All 12 Documented Cases
Decisões de Compra Ineficientes por Falta de Visibilidade em Dados de Uso
R$ 50,000–300,000 annually (10–20% overspend on procurement; missed bulk discounts 5–10%; inefficient supplier mix adds 3–5%)Procurement teams rely on gut feel or simple reorder-point formulas (e.g., 'order when stock hits X'). Without analytics on actual failure rates, seasonal patterns, or equipment age cohorts, purchasing decisions miss critical insights. For example: a critical bearing may be ordered conservatively because no one tracks that equipment failures have declined 50% due to predictive maintenance. Result: overstocking of unnecessary parts while missing true bottlenecks.
Custo Brasil em Gestão de Estoque de Peças — Excesso vs. Escassez
R$ 50,000–150,000 per year per facility (8–15% of spare parts budget for mid-sized manufacturers); or 15–40 hours/month in manual count and reconciliation laborSpare parts inventory in manufacturing creates a cost trap: excess inventory immobilizes working capital and risks obsolescence; insufficient inventory triggers expensive emergency orders and production downtime. Manual systems (spreadsheets, visual counts) lack predictive capability, forcing companies to overprovision by 20-30% as a safety buffer. This is especially acute in Brasil due to supply chain volatility and long lead times from international suppliers.
Multas por Não Conformidade com NF-e e SPED (Rejeição de Documentos Fiscais)
R$ 500 to R$ 1,500 per month in late-filing penalties per the Federal Revenue Service (Receita Federal). SEFAZ audit fines typically range R$ 5,000 to R$ 50,000+ depending on violation severity and audit findings.When production yield reports contain errors or arrive late, corresponding invoices (NF-e modelo 55) fail SEFAZ validation. Manual reprocessing delays customer invoicing by 5-15 days and triggers compliance audits. Non-filing within 10 days of month-end incurs penalties.
Custos Operacionais Ocultos de Conformidade Regulatória (Custo Brasil)
Estimated R$ 50,000-R$ 500,000 per facility shutdown event (lost production + regulatory remediation). Ongoing compliance labor: 20-40 hours/month = R$ 3,000-R$ 8,000/month (at typical São Paulo technical specialist rates). Potential NR penalties: R$ 2,000-R$ 20,000 per violation.Production yield analysis must account for Custo Brasil: occupational safety standards (NRs) require documentation of waste handling, material safety, and worker hazard compensation. Regulatory Standard No. 28 (inspection and penalties) allows fines for non-compliant processes. Non-compliance can trigger facility interdiction (shutdown) until corrected.
