Best practice is to number them based on the chapter (Table 2.1, Table 2.2 while in Chapter 2).
International Journal of Translational Medicine (IJTM). From a sustainable and supply chain
management point of view, we will review papers considering two or three bottom lines, and then we
will propose a framework of SSSCM. 3.1. Sustainable Supply Chain Management: Environment and
Economy Point of View Since the 1980s, global warming has brought attention to environmental
problems, which enhanced the concept of sustainable development. Figure 1 represents the review
process and its results per stage. 2.1. Planning Stage The planning stage comprised three steps: (i)
exploring the literature on applications of MCDM in decision problems concerning Sustainable
Development (SD) issues, particularly within the 2030 Agenda framework; (ii) selecting panel
members for the review process; and (iii) identifying research gaps and defining review scope and
objectives. The PRI is World’s Leading Proponent of Responsible Investment (2018, April). Jantan,

University Reaz, Md. Articles reviewed concerning ”SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and
Infrastructure”. DEMATEL is used in more than 70% of the cases in which the ANP method is also
employed. Author Contributions G.T. and G.D.S. conceptualized the idea. G.T. and G.D.S. worked
on the methodology of the paper. G.T. used the required software for the analysis. G.T. and G.D.S.
validated the study. Pandey et al. (2019) simulated cooperation and competition among multiple
ridesharing companies in a real-time on-demand setting. Wu and Pagell 2011 Qualitative Journal of
Operations Management M In the uncertain case, how organization make supply chain decisions
when balancing short-term gains and long-term environmental sustainability. Note: More than one
methodological MCDM approach can be adopted in one single article so that the sum of the
methodological categories exceeds 143 articles. Regarding the environment and economy, many
papers have discussed SSSCM. In this section, we will analyze those chosen papers. Backward
citation search was not considered in this case since the articles regarding the 2030 Agenda
framework began to be published only in 2016, according to the Scopus database’s search results.
Hemp has been in use to produce biobased natural fibre insulation in the UK in recent years. They
took both ride details and driver location into account and assumed that drivers and customers
maximize utility. The environment and society are the two cornerstones of the sustainable supply
chain, and the economy is built on these two cornerstones. The challenge is to draw on the talent and
technology roadmaps in the DOE National Labs and elsewhere to speed up the cycles of learning. A
Framework of Sustainable Service Supply Chain Management: A Literature Review and Research
Agenda. These three responsibilities constitute the bottom line of enterprise development. Until
recently, cadmium telluride was gaining market share in the United States. Those green supply chain
activities are of great importance to sustainable development. Regarding the environment and
economy, many papers have discussed SSSCM. The multi-objective decision-making methods (e.g.,
DEA and GP) are also known as continuous methods or mathematical programming methods. Only
four SDGs had no work identified in the review process (i.e., SDG1, SDG 5, SDG 16, and SDG 17
(see Appendix A ). Based on this assumption, 38 articles adopted this approach associated with
MCDM applications addressed to decision problems within the 2030 Agenda framework. 3.5.
Contexts of MCDM Applications Figure 5 shows the distribution of the reviewed articles according
to the contexts of MCDM applications. The literature review acknowledges the work of previous

Science during 1989 and 2018 (so far) are reviewed for the purpose of this research. Green bonds
are gaining increasing popularity between environmentally responsible investors, as well as investors
who “simply” attempt to benefit from portfolio diversification, including green issuances, that are
close to other fixed bonds. During the different development periods of the economy and society,
the triple bottom line will also change dynamically, and its restriction to the service supply chain
changes, which will lead to changes in the ternary relationship. They developed an insight into
various MCDM techniques, discussed progress made by considering renewable energy applications
over MCDM methods and prospects in this area. What are its most exciting and promising areas of
innovation. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH). These
three responsibilities constitute the bottom line of enterprise development. Articles reviewed
concerning ”SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth”. Future scholars can try other
classification methods to propose research agendas from different perspectives. In contrast, DEA was
used to determine whether the sectoral investments are appropriately budgeted and how they can be
improved for sustainable development and economic growth. Please let us know what you think of
our products and services. Feature papers are submitted upon individual invitation or

can better explore MCDM applications to prioritize projects and programs for SDGs achievement
and define public policies addressed to the 2030 Agenda implementation in different contexts.
Various dimensions with different conflicting and complementing questionnaires and numerous
instruments from the literature on TL construct have been identified. In the framework of sustainable
service supply chain management based on ternary theory, it is important to consider the constraints
of the triple bottom line and to design the corresponding service supply chain strategy. Second, from
the perspective of research content, the existing studies investigate the dynamic and steady-state
operations decisions ( Zhong et al., 2019; Wu et al., 2020 ). These studies can provide platform
managers with insights from different perspectives. This includes assessing the acceptability of the
existing models, which is one of the major objectives of this paper. In 2008, Britain officially
approved and applied the Climate Change Act by Congress, which made Britain the first country in
the world with a long-term framework of legal binding aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions
in order to adapt to climate change. For more information on the journal statistics, click here.
Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease (TropicalMed). It identifies four stages of an effective
literature review, namely planning, selection, extraction and execution. International Journal of
Turbomachinery, Propulsion and Power (IJTPP). It was found that only ?8% of the articles
considered a period of more than 10 years in their research. The conflicts among environmental
overconsumption, increasing social problems, and a low-profit operation model have restricted the
sustainable development of the service supply chain. Gout, Urate, and Crystal Deposition Disease
(GUCDD). The most significant number of local studies refer to India (8 articles), followed by Iran
(6), China (4), Spain and Turkey (3 each), and then Saudi Arabia (2). 3.6. Sources of the Reviewed
Articles Table 4 presents the top 5 scientific journals and the total citations of the 41 reviewed
articles published in these journals. Articles reviewed concerning ”SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and
Communities”. We conducted a review of articles related to sustainable investment published in the
journals indexed in the Web of Science. The study provides helpful insights for issuers’ strategic
planning and could be a stepping stone to increasing issuance not only for the Chinese green bond
market but also for the global.
Different from these three literature reviews, we focus on the issues in on-demand service platform
operations management, dividing the existing studies into “Single platform” and “Multiple
platforms”, as well as categorizing them according to their research methods. Institutional Review
Board Statement Not applicable. Finally, they provide a separate solution for the sustainable logistics
service supply chain. 3.3. Sustainable Supply Chain Management: Society and Economy Point of
View Although there is an increasing application of ISO26000 in the social responsibility aspect, the
research of sustainable supply chain management in the social aspect is less pronounced than it is in
the two other aspects. Journal of Pharmaceutical and BioTech Industry (JPBI). Concerning the
integration of MCDM methods, the most common is the hybrid AHP-TOPSIS method. Regarding
the environment and economy, many papers have discussed SSSCM. First, to identify the gap in the
existing literature on transformational leadership (TL). In some cases, the articles showed the
potential to fall into several categories. In the second and the third positions, “Biosphere” comprises
36 studies, and “Economy” 33 studies. Among these 11 studies, only one study adopted the method
of empirical research. Furthermore, based on these equilibrium results, they studied the impact of
surge pricing on demand surges and examined the incentives for drivers to participate in multi-
homing. On the other hand, existing studies have analyzed the choice of pricing strategies for on-
demand service platforms from different perspectives. By contrast, engagement now is very much
part of routine work. It is assumed that by mentioning a previous work in the field of study, that the
author has read, evaluated, and assimilated that work into the work at hand. Using Sweden as a case
study, this paper provides insights into the rapid growth of the green bond market and how green
bonds affect market participants’ engagement with sustainability that are easily missed if one focuses
only on how green bonds are marketed. Thirdly, in the operation of SSSCM, we must take into
account the social responsibility and economic responsibility under the dual constraints of
organizational relationship management. First, because of the intangible characteristics of service
products, it is not easy for a service supply chain to realize the green supply chain compared with the
manufacturing supply chain. These databases include multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed academic
literature. For example, material flow analysis can track where the materials are and their paths
throughout their supply chains, including environmental and economic analysis. What to do with
these materials relates not only to wind, but also to other alternative energy technologies. This paper
looks at the research works on the present and future housing scenario in the UK, reductions in
embodied energy of insulation materials, techniques for increasing thermal performance and ways in
which the environmental impact can be lessened. A literature review does not demonstrate what you
know but what you have learned from your analysis of the topic or field. Even though ESG presents
a promising framework of sustainable investment, such issues raise questions over the legitimacy of
this approach. The paper analyzes the research carried out in the field of sustainable investment in
order to identify and highlight research gaps for laying down the research agenda for the future. It
could be found that the total number of articles in Table 3 is 248, which is larger than 101, that is, the
total number of articles in Table 4. Therefore, the triple bottom line’s interaction to the ternary
relation and its mechanism of action will be worthy of further study. Based on the analysis of the
literature, we find that the research of on-demand service platform operations management has been
increasing in the past five years. Subsequently, this review suggests an addressal mechanism for the
problems of reliability, inconsistency, institutional retrogression, and other barriers being faced by
existing sustainable investment strategies. Special thanks go to the anonymous reviewers for their
careful reading of the manuscript. A total of 225 papers were found through the search criteria, out of
which 213 papers were selected for review.
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease (JCDD). Sustainable investment is a potential
solution to social and ecological issues by transforming the financial markets to have more
accountability for their impacts. Articles reviewed concerning ”SDG 2: Zero Hunger and Sustainable
Agriculture”. The previously mentioned findings and research agenda here presented can support
new research projects and teaching activities related to MCDM methods from the perspective of
their potential use in those contexts. Even though the strategies are different from each other, there is
a lot of intersection amongst these strategies. Conflicts of Interest The authors declare no conflict of
interest. Impact of emotional expressions on sales in space-sharing economy ”, Production and
Operations Management, Vol. 31 No. 1, pp. 65 - 82. However, more researchers are currently
focusing on this area. Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease (TropicalMed). Find support for a
specific problem in the support section of our website. Editors select a small number of articles
recently published in the journal that they believe will be particularly. A Framework of Sustainable
Service Supply Chain Management: A Literature Review and Research Agenda. Globally, crystalline
silicon has been the predominant solar PV technology. While the pillar of governance is highly
transparent, the environmental pillar is not so transparent. In the aspect of PSSCs, many PSSCs
manage physical products together with significant service considerations. We analyzed and sorted
those 17 papers systematically, and the result is shown in Table 5. 4. Sustainable Supply Chain
Operation Framework Although the studies of manufacturing supply chain have matured, there are
still some shortcomings in the sustainable research of the service supply chain. The interviews were
conducted on 3 representatives from each of the manufacturers and 3 external representatives from
different institutions. So, a research gap to be investigated was identified in the planning stage. In
terms of service optimization, some scholars have studied the supply-demand matching problem of
on-demand instant service platforms ( Ke et al., 2020a; Yang et al., 2020a; Guo et al., 2021; Kong et
al., 2021; Lin et al., 2021a ). Such problems are biased toward the modeling, simulation and
optimization of complex situations. Covering the time frame 2010 to 2020 and focusing more
specifically on previous studies that employed the systematic literature review (SLR) approach to
give a comprehensive overview of what has been done in the MCDM research field, a literature
search was conducted accessing documents from the Scopus database. According to the observations
of the industry, there are many unique characteristics of on-demand service platforms that are
different from traditional enterprises, such as network externalities, innovative business models and
supply-demand matching. Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing (JMMP). They
developed an aggregate modeling framework to examine the practicability of such a dual-sourcing
strategy. There are many operations throughout the value chain of the apparel sector from yarn
manufacturing to final product finishing such as but not limited to dyeing, printing, washing,
cutting, sewing, bonding, and packaging, which impact on the environment and there are many
practices implemented to mitigate the environmental impacts throughout this value chain. She
positioned all critical materials on axes of importance and supply risk related to market, recycling
options, and environmental concerns. This study theoretically explores the impact of sustainable
environmental practices on financial performance of Ready-made Garment (RMG) companies of
Bangladesh following the growing literature linking corporate sustainable environmental
performance with revenue development and profitability. ESG strategies have also led to
inconsistency in sustainable investment decisions, due to a number of reasons. As shown in Figure 8,
triple bottom lines are still the service supply chain of sustainable management’s criteria. In the real
world, these kinds of service supply chains can be found in industries such as finance,
telecommunication, Internet service, mobile apps, and tourism. The stand-alone Impact of
Sustainable Development on Service Supply Chain Participants.
In the last decade, multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods have been widely considered
by researchers, scientists, and practitioners. Supply chain management will comply with the trend of
sustainable development. These three responsibilities constitute the bottom line of enterprise
development. Generally, it takes about 15 years to develop a mineral deposit that has been identified;
18-20 years to invent a newly identified deposit. The amount of money received through the selling
of Programs that support the use of renewable energy sources, the growth of agriculture, fisheries,
and poultry, as well as clean transportation, afforestation, the preservation of biodiversity, moderate
fossil fuel consumption, and the slowed rate of global warming are funded with the help of green
bonds. Articles reviewed concerning ”SDG 2: Zero Hunger and Sustainable Agriculture”. A
Framework of Sustainable Service Supply Chain Management: A Literature Review and Research
Agenda. Different from these three literature reviews, we focus on the issues in on-demand service
platform operations management, dividing the existing studies into “Single platform” and “Multiple
platforms”, as well as categorizing them according to their research methods. They found that while
monopolies always have an incentive to inform all participants about prices, platforms may be
reluctant to disclose information in the context of two-sided single-homing and competitive
bottlenecks. Most of the supply chain research starts with the manufacturing supply chain. Therefore,
many sustainable supply chain management methods in the manufacturing industry are very helpful
in exploring the sustainable service supply chain research. Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease
(TropicalMed). Of course, there are also some certain risks in the ternary relation. This paper
conducts a literature review of 72 papers on on-demand service platform operations management.
Theoretical analysis and empirical evidence from O2O on-demand food service market ”,
International Journal of Production Economics, Vol. 219, pp. 375 - 385. Note: More than one
methodological MCDM approach can be adopted in one single article so that the sum of the
methodological categories exceeds 143 articles. The papers having strong arguments in relation to the
themes are discussed further in this section. 4.1.1. Context The first classification categorizes the
papers on the basis of their context. Meanwhile, based on an empirical study of the food supply
chain, he confirmed the existing potential synergies between innovation and sustainability. At the
same time, during the economic globalization process, the service industry has increased quickly, and
its contribution to economic growth is increasingly obvious. The study also analyzes the effects of
variables that are known to be important for the green bond based on previous studies. So, they
analyzed the keywords, titles, and abstracts of the 863 downloaded articles to select the articles for
this systematic literature review based on the exclusion criteria previously defined, namely: (i) articles
did not directly deal with MCDM applications to decision-problems regarding SDGs’ achievement
within the 2030 Agenda framework, and (ii) articles did not describe the MCDM approach they have
adopted. Finally, four studies can be highlighted regarding the use of fuzzy logic and artificial
intelligence combined with MCDM methods. There are many operations throughout the value chain
of the apparel sector from yarn manufacturing to final product finishing such as but not limited to
dyeing, printing, washing, cutting, sewing, bonding, and packaging, which impact on the
environment and there are many practices implemented to mitigate the environmental impacts
throughout this value chain. Articles reviewed in “The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”
category. Next Article in Special Issue Impact of Energy Conservation and Emissions Reduction
Policy Means Coordination on Economic Growth: Quantitative Evidence from China. Chardine-
Baumann and Botta-Genoulaz 2014 Quantitative Computers and Industrial Engineering M This
paper has considered all three aspects of sustainability (total cost, GHG emissions and lead time),
and proposed an optimal framework for multi-objective scenarios to optimize the sustainable supply
chain. Editor’s Choice articles are based on recommendations by the scientific editors of MDPI
journals from around the world. ESG emerged as a reliable tool to measure the social performance of
firms, and has witnessed considerable growth since 2005. He has sorted out mathematical modeling
methods focusing on the optimization of society and the environment. The “experiential” part of the
rubric does not mean that you must bring in your experience and voice throughout the work, but
rather provide context to the topic, mainly in the introduction.
