Life Cycle Perspective for Improving Sustainable Supply Chain Management

Abstract:

This paper presents the supply chain management with life cycle approach and direction of improving sustainable supply chain management. The main aim of this paper is to implicate of life cycle perspective across the supply chain, to show importance of this concept. This paper provides an overview of the current status of sustainability assessment methodology and its applicability for extended supply chain. Life cycle approaches to supply chain and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for improving sustainable supply chain were developed in this paper.
