“…The strategies for the acquisition of full truck-load transportation services will reduce the carbon footprint and thus enhance the environmental sustainability in transportation services (Jothi Basu et al , 2015). Similarly, the strategies can be made to choose certified suppliers either for road or sea transport (Tesfay, 2014) and contracts can reduce the cost, risk and enhance the competitiveness (Eng-Larsson and Norrman, 2014). The trade-off among “price, time precision, transport time and environmental efficiency” was made by Lammgård and Andersson (2014) and it was found that while purchasing transportation services companies give priority to the price and still environmental sustainability needs the priority.…”

PurposeDespite increasing attentions to sustainable service supply chain management (SSSCM), a framework for performance evaluation of sustainable service only supply chain management (SSOSCM) is still missing. This paper tries to fill this gap and provides a novel conceptual framework.Design/methodology/approachThe articles related to SSSCM are fetched from the databases of SCOPUS and Web of Science. Analysis of 174 articles identified by the systematic literature review is further carried out.FindingsThis research identifies the sustainable practices for service only supply chain (SOSC) as environmental management, social management, economic management, customer management, health, safety and risk management, technical sustainability, institutional sustainability, information and technology management as well as two performance measurement criteria as operational performance and organizational performance. This paper provides a novel conceptual framework for the performance evaluation of SSOSCM. The results call for future exploration in the following three broad directions-(1) customer's perception, involvement and their behaviour towards sustainability in SOSC context; (2) trade-off, incentive mechanism and multilevel evaluation for achieving sustainability in SOSC and (3) sustainability in SOSC from various point of views.Practical implicationsThe managers can use the framework to assess the performance of the organization while researchers can explore the discussed research gaps.Originality/valueThis is the first paper that provides a novel conceptual framework for the performance evaluation of SSOSCM as well as potential future research directions.

“…Although SCM as a field reached maturity, research on SSCM in the oil industry is still in its infancy. The few existing studies on the topic focused on supply chain performance improvement through innovation strategies and open innovation programs [18]: suppliers development through management systems able to identify and manage the environmental and social risks involved in their operations [17]; developing a Green SCM framework to assess environmental sustainability in oil refinery operations [19]; assessing the impacts on environment of decommissioning offshore oil platforms [20]; challenges in integrating corporate strategic topic in SCM in oil companies and their suppliers [21]; and close cooperation of oil companies with suppliers to improve the environmental performance of logistics operations [22].…”

This paper analyses the influence of Sustainable Supply Chain Management strategies—Supplier Selection, Product Stewardship and Logistics Management—on Supply Chain Management functions—Planning, Execution, Coordination and Collaboration in the oil and gas distribution industry. Using multiple regression analyses, we performed the study on 79 companies from Romania and the Republic of Moldova operating in the oil and gas distribution industry. We concluded that Sustainable Supply Chain Management strategies have a positive and significant influence on Supply Chain Management functions, both overall and on each of the functions considered in the study. Overall, the findings of this study can be used by companies operating in oil and gas distribution to design Sustainable Supply Chain Management strategies to better address the requirements for more environmentally and socially responsible activities in their supply chains and to optimize their Supply Chain Management to better cope with Sustainable Supply Chain Management requirements and expectations.

“…Such solutions will emphasis on the utilization of the employees' knowledge for developing the techniques, and making the partnership with international traders using an open access program. The close ties between the company and suppliers will help to improve the environmental effects that can result in cost efficiency and effectiveness in SCM (Tesfay, 2014). The literature is evident that large percentage of the Oil and Gas producing countries are trying to improve their economy by compelling the foreign investor to trade with their local companies.…”

The multidisciplinary nature of the oil and gas sector makes Supply Chain Management (SCM) practices in this sector more complex. Moreover, lack of generic model/framework results in lack of sharing knowledge, training, proper model or framework, and add additional complexities to SCM in oil and gas sector. Furthermore, the SCM knowledge of oil and gas sector is scattered in internet, books, thesis, journals papers, conference's papers, online database, and organizations. It lacks the obvious structure to unify, facilitate, reuse, and manage that scattered knowledge. Thus, it receives little attention from researchers. Current researchers have not focused on fundamental and essential guidelines to establish a baseline for SCM in oil and gas sector. This paper identifies and proposes common SCM practices concepts in oil and gas sector to unify the view of SCM practices in the form of a conceptual framework that can be seen as a baseline for this domain. The framework will be validated and refined to assist as a representational layer to unify, facilitate, and expedite the access to SCM practices in oil and gas sector. The specific aims are to facilitate knowledge sharing, combining and matching different SCM activities according to the different situations.
