Dinámica de Sistemas: Capacidad de Absorción Digital en Manufactura Avanzada
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la Capacidad de Absorción Digital en la manufactura avanzada para resolver la paradoja de la productividad bajo el enfoque de Sistemas Complejos. El método empleado es cuantitativo, utilizando Dinámica de Sistemas y simulación en Python para evaluar escenarios en un horizonte de 60 meses. Los resultados de la simulación sugieren que el conocimiento tiende a converger a largo plazo, mientras que el talento humano parece actuar como un limitador estructural de la inversión tecnológica. Los hallazgos identifican una asincronía temporal donde una gestión ineficiente genera retardos de hasta 17 meses, invalidando la ventana de oportunidad industrial. La originalidad radica en la formalización matemática de la asincronía entre los ciclos de aprendizaje organizacional y la obsolescencia tecnológica. La limitación del estudio es que el modelo asume una inversión constante, sin considerar la volatilidad financiera externa o crisis del mercado manufacturero.
