Abstract

The present investigation has as an objective to develop a proposal of variables and characteristics to consider in a study of feasibility for the creation of a company dedicated to the transport of terrestrial load in the Center - North of Valle del Cauca. To do this, basic components must be developed, such as the market study, technical study, the administrative-legal study, the economic-financial study, with which it is concluded whether the idea is profitable or not, and how long it will take to recover the investment, important information to attract potential shareholders or investors.

The idea of business arises from the problem that the companies of the La Paila Town have to transport 100% of their scheduled dispatches. By means of compliance indicators, it was possible to confirm that Colombina S.A. it complies with its dispatches in 90% and that Riopaila - Castilla complies 95%, leaving 10% and 5% respectively of its deliveries without being dispatched on the scheduled day. This can generate discomfort in their clients, shortages of their agencies and breaches in the commitments they have made, and if they continue to do so, they can even lose their customers. Some of the results of the research is that the demand is 90% covered by the other transport companies, that is, there is a demand of 10% that is not covered by the competition. Another result is that the companies that generate the cargo look favorably the differentiated product offered (Drop Deck trailer) because it would allow them to mobilize a greater amount of volume.
