Abstract

Assessing vendors based on their environmental performance and practices is known as "green supplier selection." The supplier's energy efficiency, waste management practices, carbon footprint, usage of renewable resources, and compliance with environmental standards are just a few of the variables taken into account in this evaluation. Suppliers who commit to sustainability and make an effort to lessen their environmental effect are given preference by organizations.  Environmental Impact: Research on green supplier selection focuses on finding vendors that value sustainable practices. Sustainable Supply Chains: Research on green supplier selection aids in the development of sustainable supply chains for businesses. Risk management: Research on ecofriendly supplier selection aids businesses in controlling environmental hazards in their supply chains. Research on green supplier selection encourages collaboration and innovation throughout supply chains. Regulation Compliance: Environmental rules are tightening, and businesses must abide by them to stay out of trouble with the law. Research on green supplier selection supports the overarching objective of sustainable development. The primary premise of the technique is that the structural material acts in a linear elastic fashion, and that appropriate safety may be maintained by adequately limiting stresses in the material caused by the anticipated "working loads" on the framework. Define Criteria and Objectives, Supplier Identification, Data collection, evaluation and scoring, supplier engagement, Decision making, performance monitoring, Supplier Development Supplier1, Supplier2, supplier 3, supplier 4, supplier 5, supplier 6 Green capability, Price, Quality, Green design, green   material, Environmental, Personnel teaching, Waste management, Re-use rate, Re-cycle rate. Among all the suppliers, supplier 6 gets first rank in green supplier selection with the weighted sum method we are able to find the best green supplier it has been evaluated with various parameters and methodology.
