“…The variables described before, were taken from (Spekman et al , 1998; Kanda and Deshmukh, 2008; Arshinder et al , 2011; Mergarejo and Ruíz, 2014; Vivares Vergara, 2017; Lockamy III and McCormack, 2004; Gutierrez et al , 2018), among other authors. It was intended to group the variables these authors define as determinants at every stage of the process.…”

“…These five levels contain each of the characteristics associated with the maturity process (such as predictability, capacity, control, effectiveness and efficiency), and the definition of the measurement scale identified as: ad hoc, basic administration of the chain, SCOR linked to the chain, SCOR integrated to the chain and finally the expanded SCOR, as the highest state of maturity. On the other hand, for (Díaz and Ortiz, 2012 cited in Vivares Vergara, 2017) the maturity model deals with the structured definition of elements that indicate the particularities of a product or process at a time in time that allows establishing the state of its evolution for reach a mature state defined as the ideal, where it achieves a maximum level of performance.…”

“…Following methodology presented in (Vivares Vergara, 2017), six (6) principles are proposed in order to support the design and application of the maturity model in a supply chain in relation to the integration mechanisms for decentralized chains proposed in (Kanda and Deshmukh, 2008). These principles are defined based on the qualitative scope of the analysis and based on the literature consulted.…”

PurposeThe purpose of this research is to determine the convenience of using a contract model as an integration mechanism for decision-making in a decentralized supply chain of small agricultural producers in a developing country, taking as hypothesis coordinated chain achieves better management. The analysis is based on information obtained by direct inquiry to 99 small producers in the region, about planning, production, marketing and distribution in the chain, supplemented with secondary information sources.Design/methodology/approachAs a methodology an analysis of maturity in the chain based on the Capability Maturity Model Integration is done, whose evaluation is later analyzed as a fuzzy logic model, with the support of the fuzzy logic of the MATLAB toolbox, to study the convenience of the use of the contract against the other mechanisms, and to establish an approximation to the level of readiness of the chain toward integration.FindingsResults obtained show that the small farmer supply chain studied, from a maturity perspective, has a strong disposition for the use of contracts as an integration mechanism.Research limitations/implicationsThe supply chain for small producers presents a high dispersion, little consolidated offer capacity and lack of coordination. Limitations in terms of information and criteria unification are a challenge for future research. Results have socioeconomic implications for small producers and can serve as a guide to formulate policies by the governments in Latin American countries.Practical implicationsAs practical implications, it can be stated that the use of supply contracts is a real mechanism that can be implemented in this type of chain, to break the mistrust between the echelons and improve the supply chain performance. This research will allow to establish support programs from local governments for the sustainability and improving income of small producers. In addition, contracts will allow to formalize the linkage of small producers to a sustainable commercial network.Social implicationsSmall agricultural producers in developing countries live in unfavorable conditions, with socioeconomic limitations. This work offers an alternative for their productive activity development that will allow them access to marketing chains in a safe way and improve their living conditions.Originality/valuePrevious studies related to the maturity toward the chain integration and fuzzy logic as a hybrid methodology, were not found in the literature, and less even applied to a chain of small agricultural products.

“…Similar results must be found in different contexts to provide evidence that the measurements capture the same phenomena even if applied to other areas. Thus far, a few studies mentioned the work by Jain et al (2014) but none replicated their working method (Guo et al, 2015;Jain et al, 2016;Vivares-Vergara et al, 2015). Based on that work, we propose the following questions: Does the instrument proposed by Jain et al (2014) to measure manufacturing capabilities present a valid and reliable result in a context different from that originally analyzed by its authors?…”

Managers of organizations have few tools to evaluate manufacturing capabilities. Such scarcity implies in a greater difficulty to generate or maintain sustainable competitive advantages over competitors. This study aims to replicate the instrument developed by Jain et al. (2014) for the evaluation of manufacturing capabilities and analyze the results in the Brazilian business and cultural contexts. The instrument was translated into Portuguese using back-translation. After this, was performed a pre-test to verify understanding and clarity, then the instrument was distributed electronically. For data analysis, reliability analysis, face validation method, content validation, multiple regression analysis and factor analysis were performed. Subsequently, the results were compared with those of the work by Jain et al. (2014). Additionally, an exploratory factor analysis was performed to verify the convergent validity of the work. Statistical results were not adequate to validate the instrument in its current format, which requires improvements for it to be applied as a manufacturing capabilities assessment method in Brazil. The reliability index was adequate in approximately half of the instrument questions. As for multiple regression analysis, the results were not satisfactory. In addition, this research performed an exploratory factor analysis. Inconsistencies were identified. From ten expected factors, only four were obtained and had a low reliability index. These results contributed to the improvement of the instrument developed by Jain et al. (2014). It will be possible to take into account the results obtained in this study for implementations of statistical improvements and to observe questions that need to be changed in order to actually represent the 10 manufacturing decision areas of Hayes et al. (1988). Thus, it is necessary to conduct further studies and make improvements to make it a valuable tool for manufacturing.
