered as a necessary condition of Sustainable development. It should be noted that the consideration of environmental issues in design can modify the objectives, outputs, resources, processes and performance indicators of a company. Eco-design goals (using of renewable materials, recycling, reducing energy, etc.) coupled with economic and social objectives (implication of stakeholders, sharing knowledge, considering culture aspect, etc.) are more or less considered in proactive or prescriptive way. These approaches lead to develop innovative solutions (circular economy, hybrid energy production, etc.). We can note that eco- design joins the environmental innovation logic (Depret and Hamdouch, 2009; Michelin et al, 2014) allowing to reduce material and energy impact. Even some rules are identified for sustainability but the application of these rules still no common in industries. Each industry try to understand these rules and apply some of them in companies. In order to answer this problem, we use two types of approaches: extracting criteria from documents related to sustainability studies and keeping track of eco-design activity using experience feedback sheets. This paper presents this work and especially how extracted criteria can be used as an index of experience feedback sheets in order to facilitate their reuse. 2 EXTRACTING CRITERIA FROM DOCUMENTS As first steps of this study, design indicators can be identified from analysing experience feedback. Therefore, expertise documents gathered in a young company, containing design data about materials and processes, are analysed. We show in this section how the features defining these materials and processes have been identified. 2.1 Eco-design Documents Altermaker is a young start-up specialized in software development to support design for sustainability. The company led analysis on industrial materials and processes used in mechanical engineering. The results are stocked as MsPowerpoint documents in which several elements are defined for each material or process: advantages, disadvantages, short description and specific comparisons. In these documents (0), several features are interesting to consider and other ones need more analysis. Our study aims at analysing these documents in order to define the concepts that show the main features of given materials and processes. Matta N., Delagado C., Reyes T. and Jouanne G.
