Evaluation of Supplier Sustainable Development Programs Using the HFLTS-QFD Method

Objective: This study proposes a decision model for evaluating sustainable supplier development programs (SSDPs) using the HFLTS-QFD technique, which is a combination of Hesitant Fuzzy Linguistic Term Sets (HFLTS) with the Quality Function Deployment (QFD) method. Theoretical Framework: The implementation of supplier development programs is important to improve supplier performance in aspects related to economic, environmental and social aspects. The evaluation of these programs is necessary to decide on their continuation or discontinuation, as well as to direct the allocation of resources. Method: The bibliographical research supported the definition of the requirements and criteria used for the evaluation of SDPs. The implementation of the model was done using MS Excel® software. The application in an illustrative case involving the evaluation of five SDPs allowed us to demonstrate the applicability of the model. Results and Discussion: The most relevant criteria were organization strategy, social responsibility, employee training and environmental management. The programs with the best classification were SDP4 and SDP5. Research Implications: The proposed model supports the selection of criteria considering their relative weights and the degree of difficulty in collecting data from suppliers when evaluating each PDFS. It also has the capacity to assist group decision-making, enabling the assignment of weights to decision-makers. Originality/Value: Unlike previous models for evaluating PDFS, which use economic or environmental criteria, the proposed model considers criteria related to the three dimensions of the Triple Bottom Line, in addition to allowing the use of linguistic expressions to deal with decisions under hesitation and uncertainty.

ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ФІНАНСОВОГО ЗАБЕЗПЕЧЕННЯ СІЛЬСЬКИХ ТЕРИТОРІАЛЬНИХ ГРОМАД В УМОВАХ СТАЛОГО РОЗВИТКУ

Financial provision of rural territorial communities in conditions of sustainable development is an important aspect of the country's economic and social development. The successful functioning and development of such communities depend on their ability to attract and effectively distribute the financial resources needed to improve infrastructure, education, health care and other vital areas. In the conditions of sustainable development, which involves a balance between economic growth, social well-being and environmental protection, the financial support of rural communities becomes especially important for the preservation of their unique natural and cultural heritage. That is why the purpose of the presented work is to determine the features of financial support of rural territorial communities in conditions of sustainable development. The methods that were used in the formation of the current study are: methods of analysis and synthesis to determine the key aspects of the development of rural territorial communities; methods of induction and deduction to determine the features of the financial provision of territories; method of comparison; logical method; graphical and tabular methods for visual display of research results. Also, as a result of the study, it was proved that the necessity of diversifying the sources of financing is a prerequisite for the financial provision of rural territorial communities. In particular, such communities should actively attract local tax revenues, state support, as well as use the opportunities of international grants and technical assistance programs. At the same time, effective management of resources aimed at the implementation of sustainable development programs, which includes energy saving, development of local businesses and support of environmental initiatives, becomes an important task. In the context of reforming the financial system in Ukraine, financial decentralization is of particular importance, which opens up new opportunities for strengthening the financial independence of rural communities, at the same time placing greater responsibility on them for the rational use of funds. Rural communities can direct the received finances to improve infrastructure, develop social services, support local entrepreneurs, as well as to environmental and energy-saving initiatives.

The article aims to study the mechanism of financing sustainable development to ensure a balanced approach to economic, social, and environmental development. The article examines the theoretical aspects of forming financial resources necessary for sustainable development. Sustainable development involves a balanced approach to economic growth, social well-being, and environmental protection, which requires adequate funding. The main conceptual approaches to defining sustainable development and financial resources are analyzed, focusing on their interrelationship. One of the key issues of the concept of sustainable development is the search for effective sources of financing for the implementation of sustainable development projects. The article considers the possibilities of attracting both public and private funds, including investments, grants, loans and other financial instruments. However, it also emphasizes the crucial role of international financial institutions and organizations in supporting national sustainable development strategies, highlighting the global nature of the issue and the need for international cooperation. The question of the distribution of financial resources between different economic sectors was studied to achieve the maximum effect from their use. Financial planning and management tools that can ensure optimal use of resources are considered separately. The positive dynamics of the growth of expenses for financing sustainable development in Ukraine are shown; however, a negative trend can be observed in terms of the direction of funds from 2022, namely, the volume of financing has decreased in all directions except for the allocation of funds for social protection and social security. The impact of financial resources on the implementation of sustainable development programs is analyzed, including issues of efficiency and transparency of their use. The importance of creating favorable conditions for attracting investments, developing partnerships between the public and private sectors, as well as the need to increase the financial literacy of the population was determined. This underscores the need for education and empowerment in financial matters, as it is a key factor in the successful implementation of sustainable development strategies. Based on the conducted research, it was concluded that the effective formation and management of financial resources is a key factor in the successful implementation of sustainable development strategies. It is recommended to develop a comprehensive system of monitoring and evaluating the effectiveness of the use of financial resources to ensure the achievement of sustainable development goals.

Transnational corporate influence and local politics: how mining companies intervene in neighbouring communities

AbstractThis paper analyses how transnational mining companies influence decision-making processes and public policies in communities adjacent to industrial gold mines. Most social science research on mining focuses on the emergence and dynamics of social conflicts over mining and overlooks the political influence mining companies exert by implementing development programmes to gain social acceptance. This paper fills this gap and develops a refined understanding of the multiple layers of political influence of companies in mining areas. It finds that mining companies spatialise corporate interests, contribute to an informalisation of political decision-making, assume quasi-governmental functions and, in this way, intensify the privatisation of local politics. This paper draws on approaches from critical governance research, critical geography and participation theory. It analyses corporate influence by distinguishing between socio-spatial, political-institutional and political-developmental forms of influence that companies use to create social acceptance for their particular mining project. Empirically, this paper is based on a comparative case study of corporate influence in communities near industrial gold mines in the Argentine north-west and southern Patagonia. For conflict research, the article offers a novel framework for shedding light on the workings of corporate micropolitics in mining areas beyond manifest conflicts. This contribution illustrates that mining companies have the capacity to mould political institutions and public policies by implementing development programmes that are in fact designed to serve corporate purposes.
