Estado e internacionalização das empresas multilatinas

O livro procura compreender o fenômeno de internacionalização das empresas e grupos econômicos com origem e consolidação nos países latino-americanos, especialmente do Brasil, Argentina, Chile e México, que vêm captando crescente volume de Investimentos Estrangeiros Diretos (IED) por meio de um número bastante significativo de empresas grandes e médias. De acordo com o autor, trata-se de um movimento de pouco mais de cem anos e com vários pontos de inflexão, que sinaliza a tendência de ampliação das escalas espaciais de acumulação desses capitais particulares multilatinos, embora de maneira desigual. Argentina e Brasil, por exemplo, alternaram-se na liderança dos estoques e fluxos de capitais produtivos realizados até os anos 1980. Desde então, México e Chile incrementaram sua relevância regional, ao passo que a Argentina apresentou uma significativa redução. As condições políticas e econômicas ao longo da história recente desses quatro países são também analisadas no livro. Uns mais, outros menos, eles levaram a cabo políticas de substituição das importações - com distintas intensidades - e promoveram, em diferentes momentos, políticas neoliberais de abertura econômica desenfreada, de desregulamentação financeira, de privatização e concessão de empresas públicas, entre outras, que influenciaram diretamente as estratégias corporativas dos grupos econômicos locais e a estrutura industrial

Fluxos de informação que subsidiam o processo de inteligência competitiva

Information flows are responsible for the dynamics and the interaction between the various sectors of the organization and among individuals who work in it. By mapping performed in internal and external environments of the organization, it is possible to highlight the informational needs of organizational individual, since they depend on data, information and knowledge to perform their actions in the corporate environment. To meet the information needs of organizational individual need to manage the existing information flows, how it can settle and move effectively in the organizational environment. It is argued that the environments and existing information flows in an organization, subsidize the process of organizational competitive intelligence, since they are inputs for decision making and enable the planning and execution of actions in the short, medium and long term.

Precificação no Setor de serviço

Given the competitive reality of the globalized market, companies are compelled to develop strategic aspects of the management process, in order to ensure their survival. Among the strategic aspects is the price formation process, whose reasoning occurs mainly of adoption through cost system. Knowledge of costs and expenses provides conditions for the company to position itself strategically in the market, being able to follow the price of competition and sometimes even surpass them, called, more and more attention with regard to price formation. This study aims to identify the best price to be transferred to the market. To this end, were approached concept of pricing and its components, their strategies and pricing objectives, as well as the influence of demand on price formation, as well as the added value the brand and quality; and even a careful analysis of the price established by the said company in the service offered. We used the method of literature review and case study in the company ESA international aeronautical industry. Thus, we sought to explain about the main concepts for pricing in order to support decision making

Decisão making or buying: uma aplicação em células de manufatura de uma indústria de produção mecânica

In order to maintain the competitiveness the companies seek for cost reduction and resource optimization. A product or service price is calculated considering direct and indirect costs involved in its fabrication, which means that if an intern indirect process is optimized, the final price of the product is also reduced and becomes more interesting to the final costumer. Considering this reasoning, the companies must evaluate each of their processes and optimize them. It is common to outsource intern products manufacturing as a cost reduction strategy, nevertheless when there are already resources and capability to produce the own goods, it becomes necessary to evaluate the economic gain that each strategy - make or buy - generates. This paper aims to evaluate the necessary support to take a decision regarding making or buying in a production cell of hoses based in the value of economic cost, system cost and decision process

Nas trilhas da democracia: reflexões comparativas entre a Espanha e o Brasil

The article searches to launch some analyses and investigations on the historical reach of produced participative processes in Spain and Brazil. Evidently, both the processes if had uncurled in historical, social, economic contexts and distinct politicians, but, exactly thus, keep some approaches that we intend to give prominence in the present article. How much to the dismantlement of the State of social welfare, we present, still, that in the case of Spain occurred a decentralization of its formulator power to decide arrangement of public politics that started to count on the participation of social actors in the called relational city (BECERRA, 2011). In the case of Brazil, the dictatorial period (1964-1985), the fast urban growth and the generation of precarious peripheries in the main cities, the distension and the Constituent (1986-1988) had generated the enough forces of pressure so that, gradually, if it incorporated the participative arrangement in the power to decide process.

O transporte público no município de Araraquara: origem, crise e as tramas da proposta de privatização da Companhia de Trólebus de Araraquara - C.T.A

For decades the Companhia Tróleibus de Araraquara was a national reference in public transportion, but in recent years it is in a process of bankruptcy and scrapping, characteristics of privatizing processes that has been occurring worldwide since the rise of neoliberal ideas. This monography is centered on the finance analysis of CTA to investigate what reasons led the public company to come in the current financial scenario, what are the interests that exist to privatize a public company and which consequences the sale of the of public companies have for a country of subordinate capitalism like Brazil. Most Brazilian cities are in an urban collapse due to the lack of public policies for public transportation and bulky incentives for private transportation. Furthermore, this monography aims to contribute for the study of urban mobility and point out if privatization is a way to improve life in the cities

Aplicação de métodos com múltiplos critérios em uma empresa petroquímica

The corporate world is increasingly competitive, and companies need to go deep into the routines and work them in order to understand them fully. The market is demanding more than simple improvements that bring advances - of small or great expression; however, in a longer term it will no longer meet the ideology of the market. Companies aimed at the world class must focus on projects that will continually bring returns to the company. As previously mentioned, understanding the processes in minute details is of paramount importance, as this knowledge can be acquired by analyzing the decisions that are necessary during the process. Once the complexity increases, the quantity and difficulty of the criteria that influence them grow accordingly. At this time, methods and tools that assist decisionmaking processes can be used as, besides being able to provide the best decision methods of MCDA (Multiple Criteria Decision Aid), they provide clear and assertive understanding of the whole decision process. In developing this study, we sought to explore the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method (a MCDA method) in the choice of access service, featured by the support service used to reach and be the basis of repairs in places of difficult access. This work proposes a study of the quantitative modeling approach in a real routine activity for a Brazilian petrochemical company. Decision-making processes are explored when we seek to analyze not only the decision makers but also what directly influences them on the use of the AIJ method. Once this is achieved, the understanding of decision-making is substantiated

Avaliação do software Autodesk Revit 2016 para quantificação por meio da modelagem da informação da construção

The building budgeting quickly and accurately is a challenge faced by the companies in the sector. The cost estimation process is performed from the quantity takeoff and this process of quantification, historically, through the analysis of the project, scope of work and project information contained in 2D design, text files and spreadsheets. This method, in many cases, present itself flawed, influencing the making management decisions, once it is closely coupled to time and cost management. In this scenario, this work intends to make a critical analysis of conventional process of quantity takeoff, from the quantification through 2D designs, and with the use of the software Autodesk Revit 2016, which uses the concepts of building information modeling for automated quantity takeoff of 3D model construction. It is noted that the 3D modeling process should be aligned with the goals of budgeting. The use of BIM technology programs provides several benefits compared to traditional quantity takeoff process, representing gains in productivity, transparency and assertiveness

Determinantes da separação entre propriedade e gestão nas cooperativas agropecuárias brasileiras

As cooperativas agropecuárias brasileiras geralmente são organizações complexas e de propriedade difusa. Entretanto, 48% dessas organizações não promovem a desvinculação dos proprietários das decisões de gestão, contrariando o que é estabelecido pelo preceito teórico dominante para empresas - cooperativas e não cooperativas - similares. Diante desse desalinhamento, neste artigo investigaram-se os possíveis determinantes da separação entre propriedade e gestão nessas organizações. Na medida em que o processo de separação compreende diferentes relações de agência, foram utilizados respectivamente os modelos logit e tobit para estudar o que determina a delegação do direito de controle formal pelos proprietários ao conselho de administração e a divisão do processo decisório entre os membros do conselho e o executivo responsável pela gestão. Dentre os resultados encontrados, destaca-se o fato de complexidade e propriedade difusa não terem se mostrado relevantes para explicar a separação entre propriedade e gestão, diferentemente do que ocorre em sociedades anônimas. Em contrapartida, características do conselho de administração (tamanho, alocação de autoridade formal, limites à reeleição, reputação e esforço) têm importante papel na determinação da ocorrência de separação. Por tratar-se do primeiro trabalho a abordar o problema do controle em cooperativas agropecuárias, novas pesquisas empíricas são desejáveis.
