“…However, they are not necessarily located in their conventional value chain, which means that ICV encompasses LC but is not limited to it [25]. It also includes LC development actions (for instance, education and training in the company's professions sector, capacity building for local firms within the same industrial sector, technology transfer, and so on) [26]. ICV also encompasses the shared use of goods and services with other sectors (for instance, the construction of a new road, which can be of benefit to local companies or communities; the oversizing of a power generation infrastructure to bring electricity not only to the company's project infrastructures but also to local companies or communities, at a lower cost; and the oversizing of a water filtration plant to facilitate access to water for local companies or communities) [27].…”

International companies are more and more seeking to act proactively by proposing In-Country Value (ICV) strategies to create sustainable local values in the host countries in which they carry out projects. Still, such sustainable local values are complex to identify because they are often indirectly related to their own value chains, project activities, and outcomes. There are, therefore, both theoretical and industrial needs to model and estimate sustainable values brought by complex projects in host countries, considering direct and indirect effects. In this paper, a systems thinking-based approach combined with a frequency analysis first permitted to build up a model of the sustainable values created by the project in a host country. Then, after underlining the complexity of such a model, a Domain Mapping Matrix (DMM) approach was proposed to help build a process to estimate project impacts in terms of ICV creation. An application to a case study built up with an industrial practitioner (an oil and gas company) permitted to test and validate the overall model and approach. It notably showed how such a model permitted to facilitate discussions among stakeholders and laid the foundations of ICV creation-oriented decision-making processes.
