Abstract
The construction industry plays a pivotal role in achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 11 and 12 due to its significant environmental and economic impact. This study examines the influence of sustainable procurement (SP) on SDGs, with a focus on the mediating roles of sustainable logistics (SL) and sustainable metamorphosis practices (SMP). Using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with data from 245 construction professionals, the findings reveal that SP directly enhances SL and SMP, which significantly mediate the relationship between SP and SDGs. The results underscore the importance of integrating procurement and logistics strategies to foster sustainability in construction projects. This research contributes to the theoretical understanding of sustainable supply chain management and provides practical insights for aligning procurement processes with sustainability goals.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Cleaner Production is an international, transdisciplinary journal that addresses and discusses theoretical and practical Cleaner Production, Environmental, and Sustainability issues. It aims to help societies become more sustainable by focusing on the concept of 'Cleaner Production', which aims at preventing waste production and increasing efficiencies in energy, water, resources, and human capital use. The journal serves as a platform for corporations, governments, education institutions, regions, and societies to engage in discussions and research related to Cleaner Production, environmental, and sustainability practices.
