Abstract

Modern times, highly competitive, global operating environment, sustainability plays a very vital role. Changing climatic conditions and environmental deterioration has multi dimensional impact on every sphere of life forms and life form driving processes. Public hold on corporations responsible for ecological misconduct in their supply chains getting more firm with time. To counter the threat it’s a high time industries started taking initiatives for sustainability in their supply chains. In spite of that, suppliers often are unsuccessful to appropriately contribute in these initiatives. Hence, present paper justifies the supplier involvement in sustainable initiatives in supply chain management (SCM) with using differential evolution (DE) to select the efficient sustainable suppliers providing the maximum fulfillment for the sustainable criteria determined. Finally, two illustrative cases on automotive industry validate the application of the present approach.
