Self-assessment for SMEs to address operational and environmental performance. : Combining SCOR, SustainableSCOR, and LCA methodologies in the food industry / Självvärdering av små och medelstora företags drift och miljöprestanda : Att kombinera SCOR, Sustainable SCOR och LCA-metoder i livsmedelsindustri

Rothschild, Franz January 2022 (has links)
As world population grows, so does the demand for resources exploitation and transformation. This, in turn, has an effect in the increase of the related wastes. Facing these challenges by designing and developing sustainable products and supply chains, processes, operations, and management is becoming increasingly important. From a business point of view, optimization of operational processes and resource management is expected to provide sustainability from economic and environmental perspectives. Often, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) do not have enough knowledge or resources to measure their performance. This thesis investigates which are the most common measurement performance systems to assess separate operational and environmental assessments seeking to develop a combined approach for SMEs. Literature review revealed that SCOR model from an operational perspective, and LCA from an environmental point of view, are the most accepted methodologies for performance measurement.  The aim of this research is to understand the complementariness, benefits, limitations, and challenges of a combined methodology that includes also SustainableSCOR. SustainableSCOR is an application of SCOR model that integrates the efficiency of resources and emissions management. A combined methodology is developed and explained with a qualitative case study for the food industry. As outcome, a structured and flexible approach is presented. This combined approach allows a company to measure the efficiency of its operations and resources managements and wastes throughout a product lifecycle in a sequential manner. Moreover, the company can understand the potential environmental impact of the operational and resources management from a cradle-to-gate approach, breaking down all operations involved into different levels of detail. Although some limitations arise, the combined methodology is of benefit for many types of supply chains and triggers further research to include Life Cycle Costing (LCC) and Social Life Cycle (S- LCA) for a more comprehensive analysis of the Triple Bottom Line (TBL). / I takt med att världens befolkning växer ökar också efterfrågan på resursexploatering och omvandling. Detta har i sin tur en effekt i ökningen av det relaterade avfallet. Att möta dessa utmaningar genom att designa och utveckla hållbara produkter och försörjningskedjor, processer, verksamhet och ledning blir allt viktigare. Ur affärsmässig synvinkel förväntas optimering av operativa processer och resurshantering ge hållbarhet ur ekonomiskt och miljömässigt perspektiv. Ofta har små och medelstora företag (SMF) inte tillräckligt med kunskap eller resurser för att mäta sina resultat. Denna avhandling undersöker vilka som är de vanligaste mätprestandasystemen för att bedöma separata drifts- och miljöbedömningar i syfte att utveckla ett kombinerat tillvägagångssätt för små och medelstora företag. Litteraturgenomgång visade att SCOR-modellen ur ett operativt perspektiv, och LCA ur miljösynpunkt, är de mest accepterade metoderna för prestationsmätning.  Syftet med denna forskning är att förstå komplementariteten, fördelarna, begränsningarna och utmaningarna med en kombinerad metodik som även inkluderar SustainableSCOR. SustainableSCOR är en tillämpning av SCOR-modellen som integrerar effektiviteten av resurser och utsläppshantering. En kombinerad metodik utvecklas och förklaras med en kvalitativ fallstudie för livsmedelsindustrin. Som resultat presenteras ett strukturerat och flexibelt förhållningssätt. Detta kombinerade tillvägagångssätt gör att ett företag kan mäta effektiviteten i sin verksamhet och resurshantering och slöseri under en produktlivscykel på ett sekventiellt sätt. Dessutom kan företaget förstå den potentiella miljöpåverkan av drift- och resurshantering från en vagga-till-grind- metod, som bryter ner alla inblandade verksamheter i olika detaljnivåer. Även om vissa begränsningar uppstår, är den kombinerade metoden till nytta för många typer av försörjningskedjor och utlöser ytterligare forskning för att inkludera livscykelkostnad (LCC) och Social Life Cycle (S-LCA) för en mer omfattande analys av den tredubbla bottenlinjen (TBL).

Greening community pharmaceutical supply chain in UK: a cross boundary approach

Xie, Y., Breen, Liz January 2012 (has links)
Yes / This research aims to design a green Pharmaceutical Supply Chain (PSC ) that reduces preventable pharmaceutical waste and effectively disposes of inevitable pharmaceutical waste. The main output of this study is the formulation of an integrated green PSC model involving all critical stakeholders, leading to improved environmental, economic and safety performance in medication management and delivery. The research is based on literature and on secondary resources. To green the PSC, every producer of waste is duty bound to facilitate the safe handling and disposal of waste. A Cross boundary Green PSC (XGPSC) approach is proposed to identify participants’ contribution to the PSC. Peripheral influences are also recognised from professional and regulatory bodies. This study focuses solely on community PSC in the UK where patients receive medication from local community pharmacies and thus may be limited. The proposed XGPSC approach also needs to be tested and validated in practice. It may also be difficult to transfer some of the environmental practices proposed in this research into practice. The environmental practices and actions proposed provide invaluable insight into various PSC activities, including purchasing, product design, prescription patterns and processes, medication use review, and customer relationship management. The proposed environmental actions encourage firm commitment from everyone to reduce, recycle or effectively dispose of pharmaceutical waste, with patients becoming stewards of medication rather than only consumers. A cross boundary approach is developed to green the PSC, and it encourages total involvement and collaboration from all participants in PSC.

A framework in green logistics for companies in South Africa

Van Rensburg, Suzanne Louise Jansen 02 1900 (has links)
Until recently, the concept of green logistics has been disregarded by various logistics and transport companies in South Africa. The study on which this dissertation is based explored the green logistics practices that these companies are currently implementing in terms of the key drivers, benefits and barriers. A quantitative research approach was followed, were a survey (Lime) served as the primary research instrument. A census was conducted among 160 companies in Gauteng. The results of the study revealed a significant difference between SMEs (<200) and large (200 and above) companies with regard to their importance rating on green logistics practices. To achieve the primary objective of the study, a framework in green logistics was drafted for SMEs and large companies in South Africa, which outlined practices and opportunities companies can implement in their own businesses to benefit from ‘going green’. The usefulness of the latter mentioned guidelines needs to be tested in future research. / Public Administration and Management / M.. Com. (Logistics Management)

綠色供應鏈協同運作策略之研究--以資訊製造業個案公司為例

謝成章 Unknown Date (has links)
在全球化的經濟蓬勃發展下,環保事件層出不窮,地球環境遭受重大破壞,各種環保議題引起國際矚目與熱烈討論。歐洲議會在2003年初公布了針對十項電機電子設備的兩個環保相關規範,分別是歐盟電機電子設備有害物質限制使用指令(RoHS)與歐盟電機電子設備廢棄物指令(WEEE),另外,歐盟能源使用產品生態化設計指令(EuP)也已在2005年8月11日公布,這些指令對相關產業的營運與發展將造成重大衝擊,其影響深遠供應鏈上下游成員無一倖免。 產業界為因應此一環保規範限制,將環境因素納入到傳統供應鏈管理當中,而形成了所謂「綠色供應鏈管理」的熱門議題。其主要差異乃是後者將生命週期思維融入產品設計、製造、使用與最終的廢棄回收處理的整個範疇。 本研究嘗試由資訊製造業的個案公司實際發展綠色供應鏈的過程中,以個案分析的方式收集其產品發展流程的各種資料,包括綠色設計、綠色採購、綠色供應商評鑑與稽核、綠色資訊平台建置等,並予以整理分析,建立個案公司的綠色供應鏈管理策略架構與協同運作模式。 本研究結果顯示綠色供應鏈管理策略的核心是「源頭管理」,源頭管理落實之後,加上其所衍生出來的綠色供應商評鑑與稽核、綠色產品管理系統、綠色資訊整合等各項活動,始能達到符合環保規範的目標,做到完整的風險控管,讓企業穩健發展。同時,本研究也顯示,建立協同設計機制及PDM資訊平台可以有效分析處理供應鏈上下成員間流通的資料,譬如,原物料、零組件等源頭綠色資料被有效地整合於綠色資訊平台,企業因應環保法規落實到資訊管理裡,營運風險因而獲得保障。 / Accompanying the vigorous economic development, the environment of the earth has been impacted tremendously. There are so many environmental issues that occurred in past decades turning into hot topics among nations. European Parliament published RoHS, and WEEE Directives in early 2003 that mandate ten categories of electric and electronic equipments to be restricted in the use of hazardous substances and wastes disposal respectively. Also, the setting of ecodesign requirement for Energy-Using Products newly announced in August of 2005. All the three mandatory EU Directives has definitely influenced significantly the foregoing development of the related industries. To react to the environmental regulations, the industries try to put environmental element into conventional Supply Chain Management, SCM. Thus, come out with Green SCM. The key differences are the latter mingling life cycle thought through out the whole scope of product life span. This research attempt to establish a collaborative structure and strategy for Green Supply Chain Management, by means of analyzing the information collected from the real developing process, including green design, green procurement, green suppliers’ appraisal, building up green information platform, of an information manufacturing firm. The research revealed that the core strategy of Green SCM is “Source Management”. Only if source management has fully implemented at the site of raw materials and component manufacturers, the environmental regulations can compliant thoroughly. Thus, the risk management is well controlled, so that the firm would operate soundly. Meanwhile, the research also showed that building up collaborative mechanism to link with PDM platform may process effectively the flowing data between the parties of supply chain. As a result, the restricted hazardous substances data of raw material and components are integrated into the green information platform and well managed. The operation risk of enterprise would be secured because of the entire implementation of information management for the environment regulations.

The implementation of green supply chain management: minimising environmental risk in the South African manganese and phosphate mining industry

Bvuma, Khomotso 12 1900 (has links)
M. Tech. (Logistics, Faculty of Management Sciences), Vaal University of Technology. / This study explored the implementation of green supply chain with regard to minimizing environmental risk in the South African manganese and phosphate mining industries. A qualitative research paradigm methodology was used. Theoretical assumptions were utilized. References by other researchers in the green supply chain and mining supply chain were also used to broaden the knowledge horizons for the study. A total number of twelve supply chain and environmental professionals from the key role players in the South African manganese and phosphate mining industries were interviewed and provided valuable input to the study. The study determined lack of information sharing between the role players in the supply chain that lead to the discovery of themes and sub–themes. The study identified seven main themes and eleven sub-themes as challenges in the implementation of green supply chain. Recommendations to address the challenges areoutlined and include the introduction of cleaner production practices by using cleaner technologies, inclusion of environmental aspects in the sourcing strategy, among others. The achievement of all these will ensure sustainable development. Originating from the study are research recommendations for the South African manganese and phosphate mining industries. The recommendations include further research to establish a green supply chain model as well as perception and expectations of policy makers in the industries.

Replenishment policies for deteriorating items under uncertain conditions by considering green criteria / Politiques de réapprovisionnement pour les produits périssable dans des conditions incertaines en considérant des critères environnementaux

Sazvar, Zeinab 28 May 2013 (has links)
Le développement et l'application de modèles de réapprovisionnement d’articles périssables est l'une des principales préoccupations des experts en la matière, le nombre et la variété des produits périssables augmentant de façon spectaculaire. L'une des lacunes majeures dans la littérature pour la gestion des produits périssables est que les chercheurs n'ont pas accordé suffisamment d'attention à deux aspects importants dans leurs modèles: i) les conditions stochastiques ; en particulier le délai stochastique est presque négligé car rendant les défis mathématiques plus compliqués ; ii) l'élaboration de politiques innovantes de réapprovisionnement prenant en compte les critères environnementaux ; en particulier la minimisation des émissions de CO2 comme second objectif dans un contexte de modélisation multi-objectif qui est tout à fait nouvelle. Dans cette thèse, nous étudions les politiques de réapprovisionnement pour les produits périssables sous conditions stochastiques sous forme de trois problématiques différentes. Dans la première, nous développons un modèle de réapprovisionnement à révision continue (r, Q) pour un détaillant qui offre un produit périssable en prenant en compte : un horizon de planification infini, un délai d’approvisionnement stochastique, un taux de demande constante et la livraison tardive (backorder). Pour modéliser le processus de détérioration, un coût de possession de stock non linéaire est défini. La prise en considération du délai stochastique et d'un coût de possession de stock non linéaire rend le modèle mathématique plus complexe. Nous avons donc adapté le modèle proposé pour une fonction de distribution uniforme afin de résoudre de façon optimale ce problème par une approche exacte. Pour le second problème, nous étudions la stratégie de mutualisation des risques de délai de livraison par la passation de commandes de réapprovisionnement fractionnées par lots entre plusieurs fournisseurs simultanément pour un détaillant vendant un produit périssable. Enfin, dans le dernier problème, nous prenons en considération les coûts de stockage et de transport, ainsi que les impacts sur l'environnement, dans une chaîne d'approvisionnement centralisée sous condition de demande incertaine et pénurie partielle (partial backordered). Pour faire face à l'incertitude de la demande, est adoptée une approche de programmation stochastique en deux étapes. Par la suite, en tenant compte de la capacité de transport de véhicules, nous développons un modèle mathématique de programmation mixte en nombres entiers. De cette façon, les meilleurs véhicules de transport et les politiques de réapprovisionnement sont déterminés par la recherche d'un équilibre entre les critères financiers et environnementaux. Un exemple numérique du monde réel est également présenté pour démontrer l'applicabilité et l'efficacité du modèle proposé. / The development and application of inventory models for deteriorating items is one of the main concerns of the experts in the domain, since the number and variety of deteriorating products are dramatically increasing. One of the major gaps in the deteriorating inventories literature is that researchers have not paid enough attention to two important features in their models: i) Considering stochastic conditions; especially stochastic lead time is almost overlooked since makes the mathematical challenges complicated, ii) designing innovative inventory policies by taking into account the environmental issues and particularly the CO2 emission as a new objective in a multi-objective framework that is quite new. In this thesis, we study replenishment policy for deteriorating products under stochastic conditions in form of three different problem areas. In the first one, we develop a continuous (r,Q) inventory model for a retailer that offers a deteriorating product by considering infinite planning horizon, stochastic lead time, constant demand rate and backordered shortages. For modeling the deterioration process, a non-linear holding cost is defined. Taking into consideration the stochastic lead time as well as a non-linear holding cost makes the mathematical model more complex. We therefore customize the proposed model for a uniform distribution function that could be tractable to solve optimally by an exact approach. In second problem, we study the strategy of pooling lead time risks by splitting replenishment orders among multiple suppliers simultaneously for a retailer that sells a deteriorating product. Finally, in the last problem, we consider inventory and transportation costs, as well as the environmental impacts in a centralized supply chain by taking into account uncertain demand and partial backordered shortages. In order to deal with demand uncertainty, a two stage stochastic programming approach is taken. Then, by considering transportation vehicles capacity, we develop a mixed integer mathematical model. In this way, the best transportation vehicles and replenishment policy are determined by finding a balance between financial and environmental criteria. A numerical example from the real world is also presented to show the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed model.

No. of bitstreams: 1 61080100066.pdf: 1081236 bytes, checksum: b3a0ff32bf2aa84a9c349bd4092963c9 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2009-12-17T00:00:00Z / Ao longo da década de 1990, uma grande sensibilização com as mudanças climáticas, a depreciação de recursos naturais e a geração de desperdícios redirecionaram as questões ambientais da periferia à linha de frente da gestão empresarial. Decorrente desta sensibilização é possível citar algumas das práticas mais utilizadas pelas indústrias no processo de esverdeamento de sua produção: Produção Mais Limpa, Produção Enxuta, Eco-Eficiência e Gestão da Qualidade Total Ambiental. Neste trabalho pretende-se focar a Produção Mais Limpa (P+L) no processo de esverdeamento da produção da cadeia que será objeto de estudo: a cadeia de suprimentos de artefatos de couro, devido à grande geração de resíduos (sólidos, líquidos e gasosos) que ocorrem durante o processo de transformação do couro. Tal pesquisa se justifica pelo fato da não existência de estudos que propiciem uma identificação do estágio de adoção das práticas de P+L nesta cadeia e a contribuição que os resultados relativos ao estudo da P+L podem trazer aos grupos de interesse (parceiros, sociedade, pesquisadores, entre outros). Além disso, grande parte das pesquisas se propõe a estudar a indústria calçadista apenas e não os artefatos de couro como integrantes dos processos da cadeia do couro. A partir da identificação desses estágios, por meio do estudo de caso de seis empresas desse setor, ações de melhoria podem ser propostas para que se alcancem estágios mais avançados de práticas de P+L ou que, no mínimo, se mantenha o estágio já atingido, caso a empresa se encontre em um estágio avançado de práticas de P+L, para uma efetiva preservação ambiental e redução de desperdícios, beneficiando o meio ambiente e a sociedade assim como proporcionando o desenvolvimento econômico empresarial com a redução de desperdícios. Os resultados mostram que dentre as práticas de P+L mais utilizadas por esta cadeia estão: a reutilização e conseqüente redução no consumo de água limpa através de métodos de tratamento de efluentes, a redução do consumo de energia elétrica e a limpeza e sinalização de cada etapa dos processos industriais. O investimento de esforços na formação do Ecotime e o investimento financeiro na capacitação e treinamento constante desta equipe constituíram a base para o desenvolvimento de novas oportunidades de P+L. / Throughout the 1990s, a great awareness about climate change, the depreciation of natural resources and generating waste redirected environmental issues from the periphery to the forefront of business management. Due to this awareness is possible to mention some of the practices used by most industries in the greening of production: Cleaner Production, Lean Production, Eco-Efficiency and Total Quality Management Environment. This paper aims to focus on Cleaner Production (CP) in the process of greening the production chain which is an object of study: the supply chain of leather, due to the generation of waste (solid, liquid and gaseous) that occur during the processing of leather. Such research is justified by the non-existence of studies that provide an identification of the stage of adoption practices of CP in the chain and the contribution that the results for the study of CP can bring interest groups (partners, society, researchers, among others). Moreover, much of the research aims to study the footwear industry and not just the leathergoods as integral to the process the leather. By identifying these stages, through a case study of six companies in this sector, improvement actions can be proposed for reaching the advanced stages of practice CP or at least maintain the stage already reached If a company is in an advanced stage of practice CP, for effective environmental conservation and waste reduction, benefiting the environment and society as well as providing economic development business by reducing waste. The results show that among the practices of CP most commonly used by this chain are: the reuse and consequent reduction in the consumption of clean water by methods of effluent treatment, the reduction of energy consumption, cleaning and signs of each stage industrial processes. The investment of effort in training Ecotime and financial investment in training and constant training of this team formed the basis for the development of new opportunities for CP.

Multi-objective optimization for Green Supply Chain Management and Design : Application to the orange juice agrofood cluster / Optimisation multi-objectif pour la gestion et la conception d'une chaine logistique verte : Application au cas de la filière agroalimentaire du jus d'orange

Miranda Ackerman, Marco Augusto 05 November 2015 (has links)
La gestion de la chaîne logistique a gagné en maturité depuis l’extension de son champ d’application qui portait sur des problématiques opérationnelles et économiques s’est élargi à des questions environnementales et sociales auxquelles sont confrontées les organisations industrielles actuelles. L’addition du terme «vert» aux activités de la chaîne logistique vise à intégrer une conscience écologique dans tous les processus de la chaîne d'approvisionnement. Le but de ce travail est de développer un cadre méthodologique pour traiter la gestion de la chaîne logistique verte (GrSCM) basée sur une approche d'optimisation multi-objectif, en se focalisant sur la conception, la planification et les opérations de la chaîne agroalimentaire, à travers la mise en oeuvre des principes de gestion et de logistique de la chaîne d'approvisionnement verte. L'étude de cas retenu est la filière du jus d'orange. L'objectif du travail consiste en la minimisation de l'impact environnemental et la maximisation de la rentabilité économique pour des catégories de produits sélectionnés. Ce travail se concentre sur l'application de la GrSCM à deux questions stratégiques fondamentales visant les chaînes d'approvisionnement agroalimentaire. La première est liée au problème de la sélection des fournisseurs en produits « verts » (GSS) pour les systèmes de production agricole et à leur intégration dans le réseau globalisé de la chaîne d'approvisionnement. Le second se concentre sur la conception globale du réseau de la chaîne logistique verte (GSCND). Ces deux sujets complémentaires sont finalement intégrés afin d'évaluer et exploiter les caractéristiques des chaînes d'approvisionnement agro-alimentaire en vue du développement d’un éco-label. La méthodologie est basée sur le couplage entre analyse du cycle de vie (ACV), optimisation multi-objectifs par algorithmes génétiques et technique d’aide à la décision multicritère (de type TOPSIS). L’approche est illustrée et validée par le développement et l'analyse d'une étude de cas de la chaîne logistique de jus d'orange, modélisée comme une chaîne logistique verte (GrSC) à trois échelons composés de la production d’oranges, de leur transformation en jus, puis de leur distribution, chaque échelon étant modélisé de façon plus fine en sous-composants. D’un point de vue méthodologique, le travail a démontré l’intérêt du cadre de modélisation et d’optimisation de GrSC dans le contexte des chaînes d'approvisionnement, notamment pour le développement d’un éco-label dans le domaine de l’agro-alimentaire. Il peut aider les décideurs pour gérer la complexité inhérente aux décisions de conception de la chaîne d'approvisionnement agroalimentaire, induite par la nature multi-objectifs multi-acteurs multi-périodes du problème, empêchant ainsi une prise de décision empirique et segmentée. D’un point de vue expérimental, sous les hypothèses utilisées dans l'étude de cas, les résultats du travail soulignent que si l’on restreint l’éco-label "bio" à l'aspect agricole, seule une faible, voire aucune amélioration sur la performance environnementale de la chaîne d'approvisionnement n’est atteinte. La prise en compte des critères environnementaux pertinents sur l’ensemble du cycle de vie s’avère être une meilleure option pour les stratégies publiques et privées afin de tendre vers des chaînes agro-alimentaires plus durables. / Supply chain and operations management has matured from a field that addressed only operational and economic concerns to one that comprehensively considers the broader environmental and social issues that face industrial organizations of today. Adding the term “green” to supply chain activities seeks to incorporate environmentally conscious thinking in all processes in the supply chain. The aim of this work is to develop a Green Supply Chain (GrSC) framework based on a multi-objective optimization approach, with specific emphasis on agrofood supply chain design, planning and operations through the implementation of appropriate green supply chain management and logistics principles. The case study is the orange juice cluster. The research objective is the minimization of the environmental burden and the maximization of economic profitability of the selected product categories. This work focuses on the application of GrSCM to two fundamental strategic issues targeting agro food supply chains. The former is related to the Green Supplier Selection (GSS) problem devoted to the farming production systems and the way they are integrated into the global supply chain network. The latter focuses on the global Green Supply Chain Network Design (GSCND) as a whole. These two complementary and ultimately integrated strategic topics are framed in order to evaluate and exploit the unique characteristics of agro food supply chains in relation to eco-labeling. The methodology is based on the use of Life Cycle Assessment, Multi-objective Optimization via Genetic Algorithms and Multiple-criteria Decision Making tools (TOPSIS type). The approach is illustrated and validated through the development and analysis of an Orange Juice Supply Chain case study modelled as a three echelon GrSC composed of the supplier, manufacturing and market levels that in turn are decomposed into more detailed subcomponents. Methodologically, the work has shown the development of the modelling and optimization GrSCM framework is useful in the context of eco-labeled agro food supply chain and feasible in particular for the orange juice cluster. The proposed framework can help decision makers handle the complexity that characterizes agro food supply chain design decision and that is brought on by the multi-objective and multi-period nature of the problem as well as by the multiple stakeholders, thus preventing to make the decision in a segmented empirical manner. Experimentally, under the assumptions used in the case study, the work highlights that by focusing only on the “organic” eco-label to improve the agricultural aspect, low to no improvement on overall supply chain environmental performance is reached in relative terms. In contrast, the environmental criteria resulting from a full lifecycle approach is a better option for future public and private policies to reach more sustainable agro food supply chains.
