| Abstract | Sustainability is about addressing and balancing the economic, environmental and social aspects of businesses, their operations and outputs. Many businesses consider sustainability as one of their core strategic values but find it hard to implement in their existing business setting. Using system dynamics concepts, this paper explores the application of sustainability principles in the context of warehouse storage and distribution management. This paper also introduces the models of setting up of a warehouse or transformation of an existing warehouse that provides the storage and distribution services to customers using third party transportation systems. The concept of a sustainable warehouse is introduced and the models that enable us to understand and manage the business in a sustainable fashion are described. The implementation within a system dynamics modelling and application building environment is also discussed. |
