Resumo
This paper presents a study about structural and functional formation
conditions of Buyer – Supplier (BS) alliances in core mining production process
activities. The study of this possibility marks an evolution challenge to this
industry, traditionally not so sensitive to aspects related to network modularity
in business model provoked by modern economy acceleration. An empirical
research has been performed to validate construct formation and some previous
propositions needed to investigate a change in the current mode of maintenance
services supplier transactions to create additional value in process operations.
This study is contextualized in an environment that adopts a framework for
high-performance maturity management model for mineral process industry.
The investigation takes into account content analysis of economic, human,
technological and organizational dimensions as present capability. In sequence
it gives attention to conduct analysis considering Plan-Do-Chek-Learning
management life cycle involved in the supply process activities for a future
transactions maturity stage. This case study investigation attempts to examine
Buyer perspectives in the relationship change using survey and factorial
analysis with discriminating validation for construct indicator’s instantiation
and validation. This is needed in the way to find a decision-making model
considering the different perspectives of actual market driven mode of
transaction to future strategic alliances for sharing service systematization in
core operations. This study signalized some differences in BS comprehension for
questions of content knowledge and management methodology issues compared
with literature best practices. Results show that strategic alliance formation in
the mining production process activities is a perspective to be developed and
consolidated tanking in account new variables arrangement for identified
constructs to support advanced robust modeling studies
