Does the Cloud System Drive Supply Chain Sustainability?

Chapter 13 in Cloud Systems in Supply Chains, 2015, pp 224-245 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Increased pressure on firms to reduce costs and improve efficiency and productivity has forced many suppliers to seek innovative ways to meet their buyers’ commercial requirements within financial constraints. Accordingly, most supply chain firms have already modified their thinking beyond short-term financial considerations toward building relationships that can deliver long-term value along the entire supply chain. This shift means that supply chain firms could be incorporating sustainability issues into their sourcing and purchasing practices.
