- Description: As “green” issues continue to become a global concern in the manufacturing supply chain, developing appropriate performance measurement systems for specific supply chains is imperative. Various green supply chain management strategies have been proposed in different contexts. On the other hand, a number of performance management systems (PMS) have been proposed. However, given the variations in the contexts of the available green strategies and the performance measurement approaches, selecting or developing suitable performance measures and the ensuing PMS under a given supply chain context is not trivial. The purpose of this study is to develop a structured taxonomic approach to developing PMS under various green supply chain conditions, contexts, and business objectives. Therefore, we (i) explore extant empirical studies on green supply chain activities and environmental management, (ii) develop a taxonomy of green supply chain strategies, (iii) derive a structured approach to developing green performance management systems, and, (iv) provide a taxonomic performance measurement framework consisting of environmental, economic and social performance metrics. Unlike past studies, the taxonomic framework forms a practical platform to assist decision makers when developing a suitable set of performance measures and the ultimate PMS while considering the particular context of specific green strategies under which the PMS is supposed to operate.

- Description: As environmental issues are continually and rapidly emerging as one of the most crucial topics in strategic manufacturing decision making, the formulation of “green” performance management systems is very important. This research seeks to introduce and explore green performance measurement frameworks that exist in various real-world case studies that are found in literature. The study yielded a set of four taxonomic performance measurement systems that are applicable in specific contexts of manufacturing supply chain strategies. Moreover, specific green performance metrics are provided in respect of the identified green manufacturing strategies. Implications of the application of each performance management system on existing manufacturing policies are evaluated, giving practical managerial insights. The study forms an essential framework for the decision maker to rapidly develop a suitable performance system in a green manufacturing environment, within a reasonable time frame.
