Abstract

The interest of the present investigation is to identify information related to the requirements that Mexican local companies must have in order to be considered as suppliers of the Electronic Sector Maquiladora Industry. For the effects of this research, the Bell and Pavitt model with the matrix of technological capabilities adapted by Dutrenit was chosen. Only the bonding dimension will be analyzed; which is defined as those necessary support capabilities to receive and transmit information, experience and technology of the suppliers of components and raw materials of subcontractors, consultants, service companies and technological institutions. Therefore, the objective is to identify if the technological capability of linkage is an important factor for the Mexican local pro-monitoring to increase its integration in the Decree for the Promotion of the Manufacturing, Maquila and Export Service Industry (IMMEX) electronic sector. The results of the research will allow identifying the technological capabilities of linking the local Mexican supplier of the electronic sector, and thus identify the type and class of suppliers that are required to boost their development.
