Integrating environmental criteria into the supplier selection process

open access: yesJournal of Materials Processing Technology, 2003
In this paper, a framework for integrating environmental factors into the supplier selection process is presented. Traditionally, companies consider factors like quality, flexibility, etc. when evaluating supplier performance.

Environmental Selection and Physician Supply

American Journal of Sociology, 1982
A new conceptual framework for explaining physician distribution and forecasting regional physician supply is presented. Unlike existing efforts at explaining physician distribution, which rely on models of individual physicians making choices regarding location of practice (e.g., economic and psychological models), this paper develops an environmental

Environmental Management in Operations: The Selection of Environmental Technologies*

Decision Sciences, 1999
Manufacturing firms have given management of the natural environment higher priority as public awareness and scrutiny has increased. To help understand management's role in this process, a basic conceptual model of environmental management within operations is developed.

Environmental factors and stroke: A selective review

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 1997
Despite numerous prior stroke risk factor investigations, much remains unknown about the effect of environmental factor changes on stroke incidence and mortality rates. Yet these data might be important for defining a number of measures to prevent stroke and for developing a greater understanding of the origin and incidence trends of stroke in ...

Selected Environmental Skin Disorders

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1992
The acute development of an irritating rash often results in a patient presenting to the Emergency Department instead of scheduling an office visit. This rash is frequently the result of the patient's interaction with the environment. Consequently, it is important that emergency physicians become more familiar with environmentally induced skin ...

Mutation‐Selection Balance for Environmental Variance

The American Naturalist, 2008
The role of mutation-selection balance in maintaining environmental variance (V(E)) of quantitative traits is investigated under the assumption that genotypes differ in the magnitude of phenotypic variance, given genotypic value. Thus, V(E) can be regarded as a quantitative trait.

Extraction Solvent Selection in Environmental Analysis

Analytical Chemistry, 2001
A method for the prediction of a suitable solvent for the extraction of pesticides is outlined. The procedure is based on the Hildebrand solubility parameter, delta(t). The solubility parameter is broken down into three individual components, which are calculated by the addition of group contributions.
