Abstract

Traditional procurement approaches and their prescribed business-as-usual practices are no longer sufficient in the face of society’s grand environmental and resource challenges. In response, this research presents circular procurement, which is grounded in the circular economy (CE) philosophy, as a business-not-as-usual approach to firm and supply chain level purchasing decisions. Drawing on institutional theory and the practice-based view of strategy, a conceptual model is developed that maps the antecedents as well as performance outcomes of circular procurement practices in terms of the environmental and economic (i.e., cost and financial) dimensions of performance. Survey data from 255 Chinese manufacturers is then analyzed alongside qualitative data from two post-survey case studies to achieve better interpretation of survey results. The findings indicate that coercive pressures and integrated management systems (IMS) are key antecedents of circular procurement practices among Chinese manufacturers. Furthermore, circular procurement practices show a significant and positive effect on environmental, cost, and financial performance. Interestingly, the association between environmental performance and circular procurement is relatively weak in comparison to economic performance. This research provides empirical evidence of the performance outcomes of circular procurement and contributes to the literature by advancing our understanding of its theoretical foundations. It further provides important practical and policy guidelines that can help to enhance the development of circular procurement.

循环采购的前因与绩效结果:中国的实证研究
面对社会面临的巨大环境和资源挑战,传统的采购方法及其规定的 "一切照旧 "做法已不再足够。为此,本研究提出了以循环经济(CE)理念为基础的循环采购,作为企业和供应链层面采购决策的一种 "不按常理出牌 "的方法。本研究借鉴制度理论和基于实践的战略观点,建立了一个概念模型,从环境和经济(即成本和财务)两个方面描绘了循环采购实践的前因和绩效结果。随后,对来自 255 家中国制造商的调查数据进行了分析,同时还对两项调查后案例研究的定性数据进行了分析,以更好地解释调查结果。研究结果表明,强制压力和综合管理系统(IMS)是中国制造商循环采购实践的关键前因。此外,循环采购实践对环境、成本和财务绩效都有显著的积极影响。有趣的是,与经济绩效相比,环境绩效与循环采购之间的关联相对较弱。这项研究为循环采购的绩效结果提供了实证证据,并通过推进我们对其理论基础的理解为相关文献做出了贡献。研究还提供了重要的实践和政策指导,有助于促进循环采购的发展。
