Abstract

The main purpose of this research is to design a logistic plan of direct import of motors for the automation of doors, and their distribution in Chimborazo and Tungurahua provinces to the Metallic Industries Vilema (IMEV) in order to increase the supply of this product in these two provinces. This research is exploratory, descriptive, and bibliographic, which made possible to support this study. In addition, surveys addressed to the economically active population (PEA) from Tungurahua and Chimborazo provinces; were an instrument of vital importance as it was possible to collect relevant information to determine the existing demand for the product planned to be imported. The respective market study was conducted to stablish the existing demand, thus, determining the supply required to cover the customer needs. The appropriate price quotations were also analyzed to decide and choose the country and the company from which it is intended to import, so it was decided to import from China to the company Shenzhen Eazylifgt Technology Co. Ltd. because its prices are cheaper and its products are of the same quality as those of the competition. Therefore, the feasibility of the project is demonstrated by the respective financial evaluation whose results establish that the implementation of the import project will yield a Net Present Value (NPV) of $ 307. 227, 75, the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) will be 27.03% and the estimated period of capital recovery is approximately 3 years and 9 months, these indicators are attractive for the investors of the company of Metallic Industries IMEV. It is suggested that executives of the organization implement this proposal in order to contribute to the success of the company.
