Abstract

The successful implementation of SCP is not possible without the involvement of certain critical factors. Therefore, identification of success factors (SFs) and their subsequent analysis is very important to understand. The goal of current work is to estimate the SFs associated with the adoption of SCP patterns. A total of 11 SFs were identified from the literature review. The listed factors were then analyzed using Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) at strategic level. DEMATEL strategy catches the interactive connections among the SFs and investigates them further on the ground of causal effect mapping. According to the research findings, the ‘government support and policies’ was attributed the highest significance among other factors in adopting SCP initiatives in the supply chain. This work can help industrial managers/practitioners to devise long-term decision strategies in efficiently managing SCP implementation.
