Green Procurement

Identification of Green Procurement Drivers and Their Interrelationship Using Fuzzy Tism and Micmac Analysis, the Law and other Social Sciences

The objective of the current study is to identify the leading green procurement drivers and identify the interrelationships using fuzzy total interpretive structural modeling and fuzzy MICMAC approach. For the purpose of this study, twenty-five drivers were identified from existing literature which influences green procurement practices and finally refined through experts' opinion. The final fuzzy model consists of fuzzy relationships between one to one criteria. The key drivers which emerged from Fuzzy TISM and MICMAC analyses are Government policy and Regulations, Total Quality Environmental management, Management Support, Management Review, Continuous education of employees, Cross functional team building, Organization Culture, and Green process and Technology. The green procurement model may assist supply chain practitioners in better decision making and successful implementation of green procurement programs.[1]
