Evaluating Sustainable Technologies in Air Cargo through Digital Transformation

Celal Havle, with a scholar from Galatasaray University addressed the critical role of sustainability within the context of digital transformation, reflecting the increasing focus of global economic contributors on sustainable practices. Amid rapid technological advancements, companies worldwide began integrating digital technologies into their sustainability strategies. This shift underscored the need for businesses, especially those undergoing transformation, to invest in technologies that promote sustainable practices. 

Notably, the expansion of digital transformation has fueled a global increase in e-commerce, which has, in turn, heightened the size and complexity of supply chain networks. The air cargo industry emerged as a pivotal player in this network, influencing the sustainability of economic, social, and environmental aspects on a global scale. Recognizing this, the study proposed a model for evaluating sustainable future technologies within the air cargo sector, viewed through the lens of digital transformation. 

A multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach was used, employing the intuitionistic fuzzy analytical network process (IF ANP) to validate the proposed model. This validation was conducted within the Turkish air cargo industry, highlighting how advanced decisionmaking techniques can support responsible and sustainable innovations in air cargo, aligning closely with SDG 12’s goal of fostering more sustainable production and consumption patterns.
