Abstract
In order to achieve sustainability in manufacturing operations, sustainability needs to be incorporated in all stages of an organization's supply chain. One aspect of sustainable manufacturing includes the manufacturing of sustainable products in which procurement of sustainable components by eligible suppliers plays an important role. Recently, green/sustainable supplier evaluation and selection has achieved a considerable amount of attentions among researchers. Current research narrows the gap in sustainability evaluation of suppliers specifically operating in medical device industry using an efficient Fuzzy Inference System (FIS). Finally, it is concluded that how sustainable procurement can lead a manufacturer to move toward sustainable manufacturing.
