Green Manufacturing attributes analysis through MCDM in Indian manufacturing Industries

Due to implementation of new laws by government regarding the protection of the environment, manufacturing companies are being compelled to adopt environmental policies. Green manufacturing and sustainability have shown variety of corporate interests in including IT and marketing companies etc. The purpose of this groundwork is to recognise and examine the critical success factors (CSFs) of GMP that contribute to the accomplishment of environmental sustainability in the manufacturing industries of India. Factors and sub factors responsible for GM implementation were identified through a literature analysis in this research work. The Cronbach's alpha method was used to check the reliability of the selected factors then on these factor's different tests i.e., AHP, TOPSIS and VIKOR's tools were applied to check the priority of the selected factors. Through the analysis of all tools most appropriate factors are GM implementation issues, organisation style, the role of legislation for promoting GM and eco knowledge.
