Popis: | 105 This study aims to use Means-Ends Chain approach to find out potential value chain and factors influencing green supply chain management (GSCM) applied in screw industry. Screw and fastener are one of the important exporting products in Taiwan. Recently, Taiwan government and screw industry announced NICE upgrade project and screw 4.0 to respond to the incoming intensely competition from China and other overseas countries. One of the project targets is the Eco-friendly production process; to achieve this goal, a few companies’ effort won’t be enough to sustain this upgrade. Therefore, building up a stable and strong GSCM could be one of critical steps to success. This research used soft laddering method to interview 32 senior screw companies’ managers in Kaohsiung. This research extracts 6 critical linkages which can be separated into two types of value path. First type of linkage shows GSCM have positive influence and provide two terminal values- Stable Business and Reputation. By fitting the customer’s requirement and applying GSCM beforehand, screw companies can gain their business reputation and become long-term business partners. Second type of value path represents that GSCM is still considered as a risky investment. Screw companies’ capital limitation is the biggest obstruction. To construct a GSCM system or follow the environmental regulation, plenty of money and resource have to be invested in advance; the maintenance fee will be another issue for system’s long-term sustainability. According to the result found, some managerial implications are provided, which may contain some valuable information for government, managers and relative stakeholders. |
