Abstract(s)
A pandemia COVID-19 causou violentas perturbações nas cadeias de abastecimento e indústrias a nível global, transformando drasticamente a estratégia das empresas e desafiando-as a adaptar-se e a evoluir imediatamente. Uma vez que o estudo do impacto da crise pandémica no contexto português permanece minguado, esta dissertação compromete-se a contribuir para este tópico, debruçando-se sobre a aptidão de resposta das empresas portuguesas da indústria têxtil à disrupção. Foram analisados os impactos causados pela pandemia no comportamento da indústria e aprofundados os conceitos com base na gestão de risco, apresentados como ponto de partida deste estudo. Como método de investigação foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com cinco representantes de empresas têxteis em Portugal e posteriormente foi efetuada uma análise detalhada da informação recolhida. A flexibilidade e o emprego das capacidades dinâmicas revelaram-se determinantes para conduzir estas empresas positivamente face à pandemia. Através dos desafios, surgiram também como oportunidades para desenvolvimento futuro as práticas de inovação, a transparência e a sustentabilidade. Também a colaboração mostrou-se eficiente e conduziu as empresas à vantagem.

The impacts caused by the pandemic on the industry's behavior were analyzed and the concepts based on risk management, presented as the starting point of this study, were further explored. As a research method, semi-structured interviews were carried out with five representatives of textile companies in Portugal and then a detailed analysis of the information collected was carried out. Flexibility and the use of dynamic capabilities proved to be decisive in steering these companies positively in the face of the pandemic. Through the challenges, innovation practices, transparency and sustainability also emerged as opportunities for future development. Collaboration also proved to be efficient and led the companies to an advantage.
