INTEGRATING ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY INTO SUPPLY CHAIN EVALUATION The LOGMAN Approach
Traditionally, supply chains have been evaluated according to economic criteria only. On this basis, supply chain best practices like outsourcing, offshoring and centralization of production or warehousing facilities have been developed. These best practices have usually led to an improvement of the economic performance measures but they often go hand in hand with an increase in transportation activity and the related carbon emissions. As such a development is not sustainable the traditional evaluation of supply chain strategies – based on the two criteria costs and customer service – has to be complemented by a third dimension that measures the environmental sustainability of a supply chain design. We present the results of a project funded by the European Commission which aims at developing sustainable logistics and manufacturing systems considering the there dimensions cost, customer service and carbon emissions. The results are derived from different research approaches, such as literature review, model-based analysis, case studies and expert interviews. Based on the scenarios and recommendations for policy-making will be derived.
