| dc.description.abstract | The manufacturing industry for sports equipment, apparel, and fitness technology
devices faces significant sustainability challenges due to the use of petrochemical-based
materials and high energy consumption. This review highlights the application of
green enterprise resource planning (ERP) tools to enhance sustainable supply chain
management. Key benefits include a 30% reduction in carbon footprint and a 25%
improvement in resource utilization efficiency. Stakeholder surveys reveal critical issues
such as high costs and integration difficulties, particularly for small and medium
enterprises (SMEs).This study employs a systematic literature review and qualitative
analysis to examine existing research, synthesize findings, and identify gaps in the
adoption and effectiveness of green ERP systems.The review identifies several research
gaps, including the limited availability of affordable solutions for SMEs, insufficient
exploration of real-time data sharing for supplier relationship management, and
inadequate studies on the long-term impacts or adaptability of green ERP systems in
industries beyond sports equipment.Green ERP systems, adapted from conventional
ERP systems, aim to optimize efficiency, reduce waste, and quantify emissions, thereby
enabling energy conservation and proper waste management. However, their scalability
is hindered by high implementation costs and integration challenges for SMEs.Future
research should focus on developing cost-effective solutions, implementing real-time
data sharing mechanisms, and expanding the adoption of green ERP systems across
other industries. By addressing these challenges, green ERP systems can emerge as
a vital tool for advancing sustainability and operational performance in the sports
equipment sector and beyond. | en_US |
