Abstract:
Due to globalization world is now more connected than ever before. To stay competitive, firms need to come up with the new ideas in order to compete in the market and to satisfy the customers. Similarly, the supply chain plays an important role in the success of any firm. If the supply chain is well integrated, it means the firm can utilize resources more efficiently and reduce waste. In this regard the concept of green supply chain is now incorporated by the firms, so as to design the supply chain in such a way that it considers environmental issues and works on achieving sustainability. For the construction of dam, it is very important to save natural resources and minimize the pollution. Due to this, we have proposed a web portal to the Descon (contractor of Mohmand dam) that will help them to introduce green practices to their supply chain as well as it will help the employees at Descon to get the basic knowledge about green supply chain. This web portal also complies with the Sustainable Development Goals and will also help in improving the Environmental Performance Index (EPI) of Pakistan. Our proposed solution for the Descon is a platform which includes all the features, 1) Green materials, (2) Green transportation, (3) Energy-efficient Warehousing, (4) Solar Panel Installation and (5) Reverse Logistics. This web portal will be user friendly, and all the guides will be available for beginners in the user manual provided. This portal will help Descon to introduce green supply chain which will not only help in sustainable development but also to gain a competitive advantage
