Boonsothonsatit, K., Kara, S., Ibbotson, S., 2012. A Generic Simulation Model for Green Supplier Selection. CIRP International Conference on Life Cycle Engineering, California, the United States, 23-25 May, pp.587-592
Abstract – Supplier selection is a critical part of supply chain network design. The best fitted suppliers are traditionally selected based on delivery time, quality and cost .This paper proposes a decision support system to take into account environmental as well as traditional objectives. The proposed model aims at selecting environmentally sustainable suppliers based on generic simulation model in order to minimize cost, lead time, and environmental impact as multi-objectives. An industry case is used in order to demonstrate the potential of the proposed model.
Keywords – Green supplier selection; Decision support system; Multi-objective decision making
