A comprehensive bibliometric analysis is used in this study to investigate the emerging trends in production management with respect to green transformation. A massive literature review was conducted using Web of Science and also various bibliometric indicators, namely SWOT analysis, co-citation of cited authors, bibliographic coupling of authors, citation of authors, co-occurrence of author keywords, co-authorship of countries and co-authorship of authors. The analysis employed VOS viewer software which is a bibliometric network mapping tool.
Such findings shed light on major areas and research clusters within production management field particularly as regards sustainability and eco-friendly orientation. Co-citation and bibliographic coupling analyses disclose that seminal works by key authors contributed to the dialogue on green transformation in production management. Besides, the examination of author’s keywords revealed the prevailing themes as well as current topics being researched upon passionately today through scholarly papers. The collaborative networks among researchers were shown by a country-wise distribution across continents indicating that research activities are not restricted to particular countries. The process of SWOT analysis gave a framework through which to evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats related to the inclusion of sustainability in production management.
This research provides insights into how organizations are changing their production management systems in response to environmental sustainability concerns. In addition, it is useful for both researchers and practitioners who want to ensure that their production management strategies are in line with green transformation goals. Future research directions are suggested to address identified gaps and to further investigate the dynamic interplay between production management and sustainable development.
