In this paper the issue of supply chain management and product lifecycle from the perspective of sustainable development is discussed. Taking up this theme is still rare in Poland. The aim of this paper is to show the relationships between the concepts of sustainable development, supply chain management and product lifecycle management, which seem to be important for increasing the company's ability to develop and market successful products. Product lifecycle management is the tool that can be used for implementing sustainable development in the supply chain at every stage of the product lifecycle because it can integrate and organize processes and accelerate the flow of information throughout the supply chain, contributing to achieve the desired values in each stage of the product lifecycle.
Management of product lifecycle and technology lifecycle should occur in integrated way. Innovative technology achieved in own B+R point or from the surrounding of the enterprise creates conditions to implement new product solutions. The introduction of a new product and new technology must take place in a synchronised way and should take into account the value for the buyer. Moreover, it should not be forgotten that the relationship between the product, technology and the environment is essential in an attempt to reach a state of a sustainable enterprise.
