dc.description.abstract | This paper highlights the fundamental contribution that supply chain professionals
can make to the transition to a circular economy. It aims to provide a general
understanding of how the circular economy and supply chain management fields
are related to one another. By exploring the concept of a circular supply chain,
the paper illustrates the role of supply chain professionals in operationalising
circular economy initiatives within their organisations, as well as the opportunities
and challenges they may encounter along the way. The paper also provides initial
recommendations for and examples of companies overcoming some of these
challenges, based on the experiences of supply chain professionals involved in
the research. Additional research into the real-life experiences of such professionals
will be needed to gain a fuller understanding of the exact changes needed to their
role, and the best practices they can deploy to effectively transition to circular
supply chains.
This paper has been developed in collaboration with the Circular Supply
Chain Network, a global community of supply chain professionals committed
to accelerating the transition to circular supply chains. The content has been
informed by a set of interviews conducted in the Spring of 2023, as well as insights
gathered from a working group series run with supply chain professionals from the
Foundation’s Network in June of 2023 | en_GB |
