The importance of supply chain sustainability for business transformation
Supply chain sustainability is a holistic view and consideration of the environment and human impact of an organization’s product journey throughout the supply chain starting with sourcing raw materials, manufacturing or production, storage, delivery logistics and related transportation. Sustainable supply chain goals for an organization would amount to measuring environmental impact by minimizing energy usage, water consumption and waste production. Ultimately, the desired goal is to have a positive impact on the communities involved in end-to-end supply management operations of business.
