Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness operating of process control carried aout by the Superintendence of Free Zone of Manaus for the period 2000-2008, to grant approval to manufacturers of motorcycles of Two Wheels Pole to import by Inputs Importing Standard Listing SUFRAMA. All the manufacturers of motorcycles in the country take part in the pole, making it important not only for the economy of the Amazon, but also to the national economy. The inefficiency of the control processes can result in various effects such as lack of finished products, increase of inventory costs and interruption of production among others. Data collection on Two Wheels Pole considered: secondary data by analysis of documents of SUFRAMA dealing with import procedures; primary data by applying a questionnaire to companies with objective and subjective questions; and empirical observation. The results indicate that the companies had little satisfaction in some aspects and reasonable satisfaction in other points about the current process control imports of inputs accomplished by SUFRAMA. When stimulated, the companies pointed out to fully support by SUFRAMA to put available a list of inputs for import (list of allowed inputs) for each motocycle model approved in their respective projects, that significantly simplify to fill out the Import Licensing Aplication and all previous steps for the enterprises and SUFRAMA
