“…It is also defined as cooperation with supplier with the aim to develop environmental friendly products (Zhu et al, 2008). The existing literature has explained two main categories of green purchasing, which are selection and management of supplier and evaluation activities (Yee et al, 2021).…”

“…Previous studies indicated that collaboration with supplier for ecological conscious product or material can improve performance of firms (Qin et al, 2017). On the other hand, evaluation activities involve monitoring and assessing suppliers' environmental performance (ENTP) (Yee et al, 2021). Researches have stated that monitoring and assessment of supplier enable enterprises to move towards improved ecological performance (Kumar & Routroy, 2017).…”

“…In such a situation, moving towards green/environmental practices, monitoring business operations, and enhancing green capabilities (GC) can have a crucial role in managing the imbalance caused because of industrial activities. Stakeholder and regulatory bodies are also compelling firms to focus on ecological value creation and green practices (GnP) and enhance GC to eradicate externalities from their business operations (Foo et al, 2019;Yee et al, 2021). They also forced firms to provide products and services in response to social and ecological demands (Khan et al, 2021; Abbreviations: AVE, average variance extracted; CB-SEM, covariance-based structural equation modeling; CR, composite reliability; ECOP, economic performance; ENTP, environmental performance; GC, green capabilities; GDC, green digitalization capabilities; GIC, green innovation capabilities; GINC, green investment capability; GMC, green manufacturing capabilities; GnP, green practices; GPP, green purchasing practices; GSCP, green SC practices; RBV, resource-based view; SC, supply chain; SCOP, social performance; TBL, triple bottom line.…”

“…Researchers such as Yee et al (2021) have suggested exploring the role of various GC on GPP and sustainability. Therefore, this research is going to be held to respond to the call on investigating the role of various GC in GPP, which leads towards triple bottom line (TBL) ideology and will provide in-depth knowledge on how firms can enhance their sustainability performance through boosting their GC.…”

“…The research on green purchasing is newer in the developing countries, and most of the studies on this concept are held in developed countries (Yee et al, 2021). Very few studies have been conducted on the current model in the context of three emerging economies (Pakistan, China, and Sri Lanka).…”

Increasing businesses adverse operations and unsustainable practices are causing rise in environmental concerns. The adoption of green capabilities could be a promising step that can ease environmental problems and achieve green ideology in businesses. In the current study, green capabilities and green purchasing practices were critically theorized and a theoretical framework was developed to address the sustainability problems in supply chain. The data were collected from manufacturing firms located in emerging countries and covariance‐based structural equation modeling (CB‐SEM) was utilized for the testing of hypotheses. The findings indicate that green capabilities have a crucial role in adoption of green purchasing practices. Also, the results elucidate that green purchasing practices have a positive effect on economic and environmental performance while having insignificant effect on social performance. The current research work provides guidelines that help practitioners and academicians comprehend the structure and concept of green purchasing practices in industrialized manufacturing firms distinctly.

Hard dimensions evaluation in sustainable supply chain management for environmentally adaptive and mitigated adverse eco‐effect environmental policies

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In the oil and gas industry, adopting policies that can reduce the negative environmental effect is vital. Environmentally Sustainable Supply Chain Management (ESSCM) is an approach to carrying out Supply Chain Management (SCM) in an eco‐friendly manner and according to environmental requirements. There are different environmental policies that companies can apply based on their resource availability. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the impact of hard dimensions on Environmentally Adaptive (EA) and Mitigated Adverse Eco‐Effect (MAE) policies in the oil and gas industry. To rank the data, Bayesian Best‐Worst Method (BWM) and Ordinal Priority Approach (OPA) have been applied. Cause‐and‐effect relationships are then calculated by employing the Decision‐Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) technique. The results indicate that the ranking of the hard dimensions varies based on the companies' business policies and their new product/technology development projects. In other words, the findings of this research demonstrate that ‘innovation’ is the crucial dimension in companies that are focussed on developing eco‐friendly products while ‘technologies for cleaner production’ is the most important dimension in the companies attempting to reduce destructive consequences on the environment. In both types of the company policies, ‘lean manufacturing’, ‘total quality management’, and ‘institutional pressures’ are the key dimensions for a successful implementation of ESSCM while the least important dimensions include ‘supplier relationship management’, ‘green purchasing’, and ‘green logistics’. The findings of this research can assist the decision‐makers in the oil and gas sector in prioritising and identifying the interrelationship of the dimensions that significantly impact the ESSCM.

This research paper aims at examining the effect of three green capabilities, namely, green entrepreneurial orientation, green learning orientation, and green absorptive capacity, on triple bottom line firm performance under the natural resource‐based view (NRBV) lens. Data were collected through self‐administered surveys distributed among large firms in Egypt that have sustainability initiatives. A total of 211 responses were received, and data analysis was conducted using SMARTPLS 4.0. Results indicated an insignificant direct relationship between green entrepreneurial orientation and triple bottom line firm performance, yet results showed a positive indirect relationship between green entrepreneurial orientation and triple bottom line firm performance in the presence of green learning orientation as a mediator. Moreover, results indicated a positive indirect relationship between green entrepreneurial orientation and triple bottom line firm performance in the presence of green absorptive capacity as a mediator. Last but not the least, the relationship between green entrepreneurial orientation and triple bottom line firm performance was found to be positive when sequentially mediated by green learning orientation and green absorptive capacity.
