Besides the focus on what is necessary to introduce in sustainability management, there are several questions on how and why sustainability has been developed in operations and supply chain management.
Thus, understanding the practices of sustainability helps to go beyond the traditional perspective towards a more multi-disciplinary and holistic approach of sustainability management in supply chains and operations.
