2. Cite a company, its nature. Describe how the company information from its environment impress its management and business as a whole?

In today’s business world, the competitive among company is very high. To make customer impress, the company needs to make themselves standing out from others. Being environmental friendly is one way to differentiate them from the competitors. Furthermore, when competitors already adopted GSCM, the company gets a pressure instead. Therefore, it is a good idea to implement GSCM no matter the competitors have adopted it or not. Not only competitors, but do customers affect to the company’s decision to adopt the GSCM. In many cases, customers were the one who require special treatment or special products. Therefore, the company needs to make changes to make them satisfy and stay with them. Some papers studied about the relationship between applying GSCM with customer’s requirement such as (Simpson, Power, & Samson, 2007). In this study, they explored the moderating impact of relationship between a customer and its suppliers and effectiveness of customer’s environmental performance requirements.
