Environment SCM
Extended Supply Chain
Extends the one-way chain to construct a semi-closed loop that includes
product and packaging recycling, re-use, and/or remanufacturing
operations

Collecting used materials,


products, or components and
processing into recycled
products

Collecting a used product ,


assessing its condition, and
replacing broken, or obsolete
parts with refurbished parts
Global GSCM Survey
Global green supply chain survey 2008 Supply Chain Standards

Transportation & logistics- areas of focus

Reasons- Brand Image, Differentiation, Customer Satisfaction

Initiated By companies revenue over $1 billion (54%)

Go-Green Supply chain the next big thing

Asia Pacific the leaders

Indian Cos. Perspective


FE-EVI Green Business Survey 2008

213 companies from the FE 500 list

61% agreed - use of fuel efficient vehicles

7% - Plan to measure emissions


Steps Towards GSCM
Best possible path
1 gallon diesel -22.2 pounds CO2 emission
Optimize Routing & Incorporate flexibility offered by 3PL
Consolidation

GPS tracking and monitoring


Timely vehicle maintenance
Improve Fleet Driver training
Management

Delays due to port clearance


Poor duty payment coordination
Increase Global Reduced through efficient coordination and tracking(EASN)

Performance parameters
Classification Performance measure
(measured over product and process life cycle, except where indicated)

Resource use Total energy consumed


Total material consumed (e.g. water, timber, steel, etc.)
Product recovery Time required for product recovery
Remanufacturing Percent recyclable/re-useable materials (volume or weight) available at end of product life
Re-use Percent product volume or weight recovered and re-used
Recycling Purity of recyclable materials recovered
Percent recycled materials (weight or volume) used as input to manufacturing
Percent product disposed or incinerated
Fraction of packaging or containers recycled
Material recovery rate (MMR)
Ratio of virgin to recycled resources
Ratio of materials recycled to materials potentially recyclable
Materials productivity: economic output per unit of material input
Product characteristics Useful product operating life
Total mass of products produced
Waste emissions Total toxic or hazardous materials used
Total toxic or hazardous waste generated
Solid waste emissions
Percent product (weight or volume) disposed in landfills
Concentrations of hazardous materials in products and by-products
Estimated annual risk of adverse effects in humans and biota
Waste ratio: the ratio of wastes to all outputs
Economic Average life-cycle cost incurred by the manufacturer
Purchase and operating cost incurred by the consumer
Average total life-cycle cost savings associated with design improvements
Economic/emissions Eco-efficiency: adding the most value with least use of resources and the

Roadmap to GSCM
follow the
basic Identify processes
principles
established
by ISO 14000
Develop a performance measurement system

Measure the supply chain system & prioritize steps

Develop alternatives and select approach

Establish auditing and improvement procedures

Reversal of the supply chain


Designed from the customer backwards

Shared distribution networks


Collaborate - Reduce the surplus capacity

Virtual bazaars
companies with niche offerings come together to sell their wares

Return of local factories


Globally distributed factories- may not make commercial sense in future

Implementation of GSCM
strategies will require
fundamental changes in core
business processes such as
product development,
marketing and sales,
manufacturing, supply chain
management, and customer
service
