RESEARCH OF THE SLP METHOD TO IMPROVE THE LAYOUT OF AN ICE CREAM FACTORY

The problems of physical arrangement for the organizations are relevant when have space and material movements limitations. Reviewing layouts is a way to improve the industrial production process. Therefore, the objective of this present academic work is to propose a layout for an ice cream factory's production, considering analysis of alternatives to increase productivity. The Systematic Layout Planning (SLP) Simplified method was used as the main tool for the construction of the layout proposal. A case study was carried out which investigates a phenomenon within a real context through an in-depth analysis of a study object. The method was used systematically and validated from the fifth step, where a qualitative comparation between the current layout and the alternative submitted. As a result, is achieved an optimized, complete, detailed layout plan that reduces 21,30% of the factory handling cost.

ANALYSIS OF ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL INVESTMENT VIABILITY: APPLIED TECHNOLOGY IN MILK PRODUCTION

The improvement in the quality of life, together with the reduction of downtime in milk production, is the result of the technology invested and the consequent changes required by the milk production chain. Thus, the present study, carried out on a small property in the northwest of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, verified the feasibility for the acquisition of a new and modern milking model, through the financial analysis of investments. The research is classified as a single case study, with a quantitative approach. The suggested investment has several positive points, such as the possibility of flexibility in working hours and better quality of life for the producer, elimination of outsourced labor, easy handling of milking, definition of strategies, animal welfare, recovery investment and others. On the other hand, there are currently scenarios that hinder this improvement, such as the dependence on a stable electric power network and the maintenance distance in cases of emergency. The property under study is in a business environment conducive to innovation, which aims to improve the quality of life of the producer and increase revenue.

INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCESSES: THE CASE OF A SMALL FAMILY BUSINESS

The present study aims to analyze the institutionalization of personnel recruitment and selection processes in a small family business. In order to achieve the proposed objective, a case study was carried out in a company in the food trade branch located in the northwest of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. As a data collection technique, a semi-structured interview and observation of the location was used. The data were analyzed using Bardin's content analysis. The results demonstrated that the institutionalization of the recruitment and selection processes of people is directly related to the performance of the owner of this enterprise, being that he is responsible for coordinating the actions that define the requirements for the vacancy, the form of disclosure and the interview of selection. The standards implicit in the company are typical of the small family business, where family members assume the role of managing different areas of the organization. It was suggested that further research be carried out in small companies in other Brazilian locations, in order to expand the discussions addressed by the present study.

GRANTS FOR INNOVATION IN ESPÍRITO SANTO

Innovations are sources of competitive advantage for companies, regions, and countries. At the beginning of this century, the growth of the public sector's participation in financing innovation was observed in Brazil. With the regulation of the Brazilian Innovation Law in 2005, the Governments started to execute grants for innovation, meaning non-reimbursable financial support to companies in order to develop innovative activities, in partnership with the Federal Government. In 2013, the Government of Espírito Santo State, performed the grants in the state, through TECNOVA-ES Program. A total of R$13.5 million has been injected into 38 companies with the aim of developing innovative products and services to expand the competitiveness of these companies. This article evaluates the impacts of TECNOVA-ES with emphasis on the commercialization of products/services. The main results revealed 27 companies participating in the evaluation (71% of the population) have developed 65 products, of which 46 have reached the market, resulting in a commercialization rate of 70%. In terms of turnover, more than 55% of the companies participating in this study had no impact on their turnover due to TECNOVA-ES. However, the program allowed almost 15% of the companies participating in the evaluation to increase their revenues by more than 100%. Future studies are recommended to evaluate the impacts of TECNOVA-ES considering other variables such as cooperation relations, social and environmental impacts.
