Title Modelling Sustainable Procurement: A Case of Indian Manufacturing Firm
Year 2018
Published
Abstract In today's dynamic and challenging environment, business decisions are driven not only by cost but also by environmental legislations. In manufacturing industries, procurement is a crucial operation responsible for cost, quality and delivery of final product. Unlike purchasing, procurement involves strategic planning of lot-sizes to be ordered from suppliers and carriers. The paper proposes a sustainable procurement model (SPM) integrating lot-sizing, supplier and carrier selection in a cap-and-trade environment, optimizing cost and carbon emissions. The model is illustrated with the help of a case study of an Indian manufacturing firm procuring raw materials from multiple suppliers using multiple carriers.
