This study examines the correlation between the skills and competencies developed in engineering programs and those required by the most representative economic sectors in Medellín for optimizing their production and logistics processes. In general terms, this paper aims to contribute to the research on higher education institutions and the alignment of their programs with the expectations of businesses in emerging countries. Thus, the proposed research question is as follows: What is the systemic relationship between academia and businesses in Colombia regarding the development of skills and competencies related to the optimization of production and logistics processes? To address this question, the study methodology starts by defining the target population (Industrial Engineering and related academic programs) and the dialogue methods adopted. Subsequently, a morphological space is created to establish systemic interconnections among the study variables and factors. Finally, patterns and qualitative/quantitative relationships are identified and grouped into two drivers that support the optimization of production and logistics processes. These drivers, in turn, consist of five key driving variables: quality defects, work environment, information and communication technology usage, operation traceability, and logistics and planning. The results indicate a correlation of 60% between courses and job competencies, 85.71% between academic skills and job competencies, and 71.88% between courses and academic skills. These findings provide insights to enhance cooperation between the academic and business sectors and foster the development of new local competitive capacities.

Many studies have been generated from the academy in order to demonstrate the relationship between Company-UniversityGovernment. This article aims to address the Axes methodology Schwartz as one of the most complete and accurate evidence the existing structures collaborative model between these three actors. For this construction is part of a key terminology, the research problem is determined, then the scope with their respective goals are, and then make the methodological development through the application of the axes to the Colombian context; for which a list of the subject of study, definition map with axes and possible futures, then the results are analyzed to generate conclusions and recommendations finally built. The main result of this reflection, evidenced a strong trend in the transformation to a business college, emphasizing training and risk-taking, where some companies operate even as universities. ; Han sido numerosos los trabajos generados desde la academia con el fin de evidenciar las relaciones existentes entre Empresa-Universidad-Gobierno. Este artículo pretende abordar la metodología de los Ejes de Schwartz como una de las estructuras más completas y acertadas que evidencia el modelo colaborativo existente entre estos tres actores. Para esta construcción se parte de una terminología clave, se determina el problema de investigación, luego se plantea el alcance con sus respectivos objetivos, después se realiza el desarrollo metodológico por medio de la aplicación de los ejes al contexto colombiano; para lo que se construye una lista del tema de estudio, definición del mapa con los ejes y futuros posibles, luego se analizan los resultados, y finalmente se generan conclusiones y recomendaciones. Como resultado principal de esta reflexión, se evidencia una fuerte tendencia en la transformación hacia una universidad empresarial, haciendo hincapié en la formación y la toma de riesgos, donde algunas empresas actúan incluso como universidades.
