Abstract:

In today’s world in which global warming increases rapidly, several problems are emerging based on development of technology and industry. The environment should be protected and the nature should be damaged as less as possible in order to decrease these problems. Companies have important missions for the future of the world. For this reason, organizations started to implement green supply chain management which is nature friendly in every sense and increase productivity. Analytically evaluation of green supply chain management is not easy which is a challenge for companies. The aim of this study is to evaluate companies with regard to green supply chain management. Fuzzy-logic and fuzzy cognitive maps techniques were used for the evaluation. First, relationship map of factors that affects green supply chain management are constituted. Then, weights of the relationships between the factors are calculated using fuzzy cognitive maps techniques. The weights obtained are used as inputs in fuzzy cognitive maps algorithm and anticipated conditions in terms of green supply chain management are evaluated for three scenarios. Thus, several arguments were developed and the most important factors are determined for the success of green supply chain management
