Abstract(s)
Num contexto cada vez mais imprevisível em termos orçamentais e, na sequência das
várias restruturações operacionais, planeadas e presentemente em curso, a Força Aérea (FA)
enfrenta um desafio ao nível da gestão de material (stocks excedentários), que, embora sem
utilidade para a manutenção das suas atuais e renovadas frotas, continua a ocupar espaço
de armazenagem, representando apenas um custo. Neste enquadramento, afigurou-se
importante analisar formas alternativas de rentabilizar este material, por alienação, através, da
utilização de um serviço disponibilizado pelo Governo Americano, no âmbito do seu programa
de assistência Foreign Military Sales, o Worldwide Warehouse Redistribution Service (WWRS).
O presente estudo assentou num raciocínio indutivo, no estudo de caso como desenho de
pesquisa e numa estratégia de investigação qualitativa, de análise de conteúdo das respostas às
entrevistas semiestruturadas realizadas a 18 experts, nacionais e internacionais, intervenientes
em diferentes fases do processo de gestão de stocks. Da análise dos resultados, concluiu-se
que é exequível utilizar o WWRS na gestão, rentabilizada, dos stocks armazenados pela FA,
permitindo, entre outra mais-valias, libertar espaço de armazenagem, rentabilizar artigos já
sem utilidade para o Ramo, algum retorno financeiro e consequente financiamento de outras
capacidades core da organização/instituição.
Faced with an increasingly unpredictable budget climate, in which several operational restructurings are both planned and underway, the Portuguese Air Force (PoAF) has the difficult task of managing its excess stocks, which are no longer useful to maintain the current and renewed fleets, but that nevertheless continue to take up storage space and are only generating loss of revenue. This study will analyse alternative ways to monetise these stocks by using a service provided by the U.S. Government as part of its Foreign Military Sales assistance programme, the Worldwide Warehouse Redistribution Service (WWRS).The study uses inductive reasoning, a case study research design and a qualitative research strategy based on content analysis of the answers to semi-structured interviews. The interviewee sample consists of 18 national and international experts who be feasible to use the WWRS to optimise the management of the PoAF’s stored inventory. Among other benefits, it would free up storage space, monetise items that are no longer useful for the Branch, providing a partial return on investment, which the organization / institution can use to finance other core capabilities.
