A fuzzy goal programming approach for selecting sustainable suppliers
TLDR
A two phase fuzzy goal programming approach integrating hyperbolic membership function is proposed to solve the complex supplier selection problem and achieves greater satisfaction level as compared to those achieved by traditional methods.Abstract:
Purpose
Due to the ever increasing concern toward sustainability, suppliers nowadays are evaluated on the basis of environmental performances The data on supplier’s performance are not always available in quantitative form and evaluating supplier on the basis of qualitative data is a challenging task The purpose of this paper is to develop a framework for the selection of suppliers by evaluating them on the basis of both quantitative and qualitative data
Design/methodology/approach
Literature on sustainability, green supply chain and lean practices related to supplier selection is critically reviewed Based on this, a two phase fuzzy goal programming approach integrating hyperbolic membership function is proposed to solve the complex supplier selection problem
Findings
Results obtained through the proposed approach are compared to the traditional models (Jadidi et al, 2014; Ozkok and Tiryaki, 2011; Zimmermann, 1978) of supplier selection and were found to be optimal as it achieves higher aspiration level
Practical implications
The proposed model is adaptive to solve real world problems of supplier selection as all criteria do not possess the same weights, so the managers can change the criteria and their weights according to their requirement
Originality/value
This paper provides the decision makers a robust framework to evaluate and select sustainable supplier based on both quantitative and qualitative data The results obtained through the proposed model achieve greater satisfaction level as compared to those achieved by traditional methodsread more

Supplier sustainability performance evaluation and selection: a framework and methodology
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a supplier sustainability performance evaluation framework for evaluating and selecting suppliers based on their sustainability performance, which uses fuzzy-Shannon entropy to determine the sustainability criteria weights and fuzzy-Inference system to prioritize suppliers from the individual sustainability dimensions perspective.

Connecting lean and green with sustainability towards a conceptual model
TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual model was proposed consisting of lean-green and sustainability (LGS) tools to achieve superior triple bottom line (TBL) performance, and the results demonstrated the capability of lean and green, especially their combination, to enhance sustainability outcomes.

TL;DR: A reverse-flow technique is described for the solution of a functional equation arising in connection with a decision process in which the termination time is defined implicitly by the condition that the process stops when the system under control enters a specified set of states in its state space.
