One of the key technology focus areas in Green
Supply Chain Management that enables an organization to transition into a
sustainable organization is Supply Chain Network. Logistics Optimization
also goes hand in hand with this. It is true beyond doubt that a responsive
supply chain is also a responsible supply chain, it is more environmentally and
socially responsible. Not only is it plausible it is also more financially
viable resulting in a higher sustainment quotient as well as higher benefit
factor. Logistics Optimization and Supply Chain Network can lead to reductions
in empty and circuitous miles, and also increased warehouse capacity
utilization. Organizations need to look at the process and operational best
practices to improve upon their sustainment quotient. The higher the quotient,
the greener the supply chain and hence the greener the dividend pastures as
mentioned earlier.
