Estudo de viabilidade econômica no transporte madeireiro rodoviário : uma análise da terceirização versus frota própria

Abstract

This work was directed at raising costs involved in the transportation of timber in logs, which have a limited time demand. When looking for a precise survey, the data obtained were through a real case study of a company that proposed to provide information of an investment, such that, compared to its own service costs of own fleet versus outsourced transportation in the category of log truck. Considering the variables involved, the total costs of own fleet were measured against a third party fleet. The results indicate that in the case in question, the outsourced fleet is more economically advantageous, however, so that there are no shortcomings in the timber transportation process due to the limited transportation time, the fleet itself becomes more secure in terms of demand for the timber.
