Abstract

The chosen topic combines social, economic and environmental practices into its system to reduce the impact of ecological activities and encourage outcomes which are socially friendly. The study looked at the effects of sustainable supply chain management practices on procurement performance and factored in the following specific objectives: waste reduction, quality, lead time and customer service. This study was harbored on resource-based theory. The study focused on using a literature review through sampling journals, presented data, and analyzed them appropriately. The study found that waste reduction, quality, lead time and customer service have a profound influence on the chosen study. It is, therefore, confirmed that waste reduction, quality, lead time and customer service are necessary for a workable procurement performance in an organization. The study, therefore, recommended further studies using different design methods to compare the measurement.
