The study begins with an overview of Amazon's organizational profile and a summary of the SPRI project.

Project closure and evaluation processes are discussed, focusing on documentation, knowledge transfer, evaluation of project objectives, stakeholder feedback, and the use of the Balanced Scorecard framework for performance measurement.

Throughout the study, various analytical tools including PESTEL, SWOT, and STC analyses are employed to provide a comprehensive understanding of Amazon's SPRI initiative within the broader context of sustainable business practices and environmental stewardship.
