The opinions of these experts have been extracted through an online questionnaire that was based on six alternatives along with four criteria. The tool of multi criteria decision making (MCDM) that is a Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) has been used to analyze the results.,Six alternatives that have been used for this study are green design, green procurement, green production, green warehousing, green transportation and green recycling. The top ranked alternative as a practice for GSCM is green warehousing followed by green production. The lowest ranked alternative in this study is green recycling. The alternatives have been ranked on the basis of "cc" values derived through TOPSIS.,As the advancement in the construction industry will definitely going to impact the environmental sustainability of the country, the results derived through this research will assist the managers of the construction industry of Pakistan to adopt best practices among green supply chain in order to lower their impact.,Framework using TOPSIS in order to find the best GSCM practice in Pakistan has not been reported before this study.
