Abstract

The field of environmentally conscious design and manufacturing has focused primarily on internal functions and activities within an organization. However, external enterprise practices and relationships are of equal concern and often overlooked. External relationships serve as links in the development of a closed loop industrial ecosystem and are an integral part of supply chain management and environmental management strategy. This paper identifies emerging and potential research and development issues within supply chain management and the industrial ecosystem
