Lineamientos para la estandarización y planeación del proceso administrativo en las áreas de mantenimiento y compras de Megaconstrucciones del Caribe S.A.S.

Abstract

Objectives: To propose an administrative planning model for the maintenance and procurement functions at Megaconstrucciones del Caribe S.A.S.. It seeks to optimize resources, ensure fleet mechanical availability, and stabilize financial liquidity following accelerated growth. Content: The study addresses the administrative maturity crisis resulting from a 1,217% increase in revenue between 2021 and 2024. It includes a gap diagnosis , the reconfiguration of technical profiles , and the design of the Synchronized Administrative Planning Model (MPAS). Methodology: A mixed qualitative-quantitative approach with a descriptive-propositive scope was employed. Data collection included documentary analysis, surveys, and interviews with a census sample of 25 key employees. The design is based on the Theory of Constraints (TOC) and the PDCA cycle. Results: A digital ecosystem was developed for real-time tracking of hour meters and technical failures. An ABC-VED matrix was established for MRO inventory management , along with a battery of six Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for management monitoring. Discussion: It is concluded that "liquidity anesthesia" and reactive management eroded cash flow by 98.8%. Standardization is a financial necessity to protect fixed assets valued at $1.133 billion. Conclusions: The MPAS model achieves operational synchronization between maintenance and procurement, eliminating bottlenecks. The implementation projects the release of $970 million in working capital and a 10% improvement in Effective Mechanical Availability (DME).
