How 1st‐Tier Suppliers Respond to Green Public Procurement Policies: An Empirical Analysis
ABSTRACT This article analyses how 1st‐tier suppliers to public organisations respond operationally to Green Public Procurement (GPP) policies. Through a multiple case study of 12 Italian firms operating in different sectors, we develop a classification of suppliers' responses, identifying two interrelated macro‐types: internal operations realignment ...
