4. Assessment of logistics performance in sustainable supply chain: case from emerging economy
-
Muhittin Sagnak
Abstract
Nowadays, environmentally friendly operations became more critical; therefore, the sustainability concept has been evolved as new ways of thinking in supply chain operations. In that sense, the performance assessment of the sustainable supply chains needs a holistic structure covering the entire supply chain. Given the need to ensure supply chain sustainability, the performance assessment of logistics activities is critical. This chapter aims to measure the logistics performance of a furniture manufacturing company. The framework consists of three sustainable logistics performance key criteria; namely, sustainable procurement, sustainable distribution, and reverse logistics. First, the weights of the criteria were calculated by the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process. Weighted scoring method is used to compute the whole logistics performance. “Remanufacturing of materials,” “On-time delivery,” and “Using eco-labeled materials” were found as the most important factors for determining the logistics performance.
