This dissertation focuses on understanding the impact of systems thinking on supply chain management. The first essay presents a systematic literature review, examining the current state of systems thinking research within the context of supply chain management. It explores the similarities and differences in various studies, identifies research gaps, and outlines future opportunities in the field. The second essay investigates the current state of systems thinking in individuals working in supply chains at different stages of their careers. This is achieved through the use of a specially created game called the systems thinking game. The game is designed to assess and enhance systems thinking skills among supply chain professionals. The findings from this study provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of interactive learning tools in developing systems thinking abilities and suggest ways to incorporate these tools into professional development programs. The third essay explores the holistic management of supply chain complexity, emphasizing its critical impact on business performance, including lead times, costs, and operational efficiencies. It highlights the importance of a comprehensive approach to foster innovation and adaptability in response to rapid market changes and technological advancements. By addressing detail and dynamic complexities and leveraging advanced information systems, the essay demonstrates how holistic management and technical skills can enhance decision-making processes, leading to improved supply chain performance and resilience. Overall, this dissertation aims to bridge the gap between theoretical frameworks and practical applications of systems thinking in supply chain management, providing a holistic approach to understanding and managing supply chain complexities.

Introduktion- Den miljömässiga varianten av Supply chain management, även kallad Green supply chain management, har som mål att minimera eller eliminera negativ miljöpåverkan. Onödiga transporter innebär negativ miljöpåverkan. Trots transporters påverkan på miljön, finns lite forskning om samband mellan transporter och Green supply chain management. Syftet med studien är därför att utforma en strategi för att uppnå Green supply chain management och minska på onödiga transporter med fokus på osäkerhet, variation och transparens.   Metod- För att möjliggöra ett besvarande av syfte har en fallstudie bedrivits med hjälp av litteratur och ett fallföretag.   Resultat, analys, diskussion och slutsats - Fallföretaget påverkas negativt av osäkerhet, variation och har även brist på transparens i försörjningskedjan. Onödiga transporter genom återkallningar skapas på grund av kvalitetsbristerskapar hinder för en effektiv supply chain management strategi. Ett systematiskt tillvägagångssätt genom PDCA kan hjälpa fallföretaget att skapa en stabil grund och uppnå Green supply chain management. Det är viktigt att Plan-Do-Check-Act bedrivs med god kommunikation för att skapa transparens, hindra osäkerhet och variation. Green supply chain management kan uppnås genom en kombination av ISO 9001, ISO 14001 och Lean. Dessa delar ska bedrivas med Plan-Do-Check-Act för att minska på onödiga transporter. / Introduction- The environmental variant of Supply Chain Management, also known as the Green supply chain management, aims to minimize or eliminate negative environmental impacts.  Unnecessary transports are a negative environmental aspect and means negative environmental impact. Although transports affect the environment, there is little research on the relationship between transport and Green supply chain management. The purpose of the study is therefore to design a strategy for achieving Green supply chain management and reduce unnecessary transport with a focus on uncertainty, variability and transparency. Method- To enable the answering of purpose, a case study conducted with the help of literature and a case company. Results- The case company is negatively affected by uncertainty, variety, and also by a lack of transparency in the supply chain. Unnecessary transportations through recalls are created because of quality defects. This creates obstacles for a supply chain management strategy to be more effective. A systematic approach by Plan-Do-Check-Act can help the case company to create a stable basis and achieve green supply chain management. It is necessary to conduct Plan-Do-Check-Act with good communication in order to create transparency, prevent uncertainty and variation. Green supply chain management can be achieved through a combination of ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and Lean. These parts should be conducted with PDCA, which can reduce unnecessary transportation.
