Green Supply Chain Performance Evaluation of Manufacturing Enterprises with 3d Printing Business Model

摘要

Green supply chain is becoming the core competitive instrument for more and more enterprises. At the same time, new business models are emerging for the application of 3D printing technology, which has a significant impact on supply chain. The co-existence of these two phenomena for manufacturing enterprises suggests the development of precise and efficient green supply chain performance indicators in connection with 3D printing. A green supply chain performance evaluation system was proposed for manufacturing enterprises assuming 3D printing business model is adopted in this paper. More in detail the paper proposed a Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) approach to explicitly consider and evaluate the implication with respect to: 1) 3D printing business process, 2) financial implications, 3) environmental performance, 4) customer service levels. The case study confirmed the feasibility of the evaluation system and approach. The paper provides theoretical and practical reference for the green supply chain performance evaluation of manufacturing enterprise in 3D printing Times.
