Objetivo: Este producto técnico-tecnológico tuvo como objetivo desarrollar una sistemática para la medición del grado de madurez del proceso de compras en empresas que operan en la industria de la Construcción civil.
Contexto y metodología: Con respecto al proceso, fue desarrollado por intermedio de estudio de casos múltiples en cuatro constructoras de medio porte, que actúan en el ramo de obras de vivienda verticales en la ciudad de Balneario Camboriú, Brasil, a través de cuestionario estructurado, junto a los gestores de compras de las empresas.
Diagnóstico: Los resultados indicaron que todas las empresas analizadas poseen un grado de madurez en el proceso de compras nivel 4, o sea, las prácticas están implantadas formalmente y son utilizadas de forma efectiva.
Implicaciones prácticas: Desde el punto de vista práctico, el sistema se propone a auxiliar las empresas de construcción civil en el análisis y definición de prioridades para mejorar la madurez del sector de compras.
Aplicabilidad: El sistema propuesto puede ser aplicado en empresas de construcción civil de medio porte.
Replicabilidad: El sistema propuesto podrá ser aplicado en constructoras de otros portes, así como en diferentes ramos de actuación, como constructoras de obras horizontales, obras viales, infraestructura. En este caso, algunas prácticas deberán ser adecuadas al ramo deseado.
Innovación: Este trabajo resulta inédito al desarrollar un sistema de medición del grado de madurez específico para el proceso de compras en la construcción, un área de gran importancia en las empresas y que demanda gran flujo financiero.
