The purpose of this study is to discuss cause and effect relationship between the influential factors and to identify of critical success factors (CSFs) for the Green Supply chain management (GSCM) implementation in Indian automobile industries. The combined fuzzy set theory and Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) method is used, to segment the critical factors. This study visualizes...
From the perspectives of the operational objectives of the green supply chain management and in consideration of its economic efficiency, social and environmental impact as well as its unique characteristics, this paper examines the pricing issues of the green supply chain for home appliances industry by using game theory. Considering the influences of the effective recycle behavior of the used home...
The objective of this paper is to predict the success possibility for implementation of Green Supply chain management enablers (GSCMEs). The combined fuzzy decision-making trail and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) and fuzzy multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) methodology is used to prioritize GSCMEs for supporting the green supply chain management (GSCM) implementation. The case study of automobile...
Green supply chain management (GSCM) has become a topic of interest for both business leaders and academic researchers alike. Over the last decade or so, the GSCM literature has grown considerably. Although sufficient literature exists about various aspects and facets of GSCM, earlier works and reviews have a limited focus and narrow perspective. This paper presents a comprehensive integrated view...
