  Analyzing Barriers to Digital Procurement in Polymer Composites Supply Chain Using ISM for Sustainable Transformation

  By Amol J. Asalekar, DVA Rama Sastry, Vishal A Bhosale

  Abstract: The adoption of e-procurement in the polymer and composites industry presents a transformative opportunity to enhance supply chain efficiency, reduce material waste, and support sustainable engineering practices. However, industries face significant barriers in transitioning from traditional procurement to digital systems, particularly in sourcing specialized materials such as epoxy resins, bio-based polymers, and hybrid composites. This study employs Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) to identify, analyze, and prioritize eleven critical barriers affecting …
