Development of Sustainability Framework Based On the Theory of Resource Based View

Abstract

Lean, Green and Agile management are arguably among the most frequently discussed topics in the business-operations management literature. These three concepts are perfectly aligned with theory of resource based view, which advocates a symbiotic relationship between a firm resources and capabilities and performance. In spite of the theoretical and historical linkages between these concepts however, there has been minimal efforts at integrating the concepts of Lean, Green and Agile particularly with regard to sustainability performance. This study therefore proposes a conceptual framework to examine the impact of Lean, Green and Agile practices and the relationship between sustainability performances of a firm. The study is conceptual in nature, as it involves the review of existing literature critically and systematically and synthesis of existing studies and relevant theory have been discussed, leading to the formulation of the proposed framework. Documented evidence in the literature shows that these concepts are historically linked. In spite of the linkage, there have been minimal efforts at integrating the concept of Lean Green Agile to achieve sustainability performance of the firm. The proposed framework provides a guide for examining the impact of Lean Green and Agile practices and sustainability performance achievement. It is hoped that findings emanating from the study will aid companies to further understand the importance of Lean Green and Agile practices in their day to day performance.
