This paper presents a multi-criteria group decision making model for effectively evaluating the performance of green supply chain management (GSCM) practices under uncertainty in an organization. The subjective assessments of individual decision makers are appropriately represented with the use of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers for better tackling the uncertainty existent. An algorithm is developed to assist individual decision makers in evaluating the performance of alternative GSCM practices across all the evaluation criteria. An example is presented for demonstrating the applicability of the proposed model in solving similar problems in the real-world setting.

Abstract The state of Chhattisgarh in India has a very large number of steel plants causing pollution in the region. The effect of this pollution exceeds the geographical territory of a unit, and goes much beyond it, so it becomes essential to find the reasons for the pollution and the enablers for the green supply chain management, which in turn will help in providing a cleaner environment. In this study Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) tools like Interpretive Structural Modeling and MICMAC analysis have been used.

Green supply chain management (GSCM) is a powerful tool to differentiate one company from the others and it can greatly influence the success of any plan. With increased awareness about corporate responsibility and the necessary to meet the terms of the environmental policy, green supply chain management (GSCM) is becoming increasingly important for Indian manufacturers. This study aims to explore different factors whose consideration in supply chains lead to reduced environmental load. Adoption of those factors reduce environmental footprint and improve green credentials. The questionnaire used to obtain opinion of managers at different level from industries. The best factor for environmental friendly supply chain determined using Decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method. DEMATEL is a multi criteria decision making tool which has ability to convert qualitative data into quantitative analysis. DEMATEL method used to study the influence of the most important factor and to find out the ranking of critical factors in supply chain of industry. The result of paper gives best factor and adoption of same influences green performance of supply chain. Key finding from this study tells green manufacturing and green logistics has highest influence in green supply chain practices.

Due to increasing importance of environmental issues, green practices became an important part of supply chain management. Today, various multi-criteria decision making techniques (MCDM) have been utilized for incorporation of green efforts in supply chain practices effectively. The purpose of this paper is examining the existing application areas of MCDM techniques in green supply chain management (GSCM) literature. Three questions will be investigated in relation to this issue: 1) Which MCDM techniques were prevalently applied in GSCM literature? 2) Which MCDM techniques have been overlooked in GSCM literature? 3) What are the major application areas of MCDM techniques in GSCM practices? To this aim, literature is reviewed between the period of 2008 and the first half of 2016. In total, ninety eight journal articles were examined. Consequently, this paper represents a detailed picture of application areas of MCDM techniques in GSCM practices and can definitely give a blueprint to researches in solving multiple objective problems effectively in the area of GSCM.

Due to the complexity of real-world multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) issues, analyzing different opinions from a group of decision makers needs to ensure appropriate decision making. The group decision-making methods collect preferences of the decision makers and present the best preferences using mathematical equations. The best–worst method (BWM) is one of the recently introduced MCDM methods that requires fewer pairwise comparisons to obtain the criteria weights than the other MCDM methods. In this research, we develop a novel approach to group decision-making problems based on the BWM called G-BWM. This approach helps us to analyze the preferences of decision makers to carry out democratic decision making using the BWM structure. In order to assess the applicability of the proposed methodology and represent its novelty, two numerical examples from the literature with the application to supply chain management (SCM) (i.e., green supplier selection and supplier development/segmentation) are examined and discussed. The results demonstrate the performance of our proposed G-BWM for group decision making in terms of a large number of decision makers, ease of use and achieving democratic decisions in the decision-making process.
