    Diagnóstico de cumplimiento de los requisitos de la norma internacional de sistemas de gestión Basura Cero versión 5 de 2023 en la empresa Productos Ramo S.A.S. para sus dos plantas de producción en Mosquera Cundinamarca
    Herrera-Rodríguez, Alfred Leoman; Díaz-Ospina, Laura
    This study aimed to diagnose the level of compliance of Productos Ramo S.A.S. with the requirements established in the Zero Waste Management Systems International Standard version 5:2023, at its two production plants located in Mosquera, Cundinamarca. The research was conducted using a mixed-methods approach, combining document review, direct observation at the plant, and quantitative waste analysis. A structured checklist based on the standard's requirements was applied, walkthroughs were conducted in operational areas to verify the application of procedures, and records of waste generation and utilization for the year 2025 were analyzed. The results show a medium-to-high level of compliance with the Zero Waste Management System, with an overall score of 93 out of 100 possible points and 91% compliance with the evaluated requirements. The company's high performance in recycling and waste utilization is noteworthy, with a utilization rate exceeding 94%. However, gaps were identified in the operation of the integrated solid waste management system, particularly in the processes of separation, storage, and emergency preparedness, as well as opportunities for improvement in the consolidation of strategic indicators and in management review. The diagnostic assessment established a solid technical basis for formulating improvement proposals aimed at strengthening operational standardization, continuous improvement, and the consolidation of the system, with a view to a possible certification process under the International Standard for Management Systems.

    Estrategia de economía circular empresa ENVAPAC LTDA
    Rivera-Silva, Cindy Johanna; Córdoba-Mosquera, Marilyn Yesenia; Díaz-Ospina, Laura
    In Colombia, the strengthening of corporate environmental management has been driven by regulatory instruments, which establish measures for the progressive reduction of single-use plastics, and by policies aimed at closing production cycles, such as the National Policy on Sustainable Production and Consumption and the National Circular Economy Strategy. ENVAPAC LTDA is a small company, located in the city of Bogotá, dedicated to the manufacture of plastic containers. It needs to reduce its solid waste within the production process and minimize the consumption of virgin resin as a raw material. This research is oriented under a technical and regulatory implementation model for the reintegration of pre-consumer waste and opting for the use of post-consumer recycled resin, choosing circular economy practices within the Circular Waste Management Plan. The purpose is to strengthen environmental sustainability, close the life cycle of plastic products, and guarantee compliance with Law 2232 of 2022 on single-use plastics. This is in accordance with the review of the requirements established in NTC 6632:2022 to identify the necessary criteria to build a circular economy model to obtain traceability certification, conformity assessment, and verification of recycled plastic content—essential elements to move towards the process of tax exemption for plastics.

    Formulación del Plan Institucional de Gestión Ambiental (PIGA) para la alcaldía municipal de Tocaima Cundinamarca
    Téllez-Franco, Sara Daniela; Díaz-Ospina, Laura
    This study formulates the Institutional Environmental Management Plan (PIGA) for the Municipal Mayor's Office of Tocaima, Cundinamarca, in response to non-compliance with Decree 1076 of 2015, which requires all public entities nationwide to implement this planning instrument. The administration employs 161 individuals 31 permanent civil servants and 130 contractors and lacks formal resource monitoring systems, environmental criteria in procurement, waste management programs, and structured environmental training for its staff. A mixed-method descriptive-propositional approach was applied. The quantitative component involved analysis of utility invoices, physical characterization of solid waste through the quartering method (GTC 24), and review of the office supply procurement contract. The qualitative component included systematic direct observation across departments and administration of a digital environmental perception questionnaire to 25 employees. Results established a baseline of 85.3 m3 of water and 7,820 kWh of electricity consumed monthly, a complete absence of standardized waste-sorting stations across all seven departments, and a significant knowledge gap regarding environmental regulations. Based on the diagnosis, four management programs were designed: efficient use of water and energy, sustainable public procurement, comprehensive solid waste management, and institutional environmental education. Each program includes quantifiable targets, monitoring indicators, responsible parties, and a twelve-month implementation schedule, providing a technically grounded instrument to achieve regulatory compliance and strengthen the entity's internal environmental management capacity.
