Sustainability information management in the supply chain is a relevant topic already widely addressed in the literature. Indeed, managing sustainability information allows companies to better address business strategy and respond to the information needs of various internal and external stakeholders at different levels in the supply chain. Furthermore, acquiring information on sustainability and processing data increases corporate awareness of the environmental and social risks the company may face. However, concerning the agri-food supply chain, few studies have investigated how information management systems develop and how they evolve over time. Through a qualitative approach, this study proposes the analysis of a case study of a company in the agri-food sector that has numerous agricultural suppliers in its supply chain. The study shows how the information management system has evolved over time, integrating itself into the decision-making process and collecting different information on environmental and social issues.

Abstract

Sustainability information management in the supply chain is a relevant topic already widely addressed in the literature. Indeed, managing sustainability information allows companies to better address business strategy and respond to the information needs of various internal and external stakeholders at different levels in the supply chain. Furthermore, acquiring information on sustainability and processing data increases corporate awareness of the environmental and social risks the company may face. However, concerning the agri-food supply chain, few studies have investigated how information management systems develop and how they evolve over time. Through a qualitative approach, this study proposes the analysis of a case study of a company in the agri-food sector that has numerous agricultural suppliers in its supply chain. The study shows how the information management system has evolved over time, integrating itself into the decision-making process and collecting different information on environmental and social issues.
