Abstract:
The APSRG has been working on this research inquiry for the past 7 months, aiming to examine the potential for improving resource efficiency and decreasing waste production across supply chains of both large businesses and SMEs. Taking the shape of an essay collection, with contributions from businesses, consultants and academics in the sector, the APSRG has identified best practice examples and areas for potential improvement in making supply chains more sustainable, resource efficient and circular. The collection also outlines recommendations to business and Government as to how supply chains can be used as a mechanism to improve business sustainability and resource efficiency efforts.
