Abstract

Radical changes in supply chains relations are critical in a world of environmental problems and limited resources. Presently, there is a partnershipPartnerships trend in the Danish construction industryConstruction industries, where attempts to reconfigure supply chains through strategic and collaborative arrangements are taking place. These partnershipsPartnerships are legitimized by their ability to capitalize on e.g. innovationsInnovations and repetition effects. However, it has been difficult to involve the supply chain actorsActors as strategic partners, which is problematic as a new resource economic marketizationMarketization is dependent on transformations of supply and demand throughout the entire supply chain. Drawing on institutional theoryInstitutional theory, we analyze and discuss the role of concurrent organizational dynamics, market mechanisms, and supranational regulations in legitimizing what is here labeled circular supplier partnershipsPartnerships (CSP) in the construction industryConstruction industries. We illustrate the possible underpinnings of CSPs and analyze the barriers to the development and legitimation processes of CSPs. In doing so, the paper substantiates CSPs as a possible driver for sustainable developmentSustainable developments by the consolidation of the 17 UN Sustainable DevelopmentSustainable developments Goals.
