“…For instance, Hussain and Malik (2020) scrutinized the existing literature and determined the organizational enablers of CSC and tried to examine the relationship between CSC and its effects on environmental performance. Besides, Khan et al (2020) also addressed to the key enablers of supply chain for implementation of the circular initiatives. However, the main contribution of this study is to add smart technology perspectives to the CSC as a promoter towards achieving SDGs.…”

PurposeThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic created heavy pressure on firms, by increasing the challenges and disruptions that they have to deal with on being sustainable. For this purpose, it is aimed to reveal the role of the smart circular supply chain (SCSC) and its enablers towards achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for post-pandemic preparedness.Design/methodology/approachTotal interpretive structural modelling and Matrice d'Impacts Croises Multipication Applique' a un Classement (MICMAC) have been applied to analyse the SCSC enablers which are supported by the natural-based resource view in Turkey's food industry. In this context, industry experts working in the food supply chain (meat sector) and academics came together to interpret the result and discuss the enablers that the supply chain experienced during the pandemic for creating a realistic framework for post-pandemic preparedness.FindingsThe results of this study show that “governmental support” and “top management involvement” are the enablers that have the most driving power on other enablers, however, none of them depend on any other enablers.Originality/valueThe identification of the impact and role of enablers in achieving SDGs by combining smart and circular capabilities in the supply chain for the post-pandemic.

“…This has also been highlighted by various scholars. Khan et al (2020) concludes that top management commitment is vital for the adoption of circular concepts and practices. Another study by Zaidi et al (2021) explains that weak commitment by top management significantly hinders the implementation of sustainable public procurement.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify drivers and deterrents to sustainable procurement (SP) via field-level inquiry in the context of public sector higher education institutes in an emerging economy like Pakistan. Design/methodology/approach Unstructured interviews guided by the interview guide were conducted. The participants were selected via purposive sampling. A three-step process was carried out for data analysis. The first-order codes were generated from the views expressed by the informants. The descriptive codes (second-order categories) were developed, providing insights into the main factors. These codes helped to generate the third-order themes related to drivers and deterrents of SP. Findings The results reveal that interdepartmental cooperation is the most discussed driver, followed by government regulations. The most noted deterrents include a lack of interdepartmental cooperation, a lack of environmental laws and resistance to change. The participants have highlighted interdepartmental coordination as both a driver if available and a deterrent if not available. Social implications The identified drivers and deterrents shall help the managers and policymakers as a guide while transitioning from traditional procurement to SP. Originality/value With the increased focus of the higher education commission Pakistan on implementing green practices in higher educational institutes, this study proposes the understanding of a systematic and holistic view of SP by proposing a theoretical framework.

“…Due to these characteristics, the adoption of the CE is gaining momentum in industries. CE procedures capitalise for the organisation and environmental benefits (Khan et al, 2020). CE creates value in corporates' environmental Management through closed‐loop systems, clean production, product life cycle management, and reverse logistics (Kazancoglu et al, 2018).…”

Resource depletion is a concern for the global economy; many think that available resources on the planet will not be able to cater to an ever-growing population. Thus, economies are trying to become circular, leaving behind the linear tradition linear approach. In the circular economy (CE), physical resources and energy are made to loop back into the supply chain (SC) for a more extended period. Proper selection of suppliers is an essential criterion towards proper execution of the CE principle in SC. In this research, we have constructed a framework for evaluating the supplier concerning the CE implementation. Further, this research identifies the criterion and sub-criterion, which are pertinent for evaluating the supplier in CE context. Fuzzybased 'Criteria Importance Through Inter-Criteria Correlation (CRITIC)' method is justifiably applied to determine the aggregated weights of the criteria. Finally, 'Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS)' method is used to determine the suppliers' ranking in the Indian automobile industry. Six criteria and 24 sub-criteria are obtained as per recent literature and then inputs from experts. 'Environment' criterion came out as the most favourable criterion with a subjective weight of 0.230. The current research is one of the first such attempts to provide criteria for supplier selection in a CE environment. The developed framework would help organisations in implementing CE-based supplier selection. The identified criteria and sub-criteria would provide organisations with means to evaluate suppliers and help suppliers develop an effective and efficient CE based on the SC.
