Abstract
This study is an attempt to find out, whether the manufacturing industries follow only the traditional criteria in their supplier selection or they also include green criteria in the supplier selection. Data for the study were collected from 50 different gear manufacturing micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSME) sector and all the criteria were tested using a multi-criteria decision-making technique, such as the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). Results concerning the main criteria followed in the study show that cost, quality, delivery, and environmental manufacturing management are considered prime criteria in the supplier selection. Gear manufacturing MSMEs using various criteria concerning different supplier selection are discussed in this paper. The study is expected to act as a future guide for manufacturing industries, especially in the MSME sector in their evaluation and selection of suppliers, as they adopt various supplier selection criteria.
