This conceptual review explores how supply chain integration (SCI) and green environmental management (GEM) practices affect technological innovation performance (TIP) in firms. Being based on the PRISMA methodology, the study conducts an in-depth review of related literature in various databases and highlights how the eco-design, green manufacturing, and sustainable delivery practices by GEM can directly enhance the ability of businesses to develop environmentally-friendly innovations. Also, through improved information sharing, integration within the supply chain and internal and external collaboration, supply chain integration reinforces this impact. Green practices coupled with supply chain integration have provided a synergy that has produced an ecosystem that has enabled sustainable technological progress, keeping the environment goals in line with the operational efficiencies. The results indicate that those organizations that have implemented all-inclusive green policies and enhanced supply chain relations are in a better place to realize improved innovation results, which can bring both theoretical and practical advice on the sustainable development. Further studies are needed to take on various industry settings, use wider linguistic tools, and to use quantitative designs to learn more about these associations. Altogether, the combination of green environmental management and the cooperation of suppliers chains can play a crucial role in moving the innovation forward and attaining the long-term environmental and competitive success.Bottom of Form
