Korucuk, S., Aytekin, A., Ecer, F., Karamaşa, Ç., & Zavadskas, E. K. (2022). Assessing Green Approaches and Digital Marketing Strategies for Twin Transition via Fermatean Fuzzy SWARA-COPRAS. Axioms, 11(12), 709.Özet
Integrating green approaches and digital marketing strategies for Information and Communication
Technologies (ICTs), which reduce environmental risks to desired levels by eliminating
emissions and pollution, is considered one of the most promising solutions for logistics companies.
The study strives to bring a practical and applicable solution to the decision problem involving the
selection of indicators for green approaches and digital marketing strategies for ICTs in the logistics
sector. An integrated Fermatean Fuzzy Step-wiseWeight Assessment Ratio Analysis (FF–SWARA)
and Fermatean Fuzzy Complex Proportional Assessment (FF–COPRAS) methodology is applied to
evaluate green approaches and digital marketing strategies. Concerning the findings, the foremost
criterion is “data management,” whereas the best strategy is “programmatic advertising.” To the
best of the authors’ knowledge, there is no other study that both offers a strategy selection for the
logistics industry and considers environmental protection, sustainability, digital transformation,
energy costs, and social and economic factors. The study is a part of ongoing research on productivity,
sustainability, the environment, digitization, recycling and estimating levels of waste reduction, as
well as business practices, competitiveness and ensuring employee satisfaction and resource efficiency.
Also, it investigates the similarities and dissimilarities in the green approach practices of business
in logistics and determines the extent to which these practices could be reflected. It is expected to
ensure a roadmap for green approach practices and to support sustainable and ecological awareness
efforts for ICTs in the logistics sector. Logistics companies can select an integrated digital strategy
based on green informatics that suits them using the decision model employed in this study, which
can handle uncertainties effectively. In this regard, the study’s findings, which focus on reaching
customers and the most precise target audience in digital applications for businesses, are critical for
developing strategy, plan and process.
