Abstract:Environmental sustainability has become a central strategic priority for organizations seeking long-term competitiveness. Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) has emerged as a core pillar of this transition, yet many firms still struggle to operationalize environmental practices, measure performance, and balance sustainability with economic growth. At the same time, rapid advancements in digital transformation technologies including IoT, cloud systems, big data analytics, and intelligent automation are reshaping the possibilities for supply chain visibility, resource efficiency, circular economy adoption, and green management. This manuscript integrates the foundational principles of GSCM with the transformative potential of digital technologies, supported by insights from industrial case evidence. The study expands the conceptual scope of traditional GSCM by incorporating digital transformation, green supply chain integration, absorptive capacity, and economic policy uncertainty as strategic variables influencing sustainable performance. The analysis highlights how digital transformation enhances environmental monitoring, supplier transparency, process optimization, and end-to-end circular flows. Findings reveal that organizations embracing green integration and digitalization achieve substantial reductions in emissions, waste, and water usage while gaining operational efficiency and competitive advantage. The manuscript proposes an integrated framework that unifies digital transformation and GSCM to accelerate sustainability outcomes and future-ready supply chain resilience.

Title:Okvir za zeleno upravljanje dobavne verige za trajnostno delovanje organizacij in odličnost na področju zelenega upravljanja
Abstract:Okoljska trajnost je postala osrednja strateška prednostna naloga za organizacije, ki si prizadevajo za dolgoročno konkurenčnost. Zeleno upravljanje oskrbovalne verige (GSCM) se je uveljavilo kot ključni steber tega prehoda, vendar se številna podjetja še vedno spopadajo z izzivi pri uvajanju okoljskih praks, merjenju uspešnosti ter usklajevanju trajnosti z gospodarsko rastjo. Hkrati pa hitri napredek v tehnologijah digitalne transformacije, vključno z internetom stvari (IoT), oblačnimi sistemi, analitiko velikih podatkov in inteligentno avtomatizacijo, preoblikuje možnosti za preglednost oskrbovalne verige, učinkovitost virov, sprejemanje krožnega gospodarstva in zeleno upravljanje. Ta članek združuje temeljna načela GSCM s transformativnim potencialom digitalnih tehnologij, podprtimi z ugotovitvami iz primerov iz industrije. Študija razširja konceptualni obseg tradicionalnega zelenega upravljanja oskrbovalne verige (GSCM) z vključitvijo digitalne transformacije, integracije zelene dobavne verige, absorpcijske zmogljivosti in negotovosti gospodarske politike kot strateških spremenljivk, ki vplivajo na trajnostno uspešnost. Analiza poudarja, kako digitalna transformacija izboljšuje spremljanje okolja, preglednost dobaviteljev, optimizacijo procesov in celovite krožne tokove. Ugotovitve kažejo, da organizacije, ki sprejemajo zeleno integracijo in digitalizacijo, dosegajo znatno zmanjšanje emisij, odpadkov in porabe vode, hkrati pa pridobivajo operativno učinkovitost in konkurenčno prednost. Članek predlaga integriran okvir, ki združuje digitalno transformacijo in GSCM za pospešitev trajnostnih rezultatov in odpornosti oskrbovalne verige, pripravljene na prihodnost.
