“…Memari et al [40] used 30 sustainable criteria for supplier evaluation of automotive spare parts manufacturers. Zhang et al [41] used 15 sustainable criteria that can effectively improve enterprise supply chain performance. Once the sustainable criteria for supplier selection have been identified, the next step is evaluating the suppliers based on these criteria.…”

Sustainable supplier selection and order allocation (SSSOA) is paramount to sustainable supply chain management. It is a complex multi-dimensional decision-making process augmented with the triple bottom line of sustainability. This research presents a multi-phase decision framework to address a SSSOA problem for the multi-echelon renewable energy equipment (Solar PV Panels) supply chain. The framework comprises of fuzzy Multi-Criteria Decision-Making techniques augmented with fuzzy multi-objective mixed-integer non-linear programming mathematical model. The various economic, environmental, and social objectives were optimized for a multi-period, multi-modal transportation network of the supply chain. The results show that among the various sustainable criteria selected in this study, product cost, environmental management system, and health and safety rights of employees are the most important for decision-makers. The results of the mathematical model highlighted the impact of multimodal transportation on overall cost, time, and environmental impact for all periods. An analysis of results revealed that transfer cost and customer clearance cost contribute significantly towards overall cost. Furthermore, defect rate was also observed to play a critical role in supplier selection and order allocation.

“…[ 107 ] proposed a green supplier evaluation model under the uncertain environment and used a hesitant fuzzy TOPSIS method for the model. [ 108 ] considered different supplier evaluation criteria and ambiguities in criteria values while solving a sustainable supplier selection problem using DEMATEL and Fuzzy VIKOR methods. [ 7 ] proposed a model for evaluating the impact of green credit rating and its implications in SCM.…”

The need for environmental protection and involvement of ecological aspects in the business operations is forcing the organizations to re-examine their action plans and rebuild their supply chain activities. Many organizations are incorporating environmental rules and regulations in their everyday matters by focusing on green supplier selection. The proposed research paper develops a multi-objective interactive fuzzy programming model for the selection of suppliers. This model works on a business quartet of green appraisal score, cost, quality, and time. The model uses an environmental scale for different green parameters and all the suppliers are scored based on this scale. In this research model, Quality Function Deployment (QFD) methodology is integrated with the multi-objective interactive fuzzy programming. QFD technique is utilized to compute the weights of several green factors used for the selection of suppliers. The model uses a Fuzzy linguistic scale and a triangular membership function to link expert opinions along with their experience to solve the problem. Finally, the model is validated on a numerical case study of the textile industry for green supplier selection which achieves a 100% satisfaction for cost and time, 75% satisfaction for green appraisal score, and 93.95% for the quality. The proposed model assists the decision-makers in selecting green suppliers to improve the overall sustainability of their organizations.

The decision‐making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) is widely recognized as an effective way to identify the key elements of a complex system and establish a causal relationship between the criteria. To extend the effective use of the DEMATEL method in multicriteria group decision making problems, we propose some improvements for traditional DEMATEL. The direct‐influence matrix is a pairwise comparison matrix of the influence level between criteria, which is the basis of the DEMATEL method. Instead of utilizing crisp numbers to assess the level of direct‐influence, each expert provides evaluation with hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets (HFLTSs) based on an individual linguistic term set, that is, multigranular hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets. To obtain a reasonable and satisfying collective DIM, we propose the expert weights model based on the similarity and entropy of HFLTSs and introduce the consensus reach process that is an iterative and dynamic process of modifying experts’ opinions more similar or closer to obtain the satisfying group solution. Considering the increasing complexity of the decision environment and the intricate relationship between the criteria, the Otsu method is applied to determine the threshold value of the total‐influence matrix that is the sum of the direct influence and indirect influence and thus eliminate some unnecessary influence. Finally, the feasibility of the improved method is illustrated by an example of information warfare and analysis. Comparative results are presented to show the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed method.
