Sustainable Global Supply Chains : Digitalization and Best Practice (9781789662641)

Sustainability can create greater efficiency and cost savings in the supply chain. Supply chains, which are more complex and global than ever before, are full of both risks and opportunities. The risks range from inconsistent or poor quality to supply disruptions to health and safety concerns to corruption. Relevant environmental issues typically include waste and emissions, but may extend to recycling and product design. Firms face pressure to adopt sustainable supply chain practices from a number of stakeholders and motivations typically come from one or more of four sources: customers, compliance, costs, competitive advantage.

Sustainable Global Supply Chains presents in depth research from leading academics from sixteen different universities, on how to make supply chains sustainable, with a focus on new technologies and digitization. With the research covering topics such as KPIs in production and supply chains, the role of standards, block chain technology and algebraic models, this comprehensive book presents real world issues, problems in implementing sustainability in the supply chain and examples of best practice.
