The competition in the telecommunications industry has grown in Brazil since the privatization, forcing companies that are active in the market to a growing commitment to quality products and services in order to survive. In this context, this work aims to understand the main factors that influence the degree of satisfaction exists in respect of a mobile operator with its corporate customers. The research covered theoretical concepts and analytical models of quality management system and models of indices related to the measurement of customer satisfaction. For the field research was carried out in a practical application of the main approaches based on this thesis by a case study in corporate segment, through a questionnaire applied to 10 consultants and 40 corporate customers of that company. Comparing the results of research with the consultants and corporate clients there is the concern of respondents to the indicators that comprise the constructs of customer satisfaction, commitment calculated, the price index and the handling of complaints, denoting the dissatisfaction of the general assessment for corporate customers with the carrier, against its current expectations. It is concluded that the mobile operator of the telecommunications industry have a big challenge, after ten years of privatization and consequently the period of rapid expansion of customer base and with the depleted, retain corporate customers as highly strategic, thus avoiding that migrate to other companies. We emphasize the need for further research and analysis of different approaches through research and using the same models to specifically evaluate and measure customer satisfaction of mobile enterprise, to adjust the model to the national market.

Este trabalho foi realizado com os objetivos de avaliar a influência de fatores ambientais e estimar a herdabilidade para a característica intervalo desmame-cio (IDC) de fêmeas suínas. Para isso, utilizaram-se 1.032 observações de 347 porcas Dalland (C-40), pertencentes a dois rebanhos. No modelo, incluíram-se como aleatórios os efeitos do pai e da mãe da porca e, como fixos, os efeitos do ano de parto, do rebanho e da estação de parição, bem como as co-variáveis idade da porca ao parto, tamanho da leitegada ao nascer e período de lactação. As estimativas dos componentes de variância e do parâmetro genético foram obtidas utilizando-se o aplicativo MTDFREML, que emprega a metodologia da máxima verossimilhança restrita livre de derivadas. A média foi de 5,3 dias, com um coeficiente de variação de 71,44%. O período de lactação teve influência linear sobre o IDC. do mesmo modo, a regressão quadrática do IDC em relação à idade da porca ao parto foi significativa. O pai e a mãe foram importantes fontes de variação no intervalo desmame-cio, que, provavelmente pelo fato de acontecer tardiamente na vida do animal, não foi influenciado pelo rebanho, pelo ano e pela estação. A estimativa de herdabilidade para o primeiro intervalo desmame-cio foi de 0,11, o que indica que esta característica não apresentaria ganho genético satisfatório como resposta à seleção individual.

Dados de 23.251 animais da raça Nelore desmamados no período de 1994 a 1997, pertencentes à Agropecuária Jacarezinho Ltda., foram analisados para se avaliar os efeitos ambientais da idade da vaca, data de nascimento e idade à desmama sobre os escores visuais de conformação (C), precocidade (P) e musculatura (M). Todos os efeitos estudados influenciaram significativamente os escores visuais. As análises indicaram que as vacas que pariram aos sete, oito e nove anos, obtiveram os melhores resultados para os escores visuais de C, P e M, assim como os animais que nasceram mais cedo dentro da estação de parição. Para a idade à desmama foi constatado que, quanto mais tarde o animal for desmamado, melhores serão seus escores. Os animais que desmamaram com 220 dias tiveram os melhores escores, enquanto os piores escores foram daqueles que desmamaram com 140 dias. Portanto, para se ter maior precisão na avaliação genética dos indivíduos jovens, fatores de correção para idade da vaca, data juliana de nascimento e idade à desmama devem ser utilizados sobre os escores de conformação, precocidade e musculatura.

Neste estudo, após a edição dos dados, foram utilizadas 87.372 informações de escores visuais de conformação (C), precocidade (P) e musculatura (M) à desmama de animais Nelore, provenientes de rebanhos comerciais. Os objetivos, neste trabalho, foram estudar os efeitos da idade da vaca ao parto (IDV), data Juliana de nascimento (DJN) e idade à desmama (ID) sobre C, P e M e estimar os fatores de correção para os mesmos. Os modelos utilizados incluíram os efeitos fixos de grupo contemporâneo (rebanho, retiro, ano e mês de nascimento, sexo e grupo de manejo ao nascimento e à desmama) e, como covariáveis, os efeitos de idade da vaca (para cada sexo do bezerro), de data juliana de nascimento e da idade do bezerro à desmama. Para a idade da vaca, usou-se um polinômio segmentado quadrático-quadrático. Para a data juliana de nascimento, foi utilizado um polinômio segmentado com três segmentos quadráticos, enquanto, para a idade do bezerro à desmama, foi empregado um polinômio ordinário quadrático. Todos os efeitos considerados no modelo influenciaram significativamente os escores visuais. A simples inclusão da estação ou do mês de nascimento no grupo contemporâneo não foi suficiente para corrigir diferenças em escores decorrentes do efeito da data de nascimento. Para avaliação genética dos animais para escores visuais à desmama, os mesmos devem ser ajustados para idade da vaca ao parto, data juliana de nascimento e idade do bezerro à desmama.

A competitividade portuária intensificou-se a partir dos anos 1980/90, influenciada pelo aumento no comércio internacional e pelas reformas portuárias que se seguiram. Entre os fatores que a determinam, há alguns que estão acima do poder de atuação de um dado porto, como a concessão de subsídios governamentais em portos de países ou estados concorrentes. Consideram-se três áreas em que um porto pode atuar para modificar sua posição competitiva: infra-estrutura, operações e facilitação ao comércio através do porto. Foi realizada uma pesquisa sobre trinta e oito fatores intervenientes na competitividade dos portos, agrupados em seis conjuntos, relacionados dois a dois às três áreas mencionadas. A pesquisa examinou a relevância dos trinta e oito fatores para a competitividade portuária através de questionários apresentados a sessenta usuários de portos nordestinos com vinculação passada, presente ou potencial pelo porto de Natal. Complementarmente pesquisou a opinião desses usuários sobre a competitividade dos cinco portos inseridos no estudo de caso: Fortaleza (CE), Natal (RN), Pecém (CE), Salvador (BA) e Suape (PE). Os resultados obtidos destacaram a importância conferida pelos usuários à agilidade na liberação aduaneira, a fatores relacionados à utilização de contêineres e ao calado do porto. Os usuários foram consultados entre abril e maio de 2004 e consideraram Pecém (CE) como o porto mais competitivo entre os cinco
