However, how buying companies manage diverse suppliers in supplier diversity programs is under-researched. This research takes the perspective of a diverse supplier and investigates how the diverse supplier perceives the relationship with the buyer. Drawing on justice theory, the impact of the diverse supplier’s perception of the buying company’s justice behavior (distributive, procedural, interpersonal, and informational justice) on the supplier’s commitment to, and investment in, the diverse supplier-buyer relationship is investigated. Survey data from 131 women-owned businesses were used to test theoretically derived hypotheses. Analysis shows that perceived buyer distributive justice and interpersonal justice positively affect supplier commitment, and perceived buyer informational justice positively relates to diverse supplier investment in the relationship. Perceived buyer procedural justice, however, has a negative effect on diverse supplier commitment. Diverse supplier commitment and supplier investment positively influence the diverse supplier’s relationship performance.

However, the impact of public procurement on firms’ adoption of the CE and the mechanism affecting this relation are not fully understood. By analyzing a sample of Chinese listed firms from 2010 to 2020 based on logit regression models, we find that supplier firms engaging in public procurement are more likely to adopt CE practices. In addition, we find that an increase in firms’ market power weakens the positive effect of public procurement on CE adoption, whereas government attention and institutional ownership strengthen this effect. Furthermore, we distinguish between local governments and the Chinese central government as buyers and find that local governments play a more significant role in promoting CE adoption than the central government. This study provides the first empirical evidence of the relation between public procurement and CE adoption and identifies the mechanism by which public procurement affects CE adoption.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":"30 4","pages":"Article 100907"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S147840922400013X/pdfft?md5=f4a0acef8e5281265d73afd60c4948d4&pid=1-s2.0-S147840922400013X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140278787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This interpretivist qualitative study provides insights into the managerial sensemaking of the circular SC transition, including the barriers faced and the strategic actions taken to overcome the barriers and realize desired outcomes. Semi-structured interviews with 19 change agents were combined with a cognitive mapping approach. The individual cognitive structures were synthesized into an overarching sensemaking map that captured the informants’ perceptions and social construction of the circular SC transition. The findings reveal four shared cognitive frames (i.e., the most plausible schemes) held by change agents: (1) SC cooperation, (2) circular business models, (3) circular design, and (4) material choice. Moreover, we develop a framework that highlights how sensemaking contributes to the calibration of cognitive frames and the strategies pursued by individuals. We contribute to the literature by providing insights into change agents’ social construction and perceptions of the circular SC transition and propose key takeaways for practitioners and policymakers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":"30 4","pages":"Article 100906"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1478409224000128/pdfft?md5=2f91e07772106abe4f167a5a52fc7332&pid=1-s2.0-S1478409224000128-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140046434","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These include different types of disclosure (i.e., product, process, and sourcing network), self- and third-party verified disclosure, partial and full disclosure, as well as the attributes associated with information disclosure using blockchain technology: immutability and update frequency. Building on concepts in signalling theory and inter-organisational trust, our research uses a choice-based conjoint experimental design to elicit responses from 234 managers with decision-making roles in procurement. Using this design, we calculate the relative importance of attributes, part-worth utility, and marginal willingness to pay, and test hypotheses about buyer preferences and willingness to pay. Our research reveals that buyers prefer suppliers with sustainability signals that span across different types of disclosure and methods of disclosure. It emphasises the importance of how sustainability information is disclosed, highlighting buyer trust in self-disclosure and a preference for comprehensive, regularly updated information. However, we find mixed results for buyers' willingness to pay. For instance, buyers prefer third-party verified supply chain transparency, but we do not find a significantly higher willingness to pay for such information compared to self-disclosure. The implications suggest a competitive advantage for suppliers adopting voluntary disclosure, prioritising disclosure based on buyer preferences, and recognising the limited direct impact of blockchain technology. Our research contributes to advancing our understanding of information disclosure in supply chain transparency and presents new avenues of inquiry into the value of blockchain-enabled platforms in supply chain sustainability reporting.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":"30 2","pages":"Article 100900"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1478409224000062/pdfft?md5=22ab7a8221ca645e2c014570de45c340&pid=1-s2.0-S1478409224000062-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139770716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
