Abstract: In times of globally connected production networks, supply chain management is a key discipline of modern living. Due to increasing commodity prizes and a greater awareness of resource efficiency, the relevance of international reverse supply chains is increasing. Unfortunately, there is a lack of knowledge when it comes to the assessment of international reverse supply chains. To close this lack, scientists from Bayreuth defined a performance measurement system to assess international reverse supply chains. The aim of this paper is to support the Circular Economy and the remanufacturing industry with an approach to optimize international reverse supply chains and thus to become more sustainable.
