There is a growing level of commitment among both small and midsize US firms toward the adoption of applications that would support more environmentally friendly supply-chain initiatives, IDC said in a report today.
IDC is a Framingham firm that provides IT market intelligence.
"While the social responsibility for establishing green initiatives is now generally regarded as the norm for European companies, US firms have been slow to embrace the technologies that would support this effort,"Judy Hodges, manager of IDC's Small and Medium Business Markets: Enterprise Applications research service, said in a statement. "However, in our most recent IDC AppStats Survey,we find that small and midsize manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors in the United States are on the path toward leveraging innovative technologies to support a green supply chain."
