Analysing the Enablers of Green Supply Chain Management: FDM and ISM Approach

Abstract

This study aims to identify and analyse the green supply chain management enablers (GSCMEs) in the field of manufacturing industries in recent scenario. GSCMEs are identified using literature review and brainstorming session conducted with the experts. Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) applied to accept relevant GSCMEs, Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM) applied to analyse the relationship among GSCMEs and Matriced’ Impacts Croise´s Multiplication Applique´ea´ un Classement (MICMAC) analysis categories GSCMEs on the basis of driving and dependence power. Research findings suggest that “Top management supports” and “GSCM based strategic planning” are the important GSCMEs in the efficient and effective implementation of green supply chain management (GSCM). This study provides relevant information to all GSCM practitioners regarding implementation of green action plan and environment regulations in industries. The research work assist stakeholders to identify higher driving power GSCMEs in the manufacturing industries for effective implementation of GSCM.
