  2. Sustainability in Supply Chain Management Definitions: Supply chain management encompasses all activities associated with the flow and transformation of goods from the raw materials stage through the end user, as well as the associated information flows. (CSCPM) Sustainable supply chain management requires that sustainability criteria be met while maintaining competitiveness through meeting customer needs. (Seuring and Müller, 2008)

  5. Why Should Supply Chains Try to Be Sustainable? • Reduce cost and wastes • Manage risks • Create distinguishing (sellable) reputation • Reinforce shareholder value

  6. Issues affecting sustainability • Product design • Product returns • Length of product life cycle • Extension of product life cycle • End of life disposal • Packaging • Source reduction • Recycling • Material substitution • Waste disposal • Refurbishing • Repair • Remanufacturing
