“…Stakeholders affect the company's performance or a firm's actions. The business organisation are conditioned by the pressures and support that it receives and perceives from its stakeholders (González-Benito and González-Benito, 2006;Bouzon and Govindan, 2015). Finally, 'customers' environmental awareness and support (SC3)' is last in the list.…”

Abstract:In recent years, reverse logistics (RL) practices have been perceived a great recognition among researchers/practitioners. In this paper, we intend to identify and prioritise the critical factors (CFs) in implementing the RL practices, from the industrial viewpoint. There are 13 CFs crucial in accomplishing the RL practices were recognised on the basis of critical review Identify and prioritise the CFs in implementing the RL practices 43of literature and experts opinion. These finalised 13 CFs were then analysed to determine their priority by means of analytical hierarchy process (AHP) technique. The AHP technique assists in determining the relative importance of the identified RL implementation critical factors. The findings of the work may help managers to address the related issues in RL implementation. Inputs needed to carry out this research work are taken from an Indian automotive components manufacturing company. The results of the study may help researchers/practitioners to prioritise their efforts to implement RL practices in effective manner. In the end, sensitivity analysis is carried out to examine the proposed RL implementation CFs stability.Keywords: analytical hierarchy process; AHP; critical factors; CFs; reverse logistics; RL; supply chain management; SCM; sensitivity analysis.Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Luthra, S., Mangla, S.K., Kumar, S., Garg, D. and Haleem, A.

Abstract:The need for organizations to evaluate their environmental practices has been recently increasing. This fact has led to the development of many approaches to appraise such practices. In this paper, a novel decision model to evaluate company's environmental practices is proposed to improve traditional evaluation process in different facets. Firstly, different reviewers' collectives related to the company's activity are taken into account in the process to increase company internal efficiency and external legitimacy. Secondly, following the standard ISO 14031, two general categories of environmental performance indicators, management and operational, are considered. Thirdly, since the assumption of independence among environmental indicators is rarely verified in environmental context, an aggregation operator to bear in mind the relationship among such indicators in the evaluation results is proposed. Finally, this new model integrates quantitative and qualitative information with different scales using a multi-granular linguistic model that allows to adapt diverse evaluation scales according to appraisers' knowledge.

“…The Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) methodology has been used by various researchers to solve problems in different areas and to analyse interrelationships among criteria. The DEMATEL method has been applied in transport to evaluate criteria for maritime transport [10]; for vehicle fleet maintenance management [11]; for tourism marketing [12]; in supply chain management [13]. The DEMATEL approach has been applied in [14], where thirteen criteria are defined in order to study the influential criteria of carbon management in green supply chain.…”

Abstract. The present study defines criteria for evaluation of intermodal passenger and freight transportationintegrated railway and road transport (motorail trains and Ro-La trains). This type of transportation improves the efficiency of distribution in the supply chain. Two variants of criteria are studied in the paper -main and extended. The main criteria are divided into four groups: environmental, economic, technological and social. Eleven factors have been examined in the extended criteria: environmental, operating costs, transportation fares, infrastructure charges, duration of transportation, transportation from door to door, duration of transshipment operations, comfort, safety, reliability and stability. The method of multi-criteria analysis Decision Making Trial and the Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) method have been applied to analyze the importance and the relations among the criteria. The summarized results of both variants are similar. They show that the economic criteria have the greatest impact. Operating costs are the key factor among the extended variant of criteria. Other criteria of great importance are also duration of transportation and transport from door to door. The defined criteria can be applied for the evaluation, comparison and selection the transportation with different modes of transport.
