A STUDY OF SUSTAINABLE FACILITIES MANAGEMENT FROM A GREEN SUPPLY CHAIN PERSPECTIVE IN THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

Year 2019, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 314 - 323, 31.12.2019

Abstract

The paper investigates how Sustainable Facility Management
(SFM) can be integrated with Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) initiatives
and its application in the innovative sustainable business environment of the
United Arab Emirates (UAE) in compliance with the UAE National 2030 agenda for
sustainable development. To ensure the integration among the three pillars of
sustainability: environmental, economic, and social vision, the UAE National
Innovation Strategy is intending to brand the UAE as one of the most innovative
nations in the world. Considering these initiatives and the concepts of
Facility Management (FM), this research first examines the role of GSCM in
adopting environmentally friendly approaches, and then explores the role FM
plays in the context of GSCM. The study concludes by investigating how both
concepts could be best applied in accordance with the UAE’s vision of 2030
toward sustainable development using secondary European and North American data
as a benchmarking tool for the analysis.
