From the results of the study, it is observed that due to
competition in the market, every industry is aware of the latest
technology in their field to improve their development through
satisfying customers and maintaining a good relationship with
them. Category of pressure is ranked with the help of the AHP pairwise
comparison matrix (Table 3) and weightage. Each pressure
category is summarized. It is clearly evident that External source
(E) pressure category acts as an important category with a high
weightage (0.3448) compared to other three categories. It is
pointed out that, external sources ensure more pressures to adopt
GSCM in mining and mineral industries. Also, the results barrier
category indicates that the Financial factor (F) is a less important
category among the pressures.
