This document is the result of a research project: "New productive systems and the transformation of the work process; identification of effectively required know-how", implemented under an agreement between the Ministry of Culture and Education of Argentina and the Argentine Workers’ Federation (CGT).

It is the second stage of a scheme entitled "Education, Vocational Training and Productive Networks" that had the same sponsors. During the first stage carried out in 1995 a certain correlation had been detected between the level reached by firms in their respective sectoral branches and the occupational competencies they required. In the automotive sector in particular, adaptation strategies in response to macro-economic and sectoral transformations were an important element, that also varied in accordance with the subcontracting level of each firm.

An important finding was the homogeneous nature of entrepreneurial attitudes. However, new research data indicated the existence of diverse and complex processes. The divergence gave rise to the concern that led to the second stage of the project in 1996, covering a small group of automobile parts and engineering firms in the city of Buenos Aires and the industrial facilities of the province of Buenos Aires.
