Abstract
Esta tesis presenta una exploración de cómo las tecnologías de la industria 4.0 afectan las relaciones entre compradores y proveedores en el contexto peruano. Para ello, se utilizó un
enfoque empírico de investigación cualitativa y un diseño de estudio de casos múltiples, seleccionando cuatro empresas peruanas de diferentes sectores como casos de estudio. Para
obtener la información requerida para el análisis, los datos fueron recopilados mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas y se realizó un análisis cualitativo para identificar patrones. Luego del análisis, los hallazgos revelan que las tecnologías de la industria 4.0 tienen un impacto en
aspectos clave de la relación entre compradores y proveedores, como la confianza, cooperación
y colaboración, comunicación e intercambio de información, y duración de las relaciones.
Aunque existen limitaciones en términos del tamaño de la muestra y el enfoque de la investigación
desde la perspectiva del comprador, este estudio sienta las bases para futuras investigaciones en este campo poco explorado en un contexto en desarrollo como el peruano.
This thesis explores how Industry 4.0 technologies affect buyer-supplier relationships in the Peruvian context. An empirical qualitative research approach and a multiple-case design were employed, selecting four Peruvian companies from different sectors as case studies. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews, and a qualitative analysis was conducted to identify patterns. The findings reveal that Industry 4.0 technologies impact key aspects of buyer-supplier relationships, including trust, cooperation and collaboration, communication and information sharing, and relationship duration. Despite limitations in sample size and the buyer-focused research approach, this study lays the groundwork for future investigations in this underexplored field within a developing country like Peru.
