| Sumario: | Elaboration of steps for the strategic management of environmentally sound business solutions is essential for achieving sustainable development goals in Ukraine. Although strategic directions for decarbonization of the transport sector have already been developed at the national level, effectiveness of sustainable decision-making is closely related to the greening initiative on the local level. The purpose of the paper is to form a framework of greening strategy and sustainable decision-making for transport companies that is based on the necessity to reduce emissions. The research findings are obtained using the systems analysis, SWOT analysis, and cost-benefit method. The paper proves that choosing biogas (methane) as a main transport fuel is a viable and cost-effective initiative and can be used as a financial ground for the company’s strategic formation process that involves both tactical and organizational dimensions. The analysis results also showed threats and opportunities for greening based on switching transport companies to biogas and requiring steps of governmental support in developing biogas station networks. According to the green course, this study also reveals the possibility of establishing strategic management due to an authority delegation map between services and top management of a transport company. The study has made it possible to improve strategic management of a transport company by developing an optimal scheme of interaction between stakeholders and departments in strategic leadership for greening.
