ANALISIS Y MEDICION DE LA COMPETITIVIDAD DE LAS EMPRESAS DE AUTOTRANSPORTE DE CARGA

El objetivo de esta investigacion busca identificar y medir el impacto de los factores que merman la competitividad de las empresas del autotransporte de carga. Se sabe bien que el desempeno empresarial de este sector juega un papel muy importante en su competitividad, y que a su vez, es de gran relevancia para la economia nacional. Para llevar a cabo este proyecto, se recurrio a la revision de la literatura especializada para conocer como ha sido evaluada la competitividad y los factores que la sustentan. Esta tecnica, permitio identificar el estado del arte de los estudios dirigidos al tema de la competitividad en general y del autotransporte nacional de carga, encontrando muy poca, pero sustancial literatura que aborda este sector. Por lo anterior, el enfoque de este proyecto se oriento a la gestion logistica de los servicios de trasporte, desde la perspectiva de los factores internos que influyen en su competitividad. Como resultado de los analisis, se derivo una metodologia que mide cada uno de los factores identificados y determina el indice de Competitividad Empresarial del Autotransporte (ICEA). Como linea de futuro, se plantea desarrollar un sistema nacional de medicion para conocer el nivel de competitividad del sector y subsectores. Abstract: The aim of this research was to identify and measure the impact of the features which currently are reducing competitiveness in trucking companies running operations in Mexico. Management capabilities of these companies play a substantial role not only for their own competitiveness, but also for the country's economic performance. Based on this context, a large literature review was performed to state how competitiveness in trucking companies has been evaluated through time, and what factors support it. Consequently, a number of documents analyzing competitiveness from a general perspective were identified, but only a few documents studying competitiveness of trucking companies in Mexico were found. Thus, our efforts were focused on the logistics management of transport services, from a special emphasis on internal factors that influence trucking companies’ competitiveness. As a result, we propose a methodology that allows measuring each of the identified factors, and define a Trucking Business Competitiveness Index (ICEA). As a next step, a national measurement system of trucking companies is proposed.
