No. of bitstreams: 1 Antonio Carlos Sanches Tavares.pdf: 2287385 bytes, checksum: cf9b93f25f6c9028458bca9468381dda (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-02-24 / The adoption of green initiatives in supply chains is a basic requirement in the relationship between companies, which must take over the principles of environmental management, involving three important focuses: environment, strategy and logistics. Besides, this type of approach also seeks competitive advantages from better integration with the supplier network, greater acceptance of environmentally friendly products and the reduction of costs. The use of packaging is of great importance for society as it plays fundamental roles such as to guarantee the quality of the product and commercialize it. In this set of circumstances, there is also concern about the final destination of the packages and the impacts they cause on the environment. The purpose of this research is to verify if the adoption of green initiatives in the packaging supply chain affects the Environmental, Economic and Operational results of the companies participating in this chain, according to the perception of professionals who work at these companies. The study was conducted through a survey type research for professionals of different hierarchical levels who work at Brazilian industries in the packaging supply chain. It is a quantitative research, the answers were analyzed through statistical techniques. It is important to highlight that this research counts on the institutional support of ABRE - Brazilian Association of Packaging. The results pointed out in general, according to the professionals interviewed, that it is not possible to show that the adoption of green initiatives influence the achievement of Environmental, Economic and Operational results. The only exception found is the Green Purchase Initiative influencing the Environmental Performance of companies in this Supply Chain. / A adoção de iniciativas verdes nas cadeias de suprimentos é requisito básico no relacionamento entre as empresas, as quais devem assumir os princípios da gestão ambiental, envolvendo três focos importantes: meio ambiente, estratégia e logística. Além disso, este tipo de abordagem também visa a vantagens competitivas a partir da melhor integração com a rede de fornecedores, maior aceitação de produtos ecologicamente corretos e redução de custos. O uso das embalagens é de grande importância para a sociedade, pois elas desempenham muitas funções fundamentais tanto para garantir a qualidade do produto quanto para comercializá-lo. Nesse conjunto de circunstâncias, surge também a preocupação com a destinação final das embalagens e com os impactos que elas provocam ao meio ambiente. Por se tratar de um tema com tal relevância e pouco explorado no Brasil, o objetivo desta pesquisa é verificar se, de fato, a adoção das iniciativas verdes na cadeia de suprimentos de embalagens afeta os resultados ambientais, econômicos e operacionais das empresas participantes dessa cadeia, segundo a percepção dos profissionais que nelas atuam. O estudo foi conduzido por meio de uma pesquisa tipo survey, encaminhada para profissionais de diversos níveis hierárquicos que atuam em indústrias brasileiras da cadeia de suprimentos de embalagens. Trata-se de uma pesquisa quantitativa, cujas respostas foram analisadas por meio de técnicas estatísticas. É importante destacar que esta pesquisa conta com o apoio institucional da Associação Brasileira de Embalagens (ABRE). Os resultados apontaram de um modo geral, segundo a visão dos profissionais entrevistados, que não é possível evidenciar que a adoção de iniciativas verdes influencia a obtenção de resultados ambientais, econômicos e operacionais. A única exceção encontrada é a Iniciativa de Compras Verdes influenciando o desempenho ambiental das empresas dessa cadeia de suprimentos.

The process industries span multiple industrial sectors and constitute a substantial part of the entire manufacturing industry. Since companies belonging to this family of industries are often very asset intensive, their ability to respond to changes is often limited in the short term. The adaptation of the capabilities of existing processes, and conversely finding products and market segments to match the production system capabilities, are an important part of product- and market development activities in the process industry. The importance to companies in the process industry of having a well-articulated manufacturing strategy congruent with the business strategy is second to none. However, to facilitate manufacturing strategy developments, it is essential to start with an improved characterization and understanding of the material transformation system. To that end an extensive set of variables was developed and related measures and scales were defined. The resulting configuration model, focusing on company generic process capabilities in the process industries, is to be regarded as a conceptual taxonomy and as a proposition available for further testing. The usability of the model was subsequently assessed using “mini-cases” in the forestry industry, where the respondents confirmed that the company’s overall strategy could benefit from this kind of platform as a possible avenue to follow. The model was deployed as an instrument in the profiling of company material transformation systems to facilitate the further development of companies' functional and business strategies. The use of company-generic production capabilities was studied in three case companies representing the mineral, food and steel industries. The model was found by the respondents to be usable as a knowledge platform to develop production strategies. In the final analysis of the research results, a new concept emerged called “production capability configuration": A process-industrial company’s alignment of its generic production capabilities in the areas of raw materials, process technology and products to improve the consistency among the variable elements that define operations and improve the congruence between operations and its environment. From the perspective of value creation and capture, firms must be able to manufacture products in a competitive cost structure within the framework of a proper business model. By using the configuration model, the relationship between manufacturing and innovation activities has been studied in the previously mentioned three case studies. In many cases the gap in capability appears as a limitation in the production system, requiring development efforts and sometimes investments to overcome. This is illustrated with two examples from the steel industry, where development efforts of the production system capabilities are initiated to better match the market demands. One example is the increase the volume- and product flexibility of an existing stainless steel melt shop, resulting in a proposed oblong Argon Oxygen Decarburisation (AOD) converter configuration that was subsequently verified using water modelling. The second example is from a carbon steel mill, where the target was to increase the raw material- and volume flexibility of another melt shop, by modifying the capabilities of the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF). Enabling EAF technologies are further described and evaluated using operational data and engineering type of estimates. / <p>QC 20170116</p>
