Abstract

Logistics operators in Colombian Caribbean region structure their activities based on the grouping of processes linked to intralogistics activities. Consequently, this project aims to demonstrate that the improvement in the organizational efficiency index of these organizations should be developed through the implementation of 4.0 technologies, using the strengths provided by the implementation of simulation concepts in decision-making tool for intralogistics activities in logistics operators on Colombian Caribbean region. For fulfillment of the objectives, literary research framed in three categories: intralogistics, technology 4.0 and business efficiency, and instruments to assess the efficiency indexes obtained with the application of the technologies 4.0 in the parent company object of study, to evaluate the supply chain based on intralogistics activities 4.0, using as method the research line of operations management as for the analysis of the thematic axis the supply chains based on intralogistics operations. To this end, a series of logical steps are established, starting from the perception and direct treatment to establish the elements involved in the measurement of efficiency in organizations based on decision-making according to the scenarios that allow determining the impact of technologies 4.0 and ending with evaluations of the same based on the theoretical average index, of the challenges and perspectives that the dynamics of the international system and especially the agreements of the international free trade treaties that the neo-grenadine nation has approved and materialized in the last decade to make its economy more fruitful and fundamentally to the organizations of its different regions.
