“…They also find, that EMS foster team-based approaches. Together with Llerena (1999) they relate this to learning mechanisms and processes of organisational learning that are strongly oriented towards exploration (March, 1991) and higher order learning (Argyris & Schön, 1978). This link additionally supports the view that EMS foster environmentally innovation.…”

“…This link additionally supports the view that EMS foster environmentally innovation. Also, Llerena (1999) as well as Porter and van der Linde (1995) discuss the possibility of organisational failure in terms of identifying profitable innovation opportunities and show that EMS can help to alleviate this. This implies that EMS implementation should have a positive effect on firms' propensity to carry out environmental innovations, leading to: Hypothesis 1: A higher level of EMS implementation by a firm results in a higher propensity of that firm to carry out an environmental process or product innovation.…”

This paper analyses the hypothesis that environmental management systems (EMS) and managerial activities to reduce negative environmental impacts which are not part of EMS have a positive influence on the probability of firms to carry out environmental innovations. Based on binary and multinomial discrete choice models, the relationship of a number of determinants on the occurrence of environmental innovations is studied using data collected during the "European Business Environment Barometer 2001/2002" survey in 9 European states. The study finds that environmental management systems are associated with process innovations. However, the study did not find that environmental management systems are associated with product innovations. For product innovations, mainly information of consumers and eco-labelling activities show a positive association. Market research on the potential of environmental innovations positively relates to both process and product innovations. Importantly, firm size is not found to have any effect on the probability of a firm carrying out environmental product or process innovations.

“…Companies need to develop knowledge links with a wide range of external parties to identify innovative and profitable solutions to environmental problems. Porter and van der Linde (1995) as well as Llerena (1999) argue that failure in identifying profitable innovation opportunities is one of the organizational barriers in innovating towards sustainability. They show that the existence of processes and procedures, such as Environmental Management System (EMS) implementation, can help firms to identify their environmental impact and to alleviate this failure.…”

“…Llerena (1999) [56] and Avadikyan (2001) [57] indicated that organizational learning and inter-organizational cooperation mechanisms were obviously related to the relationship between environmental management and innovation. Cai and Zhou (2014) [58] found that supply chain integration meant good communication, trust, and cooperation among supply chain members, which had a direct impact on the establishment of supply chain collaboration network and the inter-organizational learning.…”

The Influence of Environmental Management Practices and Supply Chain Integration on Technological Innovation Performance—Evidence from China’s Manufacturing Industry

How to effectively implement environmental management practices and supply chain integration to enhance technological innovation performance has become crucial in both research and practice. Based on resource-based view (RBV) theory, a theoretical model to determine the relationship between environmental management practices, supply chain integration, supply chain knowledge sharing, and technological innovation performance was proposed. Based on data collected from one hundred and twelve Chinese manufacturing enterprises, the empirical results show that environmental management practices have a significantly positive influence on technological innovation performance, and supply chain integration plays a moderating role on the relationship. In addition, the results indicate that supply chain integration is also a predictive variable of technological innovation performance and supply chain knowledge sharing. Our findings suggest that practitioners should couple environmental management practices with supply chain integration to improve technological innovation performance in addition to environmental performance, which has been substantiated in literature.
