Abstract
Over the last few decades, manufacturers have developed the green concept in their supply chain management to focus on environmental issues. Customers are becoming more environmentally concerned and the government is considering and developing environmental regulations. The main aim of this research is to explore current processes and activities of green procurement management in the computer parts industry of Thailand. Case studies of this research are 5 manufacturers in the computer parts industry in which in-depth interviews and unstructured questionnaires are used to find out the current situation, processes and activities of green procurement management. The results of the research, interesting situations and direction of the computer parts industry are found. The proposed results of this research will help to understand more about green procurement management in the computer parts industry in Thailand and could provide further direction for researchers and practitioners in the computer parts industry. © IEOM Society International. © IEOM Society International.
