• Interpretive structural modeling

Presently, industries face tremendous pressure from customer's environmental awareness and stricter environmental regulations to incorporate ethical and environmental considerations in all facets of traditional supply chain management (TSCM). Green supply chain management (GSCM) is a well-known and established concept to incorporate ethical, environmental considerations in TSCM which satisfies the needs of environmental policies and customers and restricts hazards. The objective of this paper is to identify the key pressures of motivation for adoption of GSCM in TSCM. This paper, initially identified 25 pressures from previous literature sources, secondly influential pressure was determined with help of interpretive structural modeling technique through expert's opinion. This technique identified five level of influential pressures from recommended 25 pressures based on the impact. The result of this paper inferred that Indian auto component manufacturing industries are facing pressure from government and regulation policies categories. The study result is helpful to visualize which pressure provides more motivation to GSCM practices and which pressure is motivation-less to engage GSCM in traditional activities, especially to maintain environmental regulation policies. This approach was conducted with 16 auto components manufacturing industries in Tamilnadu, South India.
