Abstract(s)
Numa era caracterizada por frequentes eventos disruptivos, a resiliência das
cadeias de abastecimento surgiu como um fator determinante para o sucesso empresarial.
Esta dissertação apresenta um estudo de caso que explora a resiliência das cadeias de
abastecimento no contexto de ambientes disruptivos. Os principais objectivos do estudo
abrangem duas facetas: em primeiro lugar, uma análise aprofundada dos problemas
decorrentes de acontecimentos perturbadores na empresa alvo de estudo, juntamente com
uma analise das estratégias utilizadas para enfrentar esses desafios; em segundo lugar, o
mapeamento parcial da cadeia de abastecimento da empresa.
Esta investigação procura responder a questões fundamentais relacionadas com a
resposta da empresa a eventos perturbadores, a eficácia das medidas de mitigação
adoptadas e o reforço global da resiliência e preparação da empresa para futuras
perturbações.
Através de metodologias qualitativas, incluindo entrevistas com os principais
intervenientes em logística, aprovisionamento e planeamento, a investigação gira em
torno da questão central: "Quais são os fatores-chave que contribuem para a resiliência
da cadeia de abastecimento face a eventos disruptivos?". Foram formuladas três hipóteses
para validar este inquérito, relativas à diversificação, integração tecnológica e
comunicação e coordenação efectiva.
O estudo conclui que a diversificação das fontes de abastecimento e dos modos
de transporte, a incorporação de tecnologias preditivas e os mecanismos de coordenação
robustos entre os parceiros da cadeia de abastecimento contribuem de forma significativa
para a resiliência da cadeia de abastecimento. Os conhecimentos recolhidos nas
entrevistas confirmam a capacidade da empresa não só para enfrentar as perturbações,
mas também para promover o crescimento e uma maior resiliência. Esta investigação
serve apenas de guia estratégico para empresas que pretendem fortalecer as suas cadeias
de abastecimento, no entanto sugere-se uma investigação mais aprofundada quer na
cadeia de abastecimento da empresa em foco, quer em cadeias de abastecimentos de
outras áreas de atividade.
In an era characterised by frequent disruptive events, the resilience of supply chains has emerged as a determining factor for business success. This dissertation presents a case study that explores the resilience of supply chains in the context of disruptive environments. The main objectives of the study cover two facets: firstly, an in depth analysis of the problems arising from disruptive events in the company under study, together with an analysis of the strategies used to deal with these challenges; secondly, the mapping of the company's supply chain. This research seeks to answer fundamental questions relating to the company's response to disruptive events, the effectiveness of the mitigation measures adopted and the overall strengthening of the company's resilience and preparedness for future disruptions. Using qualitative methodologies, including interviews with key players in logistics, procurement and planning, the research revolves around the central question: "What are the key factors that contribute to supply chain resilience in the face of disruptive events?". Three hypotheses were formulated to validate this enquiry, relating to diversification, technological integration and effective communication and coordination. The study concludes that the diversification of supply sources and modes of transport, the incorporation of predictive technologies and robust coordination mechanisms between supply chain partners make a significant contribution to supply chain resilience. The knowledge gathered in the interviews confirms the company's ability not only to cope with disruption, but also to promote growth and greater resilience. This research only serves as a strategic guide for companies wishing to strengthen their supply chains, but further research is suggested into both the supply chain of the company in question and supply chains in other areas of activity.
