Abstract

In today‘s world, highly competitive global operating environment have much concerns as well as attention is focused in the direction of climatic changes and additional ecological concerns. These concerns are not only articulated by campaigners or researchers, but by the common man as well, which has directed to the ultimatum for corporations to take action for sustainability. The public gradually holds corporations responsible for ecological misconduct in their supply chains. To counterbalance that threat companies, start fresh approaches to develop sustainable supply chain. In spite of that suppliers often are unsuccessful to appropriately contribute fresh approaches. This paper presents an approach which evaluates sustainable supplier's performance in supply chain management (SCM) using Differential Evolution to select the efficient suppliers providing the maximum fulfillment for the sustainable criteria determined. Finally, three illustrative cases on automotive & pulp and paper industry validate the application of the present approach.
