Abstract
The implementation of free trade agreements around the globe has forced companies to differentiate their business to stay competitive globally. Companies are expected to be sustainable, fulfilling all aspects of the triple bottom line. Therefore, a sustainable supply chain management is a challenge to be implemented. This study serves as a preliminary research to discover the perception of sustainable supply chain management among Indonesian companies and its current implementation. The research was conducted through questionnaires and in-depth interviews to representatives of the companies. The industrial respondents are varied to different types, from multinational companies, state-owned companies to local companies. Results suggested that local companies have yet gain understanding of the benefit of being sustainable. Only state-owned and multinational companies have good perception on the issue and just starting to implement the tools of sustainable supply chain management to reduce costs.
