The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of supply chain quality integration (SCQI) and green supply chain practices and their impact on the Triple bottom line (TBL) in driving sustainability performance.
Structural equation modeling of partial least squares was used to study the relationships between SCQI and green supply chain practices (GSCPs) in driving sustainable performance and is empirically tested using data from 167 manufacturing firms.
This study reveals that supply chain quality integration (SCQI) enhances the green purchasing activity as well as the implementation of internal environmental management (IEM) of the firm. However, IEM is a crucial factor that contributes to sustainability performance.
This study is one of the few relevant researches that would benefit manufacturing organizations to further improve their triple bottom line by integrating supply chain quality with green practices.
