Calcalizas es una micro-empresa minera ubicada en el municipio de Nobsa, Boyacá, Colombia, constituida como persona natural hace 16 años, se dedica a la explotación y comercialización de piedra caliza y sus derivados. La empresa se ha mantenido en el mercado, pero factores como la falta de organización y de direccionamiento estratégico, provocaron que sus competidores tomaran ventaja. Por esta razón, y en busca de una organización adecuada a sus condiciones, que le permitiera un mayor nivel de competitividad, se realizó el diseño organizacional de Calcalizas. A partir del diagnóstico empresarial, se analizó información interna y externa del sector minero y de la construcción, a nivel regional y nacional, luego se diseñó la estructura organizacional por procesos y se sistematizaron los manuales de funciones, procesos y procedimientos. Para conseguir la información y socializar el trabajo, se realizaron entrevistas, talleres y reuniones con el propietario, los empleados y algunos clientes. Como consecuencia, se organizó la empresa involucrando al personal, se lograron cambios a nivel estratégico con enfoque a los clientes y se identificaron otras oportunidades de mejoramiento. También se confirma la necesidad de adaptar el diseño organizacional, según las características específicas de la empresa y su entorno, así como hacerlo coherente con la estrategia.
