“…Table 1 shows that previous studies have done firm-level analysis using institutional theory with the focus on adoption of EMS. Very few studies have investigated the CE performance in firms (Susanty, Tjahjono, & Sulistyani, 2020).…”

Institutional pressures and circular economy performance: The role of environmental management system and organizational flexibility in oil and gas sector

2020

The pressures to make business operations sustainable have been pushing organizations to adopt circular economy (CE) principles. With depleting fossil resources, the oil and gas (O&G) sector is pushed towards recycling limited resources available with it by leveraging CE principles. However, not many studies have been taken up how institutional pressures influence CE-targeted environmental and economic performances. Drawing on institutional theory, this study examines the moderated-mediation role of organization flexibility on the effects of institutional pressures on CE performance through environmental management systems (EMSs). Data are collected from 280 firms in Indian O&G sector using questionnaire-based survey method. The study reveals that organizations leverage EMS to achieve CE performance, and flexible organizations compared with rigid ones are more effective in dealing with coercive pressures by leveraging EMS. These insights may help policymakers to formulate regulatory framework judiciously that encourages firms to adopt EMS in making their operations environmentally sustainable.

“…In regard to Indonesian SMEs, Susanty et al (2020) argue that the government and policymakers should promote environmental-oriented supply chain cooperation practices for companies to uptake the CE principles. Moktadir et al (2018) find that government support and legislation influence Bangladeshi SMEs more than they do large-scale companies, because smaller entities need more aid from the government for the adequate implementation of circular practices.…”

“…Customers' demand for sustainable products and services is found to be an important driver behind EU SMEs' transition to motivate firms to redesign their line of production (Rizos et al, 2016). Susanty et al (2020) find the internal green supply of materials with customer collaboration is considered the most effective way to overcome barriers to transition entities' practices. Due to the absence of internal driving forces in developed countries, Fern andez-Viñ e et al (2010) suggest that market pressure is an enabler for SME's adoption of eco-efficient practices.…”

“…Once stakeholders come together to discuss potential obstacles standing in the way of making their activities circular, they would have a better understanding of what needs to be done. Thereby, Susanty et al (2020) claim that customer collaboration with an internal green supply chain is an effective combination for Indonesian SMEs to drive their circular transition. In China, Li and Zeng (2018) consider that the core practical approaches of realizing CE in Chinese SMEs are cleaner production and waste recycling in the supply chain.…”

As the world is facing numerous global ecological issues at once, the question arises of what will help mitigate and solve contemporary matters related to resource management or climate change without devastating the economies. Fortunately, the widespread application of the circular economy would help countries worldwide simultaneously ensure economic growth without significant environmental deterioration, essentially decoupling the two factors. While Hungary’s contribution to environmental problems is not significant in absolute terms, the economic sector’s circular transition could help the country decrease its impact in relative terms and pave the path for a green economy. Nevertheless, companies, especially SMEs, tend to struggle the most with the initial phases of the shift thus it is crucial to assess the factors that prevent and support their transition.

“…Production planning in a product oriented organization can be used as a way of checkmating resources wastage both in the inputs and the outputs from such producing company. This is evident in the case of wooden furniture industry in Indonesia as Susanty et al [5] investigated production planning model in the form of circular economy to solve the problems faced by the traditional wooden furniture industry in Indonesia which include inefficient use of raw materials and production process. In similar researches [6][7], found that the circular economy has positive impact on the waste management and led to efficient production processes in the specific production industries in which it was applied.…”

Based on the objectives set out for a Sawmill, a goal programming model was developed to simultaneously consider the production volumes goal, sales revenue goal, production cost goal, and machine utilization goal in order to develop its production plans for a horizon. The unwanted deviations from the goals served as the objective function to be optimized subject to the goals constraints, operational constraints, and non-negativity constraints. Three independent pre-emptive goal priority structures, GP1, GP2, and GP3, were considered with each prioritizing the objectives differently. The goal programming model was tested for its utility using data gathered from the mill to the three-goal priority structures. The results obtained indicated that, for GP1, the product volume goals for all products were achieved, and all but one, volume goals were achieved for both GP2 and GP3. The viability test showed that all priority structures used were profitable with GP1, GP2, and GP3 recording 1.099, 1.102, and 1.095 respectively. This indicates that the three priority structures considered are approximately profitable at the same level. The goal programming model for production planning offers the decision-maker a variety of options as to its application.
