“…The suppliers always are fighting to avoid recession in their workplace and practice to implement the appropriate sustainability model, because they are faced with high investments and low profit. Supply chain management contributes to the overall accomplishment of a supply chain, and one poor supplier activity affects very quickly the performance of the whole chain [61]. S(5), S(6), and S(13), "encouragement from customers," "motivation of suppliers and vendors towards green practices," and "pressure from non-government organizations (NGOs) lobby," are also in the same layers.…”

Sustainability draws increased supply chain management (SCM) attention. This article analyzes critical success to the assessment, evaluation, and attainment of sustainable supply chain management (SSCM), assessed through critical-success identification and qualitative data analysis. Namely, a literature review selected of 188 articles, published between January 1994 and November 2016, helps identify the most influential success factors. The qualitative data analysis pertains to fifteen such successes, identified in the literature review and through our collaboration with other academic researchers and industrial specialists. Notably, the study's qualitative data analysis, interpretive structural modeling (ISM), unconceals the mutual impact among the most prominent SSCM success factors. The economic benefits and environmental awareness of suppliers are recognized as the most significant success factors, which could allow business enterprises and other organizations to implement a SSCM framework, with intentionality and the sustainability in their business. The article concludes with suggestions for future research directions.

“…We use structural equation modeling (SEM) to check the validity and reliability of the recommended model. As per the standard criteria, the values of GFI, AGFI, CFI, NFI and NNFI should be higher than or near to 0.90 and the value of RMSEA should (Hsu et al, 2013;Malviya and Kant, 2016;Su et al, 2016) and GTMA (Malik et al, 2015;Muduli et al, 2013) may be also used for analyzing the multi-criteria decision-making relationships (Ohuchi and Kaji, 1989). To illustrate each capability of DEMATEL, ISM, AHP and GTMA, the comparison has been made in Table III.…”

Purpose Sustainability has been on the executive agenda for years and it is now one of the fastest growing supply chain management trends. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the barriers for the adoption and implementation of the sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) concept. Design/methodology/approach This study has been divided into two phases such as identification of barriers and qualitative analysis. First, to identify the most influential barriers, the authors offer a systematic literature review, taking 188 papers published from 2010 to November 2016 into account. The investigation phase led to the selection of 15 barriers based on the literature in consultation with industrial experts and academicians. Second, the interpretive structural modeling qualitative analysis was used to find out the mutual influences between the 15 barriers by a survey. Findings Further, the authors propose and illustrate the cross-impact matrix multiplication applied to classification analysis to test a framework that extrapolates SSCM barriers and their relationships. “Inadequate information technology implementation” has been identified as the most important barrier that may force organizations to implement SSCM practices to ensure their business sustainability. Research limitations/implications The authors presented some limitations in their research in some fields which could allow new researchers and practitioners to conduct the future research to grow in different dimensions. Practical implications Practitioners or policymakers usually are not familiar with these types of research works; that is why most of these surveys remain theoretical and conceptual. Future investigation needs to be done in practical application domain instead of merely giving opinions. Originality/value Based on the authors’ research, the researchers have more attention to work in conceptual analysis due to other fields, but the authors believe that even with the implementation of SSCM, many remarkable areas still exist for future research which could help in development. The authors also provide more details in this paper.

“…As regards items (2) and (3), the discussion in this paper is restricted to the case in which the transitive relation applies to the concept map, in order to construct effective and reasonable concept maps. Flexible ISM (FISM) [9][10][11], which is a procedure of structural modeling, is introduced. FISM is a modeling procedure using partially filled pre-order relation matrix, which is an extension of the pre-ordering relation matrix.…”

SUMMARYThis paper aims at using structural modeling and the concept map to support concept formation by students. The following procedures are proposed: (1) presentation of concept labels and their identification; (2) construction of consistent concept map; (3) precise specification of the necessary minimum number of guidance points. It is generally considered that the educational process should not be a mere feeding of knowledge to the student, but should encourage knowledge formation by the student, based on the understanding of related concepts. The concept map method was proposed in pedagogy as a means of extracting the process and the content of concept formation in quantitative form, for interactive discussion between the teacher and the student. Hitherto, it has usually been assumed that the concept labels to be used in concept map formation are given by the teacher to the student. In the proposed method, in contrast, the student is also given the opportunity to present concept labels. Another aspect of the past approach is that the teacher has been expected to find logical inconsistencies in the concept maps constructed by the student or to specify guidance points. This paper restricts the discussion to concept maps with the transitive property. Then, by introducing FISM, which is a structural modeling technique, effective and consistent concept map formation by the student is supported, and the minimum necessary number of guidance points are specified. An experiment was performed using the prototype system, and the possibility of learning was verified by the results obtained by the subjects.
