Towards greening smart cities: Navigating net zero carbon in construction by 2050 through sustainable practices, innovation climate, and management support
The construction sector faces increasing pressure to adopt sustainable practices to promote sustainable cities and contribute to the global environmental agenda. However, a research gap exists in understanding how green innovation adoption (GIA) and green supply chain management (GSCM) influence sustainable project success (SPS). This study aims to address this gap by examining the impact of sustainable practices on SPS, focusing on innovation climate (IC) and top and middle management support (TMMC). A quantitative cross-sectional survey of 619 construction professionals in Pakistan was analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The findings reveal that GIA and GSCM significantly influence SPS, with R² = 0.74, indicating that 74 % of the variance in SPS is explained by the model. The f² values show a large effect for GIA (f² = 0.41) and GSCM (f² = 0.37) on SPS, highlighting the strength of these relationships. Further, IC mediates these relationships, with indirect large effects for GIA (f² = 0.44) and GSCM (f² = 0.39) on SPS. TMMS moderates these relationships, with moderation effect sizes of f² = 0.23 for GSCM and f² = 0.19 for GIA, thereby enhancing SPS. This study's originality lies in emphasizing the critical role of TMMS through policy frameworks in promoting sustainable practices and an innovation climate, contributing to SPS. Based on these findings, construction firms, policy makers, and sustainability practitioners are encouraged to prioritize the integration of GIA and GSCM, align with industry standards, and foster TMMS through strategic frameworks to enhance SPS and foster environmentally resilient cities.
