Description of the research topic:

Cooperation between global green logistic and supply chains is difficult and complex; the analysis of goals, critical points, concrete methods and technologies offer new scientific results. The effectiveness of these complex systems can further be increased via scientific research.
The topic of the research includes the supply chain-level analysis of the effects caused by the innovative technologies of our continuously changing world; and their application in the field of logistics might imply a more viable, and from a corporate point of view a more effective and more productive vision. Due to renewing processes and technologies, competition becomes sharper between companies within the chain. In addition, companies will appear that are new in this field capturing market segments from other firms by using greener solutions with up-to-date tools applied in process management.
The objective of the research is to examine the global technological novelties at the level of process management taking place in the field of green supply chains in Europe. Another objective is to reveal their advantages and disadvantages and to highlight the critical points. After the optimisation carried out at the level of process management, the final objective is to prove and show the effectiveness of new technologies for companies.
During the research, the student will broaden his/her professional perspective on the topic, learn about new innovative technologies used in practice, which he/she is expected to be able to adapt.

Expected results:

The expected impact of the application of technological innovation tools or combinations of tools related to the green supply chain on the company and the environment.
Publication in journals of the results of the research, which would make both domestic and international companies willing and able to restructure some of their operations, develop or introduce a more environmentally friendly process.
By optimising processes, measuring efficiency and developing a new model, it is expected that the costs of technological innovation will be recovered and have a positive impact on market position and green supply chain efficiency.
