Indicador de sostenibilidad para la selección y evaluación de proveedores de servicios de telecomunicaciones de Entel

Las empresas organizadas de más de 500 empleados, con cierto grado de madurez y cultura organizacional, suelen disponer de planes, políticas y normas que le permiten una gestión sostenible dentro de sus propias fronteras. Sin embargo, en el contexto BANI del entorno empresarial, exacerbado por los efectos de la pandemia, han visto como su cadena de suministros se vuelven vulnerables y sin herramientas para responder a una ausencia disruptiva de bienes y servicios. Esta situación se acentúa en empresas de telecomunicaciones donde la demanda del servicio ha crecido de manera exponencial y requieren de una infraestructura amplia y costosa para poder cubrirla. Ante esta situación, las empresas han optado por tener un fuerte soporte de proveedores estratégicos que, siendo PYME, han crecido tecnológicamente y dan una propuesta de valor atractiva, rápida y eficaz. Sin embargo, el crecimiento orgánico de éstas las lleva a desempeñarse bajo un esquema de bajo nivel de cumplimiento en cuanto a aspectos de sostenibilidad, lo cual no es socialmente responsable y sostenible. En consecuencia, en esta consultoría se desarrolló una modelo que permite establecer un indicador de sostenibilidad mediante evaluación del proveedor y su posterior selección bajo los criterios de sostenibilidad planteados en la ISO 20400. Utilizando métodos de toma de decisiones multicriterio (MCDM), permite elegir entre varias alternativas, las que mejor responden a los criterios establecidos, de esta forma se tiene una herramienta que ayuda a definir el desarrollo de las PYME que soportan a las grandes empresas estableciendo los elementos de mayor criticidad y prioridad de atención. Además, que las vuelve más competitivas, innovadoras, y ambiental y socialmente sostenibles. Esta propuesta es viable, deseable, factible y relacionada con los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) 8, 9 y 13, favoreciendo al entorno y a la sociedad. Con una inversión de S/. 77.38 k genera un VAN de S/. 248.4 k y un TIR de 34% en el peor escenario, así como un VAN social de US$384.4 k.Organized companies with more than 500 employees, with a certain degree of maturity and organizational culture, usually have plans, policies and standards that allow sustainable management within their own borders. However, in the BANI context of the business environment, exacerbated by the effects of the pandemic, they have seen their supply chain become vulnerable and without tools to respond to a disruptive absence of goods and services. This situation is accentuated in telecommunications companies where the demand for the service has grown exponentially and requires a large and expensive infrastructure to be able to cover it. Faced with this situation, companies have chosen to have strong support from strategic suppliers who, being SMEs, have grown technologically and provide an attractive, fast and effective value proposition. However, their organic growth leads them to perform under a scheme of low level of compliance in terms of sustainability aspects, which is not socially responsible and sustainable. Consequently, in this consultancy a model was developed that allows establishing a sustainability indicator by evaluating the supplier and its subsequent selection under the sustainability criteria established in ISO 20400. Using multi-criteria decision-making methods (MCDM), it allows choosing Among several alternatives, those that best respond to the established criteria, in this way there is a tool that helps define the development of SMEs that support large companies, establishing the elements of greatest criticality and priority of attention. In addition, it makes them more competitive, innovative, and environmentally and socially sustainable. This proposal is viable, desirable, feasible and related to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 8, 9 and 13, favoring the environment and society. With an investment of S/. 77.38 k it generates a NPV of S/. 248.4k and an IRR of 34scenario, as well as a social NPV of US$ 384.4 k

Dipterocarps protected by Jering local wisdom in Jering Menduyung Nature Recreational Park, Bangka Island, Indonesia

Apart of the oil palm plantation expansion, the Jering Menduyung Nature Recreational Park has relatively diverse plants. The 3,538 ha park is located at the north west of Bangka Island, Indonesia. The minimum species-area curve was 0.82 ha which is just below Dalil conservation forest that is 1.2 ha, but it is much higher than measurements of several secondary forests in the Island that are 0.2 ha. The plot is inhabited by more than 50 plant species. Of 22 tree species, there are 40 individual poles with the average diameter of 15.3 cm, and 64 individual trees with the average diameter of 48.9 cm. The density of Dipterocarpus grandiflorus (Blanco) Blanco or kruing, is 20.7 individual/ha with the diameter ranges of 12.1 – 212.7 cm or with the average diameter of 69.0 cm. The relatively intact park is supported by the local wisdom of Jering tribe, one of indigenous tribes in the island. People has regulated in cutting trees especially in the cape. The conservation agency designates the park as one of the kruing propagules sources in the province. The growing oil palm plantation and the less adoption of local wisdom among the youth is a challenge to forest conservation in the province where tin mining activities have been the economic driver for decades. More socialization from the conservation agency and the involvement of university students in raising environmental awareness is important to be done
