Abstract :
Various drivers push companies to implement Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) practices. However, implementing GSCM practices is always subject to a number of interacting factors (attributes, characteristics and practices) that characterize the companys organization and its relationships with other supply chain partners. This study contributes to understanding how such factors taken together interact as a system and influence the implementation of GSCM practices. We first identify a set of 19 influential factors on the implementation of GSCM practices. Then, we build a model that exhibits and structures the influence relationships between these factors, using the Interpretative Structural Modeling (ISM) method and the MICMAC analysis. The results of our study show that some organizational and inter-organizational factors have particularly high driving power and influence potential on the other factors that affect the implementation of GSCM practices by a company. Among these highly influential factors, we mention especially the relations with supply chain partners characterized by dependence, trust and/or long-term engagements, in addition to top management commitment and good management practices, such as the application of quality management and information and knowledge sharing.
