“…Firms with a strong commitment to the environment perform well on long-term measurers [95,133]. In this study, we used economic performance measures at a more operational level because GSCM practices are operationally focused [13].…”

“…The literature suggests that waste reducing and recycling initiatives are precisely those that have "the best direct potential" to make the use of materials more efficient and achieve cost reduction by limiting the purchase of raw materials and cutting the cost of waste disposal, thus improving both the environmental and economic performance [10,[93][94][95][96]. However, CLO will also lead firms to design and develop products using nonhazardous materials at a higher price in order to minimize waste disposal [93].…”

Abstract:The concept of green supply chain management (GSCM) is still in its infancy and has been implemented only to a limited extent. Strategic orientation is an important factor affecting its implementation. No reliable and valid strategic orientation construct has been developed for greening a supply chain. This study proposes closed-loop orientation (CLO) as the appropriate strategic orientation to implement GSCM practices successfully and develops a valid measurement of CLO. Data collected from 296 Chinese manufacturers were analyzed using the structural equation modeling method to examine the relationships among CLO, GSCM practice and environmental and economic performance. The results show that both CLO and GSCM have positive effects on the environmental performance and economic performance and that CLO positively impacts the level of implementation of GSCM. The results also show that GSCM completely mediates the relationships between CLO and environmental and economic performance.

“…Soler et al [102] develop a case study highlighting that purchasers in the supply chain perceive and use environmental principles in a different way about their role. Shi et al [103] formulate a theory that is connected with the application of energy efficiency and sustainability initiatives at intra-organizational level. The examined companies show both a reactive and proactive approach.…”

Environmental Sustainability and Energy-Efficient Supply Chain Management: A Review of Research Trends and Proposed Guidelines

2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper conducts a structured review on the topic of energy efficiency and environmental sustainability in the supply chain management context to define research trends on the topic and identify research gaps. The review is carried out using the largest databases of peer-reviewed literature (Scopus and Web of Science). A sample of 122 papers focusing on the topic of energy-efficient and sustainable supply chain management was selected and analyzed through descriptive and content analysis. The review highlights that despite there is a growing research trend on the topic, different research gaps remain to be covered. These gaps concern the factors influencing energy efficiency and environmental sustainability initiatives, the classification of energy efficiency and environmental sustainability initiatives, the impact of energy efficiency and environmental sustainability on supply chain performance, the customer perspective in sustainable and energy-efficient supply chain, and the different technologies supporting the energy efficiency and environmental sustainability initiatives. The research gaps and the research questions identified offer the opportunity to identify areas of investigation to design future research directions and propose guidelines in the field of supply chain management.

“…Cooperation with customers is strongly associated with environmental performance. (Shi et al 2012) suggested a structural model of natural resource-based GSCM and found intra-and interorganizational environmental practices, performance measures, and institutional drivers as important constructs. Causal relationships within and between the constructs were proposed in the form of hypotheses.…”

The role of customers in green supply chain management needs to be identified and recognized as an important research area. This paper is an attempt to explore the involvement aspect of customers towards greening of the supply chain (SC). An empirical research approach has been used to collect primary data to rank different variables for effective customer involvement in green concept implementation in SC. An interpretive structural-based model has been presented, and variables have been classified using matrice d'impacts croises-multiplication appliqué a un classement analysis. Contextual relationships among variables have been established using experts' opinions. The research may help practicing managers to understand the interaction among variables affecting customer involvement. Further, this understanding may be helpful in framing the policies and strategies to green SC. Analyzing interaction among variables for effective customer involvement in greening SC to develop the structural model in the Indian perspective is an effort towards promoting environment consciousness.
