Abstract

Supply chains with their intricate connections and multiple sustainability-related impacts have to be the focus of research in order to address and inform corporate sustainability requirements. Academic research is often not centred on providing practical and prescriptive guidance while sustainability initiatives in supply chain practice are hindered by a lack of structure and systematic processes. This study addresses these issues by outlining targeted support for supply chain scholars and stakeholders. On one hand, it provides guidance to researchers through an overview of sustainable supply chain management and research avenues related to decision support. On the other hand, it offers advice to practitioners on how to approach sustainability implementations through customised decision support models, mechanisms and functionalities. The decision support models presented are further supported through a practical example illustrating ongoing progression of sustainable supply chain management.
