CRSSCA for Sustainability

The Centre for Research in Sustainable Supply Chain Analytics (CRSSCA) is the world's first and only research centre dedicated to "sustainable supply chain analytics". The mission of the CRSSCA is to provide big data-driven, innovative, and analytical solutions to and to disseminate scholarly knowledge in the understanding of complex modern global supply chain problems through the lens of sustainability (economic, environmental, social and cultural).

CRSSCA fosters interdisciplinary research that sheds light on complex issues in supply chain management. Keeping sustainability imperatives front and centre, CRSSCA creates new knowledge in prescribing solution models for data-driven industrial problems, devises analytical tools for better decision-making, and develops insights into the intricate relationships between supply chain operations, green logistics (global trade, inventory, process, and product design, procurement, manufacturing, transportation) and sustainable consumption. A frontier research hub in Eastern Canada, CRSSCA enables faculty-student-industry research collaborations, brings in research funding, produces cutting-edge research, sponsors annual workshops and case competitions, and provides unique opportunities for students and executives to enhance their academic and professional skills while enabling research experience for students majoring in Supply Chain and Logistics Management Bachelor of Commerce degree program at Dalhousie University.
