“…Our finding that green supplier integration was significantly related to operational and financial performance is also consistent with the findings of several previous studies [45]. However, some scholars argued that GSCI may be detrimental to financial performance in some circumstances [9,46].…”

This study investigates the impacts of three dimensions of green supply chain integration (GSCI) on operational and financial performance, from both a contingency and a configuration perspective. From the contingency perspective, we used hierarchical regression to determine the impacts of individual GSCI dimensions (green internal, customer and supplier integration) and their interactions on firm performance. From the configuration perspective, we used cluster analysis to develop patterns of GSCI, which were analyzed in terms of GSCI strength and balance. Analysis of variance was used to examine the relationship between GSCI pattern and firm performance. We used data collected from manufacturing firms in Shanxi, Shandong, Beijing, Guangdong and Jiangsu to test hypotheses. The findings from both the contingency and configuration perspective indicate that GSCI was related to both operational and financial performance. Furthermore, the interaction between green internal integration and green customer integration was positively related to both operational and financial performance, while the interaction between green internal integration and green supplier integration was negatively related to financial performance. The interaction between green customer integration and green supplier integration was positively related to financial performance.

“…GSCM has been defined as "integrating environmental thinking into supply-chain management, including product design, material sourcing and selection, manufacturing processes, delivery of the final product to consumers as well as end-of-life management of the product after its useful life" [Srivastava, (2007), p.54]. GSCM has focused on the entire supply chain activities like total quality management, lean supply chain management, reverse logistics, life cycle assessment and product stewardship (Srivastava, 2007;Hoejmose et al, 2012).…”

Industries are facing pressure to reduce pollution and become more eco-friendly due to increasing environmental awareness among customers and due to government regulations. Because of these reasons, industries are now adopting eco-friendly concepts to reduce pollution in the entire manufacturing process. The green supply chain management (GSCM) concept is a methodology to achieve a pollution free environment from procurement to after sales of products. This paper identifies the foremost barriers to implementing GSCM, ranked on the basis of significant factors in the Indian plastic processing industry. Thirty-eight barriers were identified from the available literature and through consultation with industry experts and academicians. They were statistically analysed on the basis of opinions from experts, using statistical tools like T-test, expectation values and analysis of variance (ANOVA).

“…In order to embed this open-minded approach, it is crucial to have leadership teams in place that encourage this way of thinking and a culture of collaboration [119]. Trust between supply chain entities creates momentum and supports suppliers to share innovative ideas with other supply chain entities [146][147][148]. Trust is important when supply chain entities collaborate as it facilitates commitment and emergence of a common vision of participants [147].…”

Effective Life Cycle Management in SMEs: Use of a Sector-Based Approach to Overcome Barriers

2018

Abstract:One approach to incorporate sustainability in organisations is the implementation of life cycle management (LCM). LCM involves sharing responsibility for addressing environmental impacts across the entire supply chain of products and services, extending from raw material extraction to end-of-life of the product. The New Zealand primary sector relies heavily on natural resources and provides about 70% of the country's export revenue. Most companies in primary industry sectors in New Zealand are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Successful sector-wide uptake of LCM can potentially facilitate effective measurement and management of environmental impacts caused by this sector. The aim of this research was to identify the barriers and enablers to successful LCM uptake by New Zealand primary sector SMEs within a sector-based context. An extensive review of the literature was undertaken in the areas of change management for SMEs and supply chain management. The main factors influencing successful LCM uptake include owner/manager influence, environmental culture, resource availability, future orientation, knowledge of environmental issues, market requirements, geographical separation of production and consumption, awareness of own environmental issues and communication/information sharing. This paper forms the basis for future research and development of tools for the effective implementation of sector based approaches to LCM in the primary industry. The results of this research include a capability maturity model and the development of a cloud based platform for collaboration and communication around LCM.Keywords: life cycle management (LCM); sector-based approach (SBA); sustainability; agriculture; small and medium sized enterprise (SME); supply chain management (SCM)
