“…To achieve the final ranking of the selected suppliers, multi-objective optimization by ratio analysis (MULTIMOORA) and intuitionistic linguistic rough MULTIMOORA methods were developed that considered both the subordinated utility values and ranks (Liu et al, 2021). In a study involving uncertainty in the supplier selection process fuzzy AHP was used to calculate the criteria weights and interval VIseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) was used in the ranking of suppliers (Zandkarimkhani et al, 2022). An innovative method based on spherical fuzzy AHP and CoCoSo was employed in the supplier selection in the chemical industry (Wang et al, 2022).…”

PurposeWith increasing pressure from the government and private sectors to be more environmentally and socially responsible, sustainable supplier selection has gained enormous currency in recent times. Particularly, in the case of the construction industry, owing to a large amount of industrial wastage generated and extreme workplace conditions, it is even more important to devise strategies to mitigate the harmful consequences. The most crucial step in this regard is the selection of sustainable suppliers that acquire a pivotal position in the supply chain ecosystem. This study aims to identify indicators for three criteria such as economic, environmental and social, and prioritize them according to their level of significance for sustainable supplier selection in the Indian construction industry.Design/methodology/approachIn this study, the best-worst method (BWM) is presented for sustainable supplier selection in Indian construction organizations. Total of 27 indicators was identified for the three criteria of the triple bottom line (TBL) approach namely economic, environmental and social. Using BWM, the most important criterion was found and subsequently, all the indicators under each criterion were ranked in order of importance.FindingsThe analysis revealed that the environmental criterion was the most important criteria in the sustainable supplier selection followed by the economic criteria. The indicators that were the most influential in the effective selection process were “Usage of recyclable raw materials for production”, “Adoption of clean and green technologies”, “Waste management” and “Periodical environmental audits” under the environmental criteria; “Efficiency”, “Cost” and “Flexibility and Scalability” from the economic criteria; and “Safety programs” and “Information disclosure” in the social criteria.Research limitations/implicationsThe study provides a reference framework for the selection of sustainable suppliers in construction organizations. The findings can also be used for the assessment of suppliers' performance in the supply chains.Originality/valueThe novelty of this work lies in its attempt to model the performance of suppliers in the Indian construction supply chains.

“…Innovations in technology, such as blockchain and AI, have also played a pivotal role in enhancing supplier selection processes by providing greater transparency and traceability [97]. Furthermore, global events like the COVID-19 pandemic have highlighted the importance of supply chain resilience and the need to integrate sustainability into risk management strategies [98]. In addition, the historical perspective offered in this study aligns seamlessly with recent calls from scholars and industry experts for more longitudinal and context-sensitive research in the field of supply chain management.…”

Background: The primary objective of this study was to examine the advancements in sustainable supplier selection through multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) from the years 2013 to 2022. In the recent past, researchers have carried out a significant amount of research in this field over the course of several years; Methods: a total of 121 scientific publications sourced from the Scopus database were chosen for analysis, employing the bibliometric method and graphical visualization of the VOS viewer application to visually analyze and map research networks and collaboration patterns, aiding in the evaluation of scientific impact and knowledge dissemination; Results: the findings of this study indicate that the research trend in sustainable supplier selection through MCDM witnessed its most significant growth in the year 2019. Researchers predominantly disseminated their scientific findings through articles, accounting for 81% of the publications, followed by conference papers at 14%, and book chapters at 2.5%; Conclusions: the primary area of focus in these studies pertains to decision-making processes involved in sustainable supplier selection. The implications and theoretical contributions derived from this research, coupled with the latest advancements, serve as a foundation for further exploration and development of sustainable supplier selection research through MCDM.
