Analysing competing logics towards sustainable supplier management

Veronica Leon Bravo et al.

Summary: This study identified two main logics operating within the Ecuadorian cocoa supply chain SSM process: a commercial logic and a sustainability logic. While these logics address market demand requirements, some local producers' needs impacting SSM remain unexplored, such as the influence of regional ancestral culture that sees sustainability as a dominant logic beyond the triple bottom line. The study found that, of the three SSM sub-processes, supplier development received the most attention from SC managers.

Dancing the Supply Chain: Toward Transformative Supply Chain Management

Andreas Wieland

Summary: Traditional supply chain management theories often adopt reductionist and static views, overlooking the broader context in which supply chains operate and their vulnerability and harmfulness. Recent crises have highlighted the fluidity of supply chain structures and their interconnectedness with political-economic and planetary phenomena. Drawing on panarchy theory, this article reinterprets supply chains as social-ecological systems and presents a more contemporary vision of "dancing the supply chain."
