Processo de medição de desempenho em micro e pequenas empresas de um arranjo produtivo local

The local productive arrangements (LPA) are organizational mechanisms that enable the continuous performance of small businesses in production processes and business management models. To promote continuous improvement is essential that companies make decisions based on data that reflects business’ performance (performance measurement) and promote the cluster performance. This way, the aim of this article is to describe the performance measurement process that will support the corporate management of Micro and Small enterprises (SME) of a Local Productive Arrangement in Maringá, State of Paraná, Brazil. To develop this paper, the bibliographic search and action research methods were used. The field research was developed from the cooperation project (PROJVEST) conducted at the LPA, which goal is to deploy improvement actions in project’s participating companies. Metrics and performance indicators constructed from the diagnosis in the areas of Production, Quality and Ergonomics in companies will be presented. Among the main results, can be pointed out that the performance management of LPA is promoting the introduction of corporate management practices in SMEs, stimulating business cooperation, the continuous innovation in manufacturing processes and product quality and business processes.

Relações interorganizacionais e eficiência coletiva: um estudo de caso no arranjo produtivo local de confecções do Agreste de Pernambuco

This work is a study in the Local Productive Arrangement of confections from Agreste of Pernambuco, as a relevant sector in economic and social aspect. This research has as central aim to understand how the inter-organizational relations influence the collective efficiency of arrangement. The theoretical framework employed highlights the approaches that deal with the benefits of business agglomeration for the develop­ment of firms and regions. It has discussed the approach of small and medium enter­ prises and industrial districts (SCHMITZ, 1997), which introduce the concept of col­ lective efficiency, explaining that only those externalities explained by Marshall (1996) are not sufficient to explain the competitive advantage of enterprises, expand­ing the idea that organizations achieve competitive advantage not acting alone. To examine the influences of relations in the collective efficiency, it has been taken as analytical perspective theory of social networks (GRANOVETTER, 1973, 1985; BURT, 1992; UZZI, 1997) because it has believe that this approach provides subsi­ dies for a structural analysis of social relationships in face the behavior of human ac­tion. By examining the organizations in a social network, you should understand the reason of this establishment of the relationship, their benefits, and as the information flow takes place and density of links between the actors (Powell; SMITH-DOERR, 1994). As for the methods, this study is characterized as a case study, in according to the purposed objectives, in addition to qualitative method. Also, due to recovering of the historical milestones of the arrangement, it is used a sectional approach with longitudinal perspective (VIEIRA, 2004). The primary and secondary data were used in order to understand the evolutionary process of the sector and their inter-actors re­ lationships in the arrangement for the promotion of development, for both, was used the contend and documentary analysis technique, respectively (DELLAGNELO ; SIL­VA, 2005). The approach of social networks has permitted understand that social re­lationships may extend the collective efficiency of the arrangement, and therefore need to develop policies that encourage the legalization of informal companies in ar­rangement, by showing up themselves representative. Thus, the relations estab­ lished in LPA of confections from Agreste of Pernambuco need for more effective mechanisms to broaden the collective efficiency. Therefore, this way as take place has directly benefited only a group of companies that are linked in some way the sup­portive institutions. So we can conclude that the inter-actor relations have limited the collective efficiency of LPA, being stimulated by the institutions in support only to groups of entrepreneurs, even those that produce external relations for all clustered companies

Capital social e ações conjuntas: um estudo de caso no arranjo produtivo local de vinhos de altitude catarinense

The general goal of this study was to analyze the relations between the agents’ social capital and joint actions developed by the Cluster of wine produced at the high altitudes of Santa Catarina. This group is made up of 43 agents: one governing agent, 26 support agents and 16 winemakers. This descriptive and exploratory study uses data from qualitative and quantitative approaches. During the exploratory phase, a documental analysis was carried out, as well as semi-structured interviews. The data collection tool used to gather information concerning the social capital and joint actions was the semi-structured questionnaire, and this data gathering was conducted through field research using a structured interview with the selected agents from November 16 to November 26, 2015. The results of this study show a good social capital, which reflects on the joint actions done by the agents. Among the variables of social capital, trust shows a great level among the Cluster agents, followed by good levels concerning commitment and involvement, information share, rules and sanctions, horizontality and authority and improvement. As a result, it has created a nice level of involvement and effectiveness of joint actions, highlighting events organization, joint participation at fairs and events, marketing campaigns, development of products and processes, and human resources improvement. There is a small group of agents who show a strong social capital and a proper environment to expand this capital throughout the network. However, the evaluation concerning reciprocity and density represents only one third of the possibilities of this group, and it happens especially because of the geographical distance between the agents who are part of the Cluster. The main limitation of this study was the trouble trying to map the whole agent group before applying the questionnaires and identifying the responsible people in each of the support agents to inform everything correctly. It is suggested that these questionnaires be carried out with other Clusters as well as in the future in order to have a temporal assessment of this study.

ARRANJO PRODUTIVO LOCAL NO CONTEXTO DA DINÂMICA ESPACIAL URBANA

Objetiva-se com o presente artigo expor a relação que há entre a produção do espaço urbano e os Arranjos Produtivos Locais. Por meio de análise bibliográfica, procuramos explicitar como ocorre o processo de produção do espaço urbano e de que forma o APL, como um agente econômico, atua na produção do espaço urbano. Utilizamos como exemplo empírico o caso do APL de Franca. Entendemos o espaço urbano como produto e como condição para a reprodução das relações sociais de produção. É, portanto na produção desse espaço que concorrem diferentes atores, cada um defendendo seu interesse, sejam eles os donos do capital, o poder público e os próprios agentes sociais. Os APLs como agentes econômicos, atuam na produção do espaço urbano na medida em que o reestrutura, mobilizando os recursos materiais e imateriais necessários ao seu desenvolvimento produtivo, envolvendo várias instituições (públicas e privadas). Tomando como exemplo o APL de Franca, foi possível demonstrar tal relação, pois a atividade calçadista é de grande importância para o município, sendo responsável pelo desenvolvimento econômico local, pelo “status” que o município tem hoje, de capital do calçado masculino. Desse modo, a produção do espaço urbano de Franca deu-se por meio de grande influência do capital calçadista, sendo que esse espaço expressa uma estrutura de classe visível, pois foi produzido em razão de sua principal atividade econômica, a produção de calçados.

Redes de subcontratação e desenvolvimento local: a atuação da Albrás no arranjo produtivo de Barcarena

O projeto de ocupação econômica da Amazônia, que resultaria na sua integração ao sistema nacional, destinou vultosos recursos financeiros que beneficiaram os grandes projetos de exploração de recursos naturais da região, na perspectiva de que estes atuassem como pólos de irradiação do desenvolvimento econômico e social local. A Albras, como beneficiária dessa política, foi planejada para gerar recursos externos e para contribuir na dinamização da economia regional. Ao seu redor, no município de Barcarena, instalaramse várias empresas que compõem um arranjo produtivo cuja evolução precisa ser investigada. Esse arranjo de empresas, subcontratadas em função das estratégias de flexibilização da produção, é o objeto desta pesquisa, que busca identificar processos de cooperação, inovação e interação entre elas, na perspectiva de aferir a capacidade que este arranjo projeta de definir um processo de desenvolvimento endógeno na região.
