Sustainable and Resilience Improvement Through the Design for Circular Digital Supply Chain

Resilient and sustainable supply chain management (SCM) practices have been established in recent decades to reduce the likelihood and consequences of disruptions and the negative environmental effects along the supply chain. To deal with such issues, it's important to be able to quantify the effectiveness of all supply chain processes in a circular economy model while taking technological revolution into account. Furthermore, Design for X (DFX) approaches show significant potential for improving product and service functionality from a variety of perspectives X. In this respect, the aim of this paper is first to propose a circular digital SCOR model that depicts the impact of digital technology on various circular SCOR processes. Second, using DFX techniques, a conceptual model, called Design for circular digital Supply chain (DFCDSC), has been proposed that includes the key design factors for the development and implementation of the circular digital supply chains. Since it highlights the main lines of research in the area, the proposed framework will provide crucial managerial perspectives for practitioners and managers.
