Abstract
La empresa CONEXPE S.A., ubicada en la vereda San Alfonso, cerca de Popayán, se dedica a la explotación y transformación de agregados pétreos, materiales fundamentales para la industria de la construcción. Su actividad implica una serie de procesos operativos, desde la extracción de la materia prima hasta la transformación de los agregados en productos terminados. En este contexto, la empresa enfrenta diversos costos asociados a sus operaciones, los cuales afectan su rentabilidad y eficiencia operativa. En esta investigación, se analizó el impacto de los costos operativos en la explotación y transformación de agregados pétreos en CONEXPE S.A. Se empleó un enfoque mixto, donde el instrumento utilizado fue la entrevista y en las respuestas que se obtuvieron por el gerente de la empresa se proporcionaron datos cuantitativos. Los costos de transformación en la planta de trituraión (27.6%) y costos administrativos generales (28.1%) son los rubros más representativos dentro del costo total, sumando más del 55% del total por metro cúbico. Los costos de perforación y voladura (18.9%) también representan un costo significativo y los costos ambientales y de seguridad (2.7% y 1.7%, respectivamente), aunque relativamente bajos, son importantes para cumplir con regulaciones y garantizar la sostenibilidad. Una recomendación principal es ampliar el número de entrevistas, abarcando a más personas dentro de la empresa, con el fin de comparar sus conocimientos y perspectivas según su rol específico
The company CONEXPE S.A., located in the San Alfonso district near Popayán, is dedicated to extracting and processing stone aggregates, essential materials for the construction industry. Its operations involve a series of processes, from extracting raw materials to transforming aggregates into finished products. In this context, the company faces various costs associated with its operations, which impact its profitability and operational efficiency. This research analyzed the impact of operational costs on the extraction and processing of stone aggregates at CONEXPE S.A. A mixed-method approach was used, with an interview as the main instrument. The responses obtained from the company's manager provided quantitative data. The processing costs at the crushing plant (27.6%) and general administrative costs (28.1%) are the most significant components within the total cost, accounting for more than 55% per cubic meter. Drilling and blasting costs (18.9%) also represent a considerable expense, while environmental and safety costs (2.7% and 1.7%, respectively), although relatively low, are crucial for regulatory compliance and sustainability. A key recommendation is to expand the number of interviews, including more employees within the company to compare their knowledge and perspectives based on their specific roles
