SUSTAINABLE OPERATIONS AND SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT

Sustainable Operations and Supply Chain Management addresses the most relevant topics of operations and supply chain management from the perspective of sustainability. The main focus is to provide a step-by-step guide for managerial decisions made along the product life cycle, following a path made up of the following steps: product design, sourcing, manufacturing, packaging and physical distribution, reverse logistics and recovery.

Guidance is provided on understanding traditional operations and supply chain management approaches, tools and techniques such as production planning, stock management, quality management and performance measurement, which can be adapted to achieve economic, environmental and social sustainability.

Key features:

• Repositions the main operations and supply chain management decisions developed in the perspective of the Life Cycle Analysis (Cradle-to-Cradle approach) and the Triple Bottom Line approach (economic, environmental and social sustainability)
• Covers sustainability and future trends, sustainable operations as a competitive factor as well as performance measurement and control
• Explores five main areas of operations and supply chain management; design for environment, procurement, manufacturing, packaging and distribution and reverse supply chain
• Provides a case study within each chapter to further the reader’s understanding along with numerous examples and real-world problems
