“…In addition to the structure with maturity levels, the LMM is based on three more pillars (Battista & Schiraldi, ): Reference model, which identifies the main areas of logistics processes. Indicators, which are related to each maturity level in each process area. The LMM also takes into account the set of best practices that provide guidance with suggestions on how to increase the indicators. Improvement system, which defines a roadmap for improvements, based on the indicators, maturity level, and process areas. …”

In organizational management, operational performance and the maturity level of processes should be considered for improving quality and productivity. The present research has the overall objective of analyzing the level of maturity of the purchasing process of bibliographic material, developed in the university libraries of a Federal University. Based on the overall objective, we aim to identify maturity models used in process management in the scientific literature, as well as proposing a way of collecting and treating the perception of maturity of the purchasing process of bibliographic material. To achieve these objectives, we adopted as methodological procedures the bibliographic research in the SciELO, SCOPUS, and DOAJ bases and the case study on the perception of maturity of the purchasing process of books from the university libraries, using the interview and closed questionnaire. The questionnaire was applied to 40 staff members of the system of university libraries. The results indicate that the majority of activities carried out for the purchase of books present levels of maturity above Level 1. This shows that the processes performed in libraries for the purchase of books are defined, planned, and controlled, although there is a considerable number of aspects that can be improved. In terms of relevance for library management, the research intends to provide subsidies for the planning and management of the purchasing process of bibliographic material and the optimization of resources, as well as understanding and assessing the process carried out, identifying its maturity levels.

Fashion and Apparel Supply Chains work in a very fast-changing environment and always demand better quality, higher availability of products, broader assortments and shorter delivery times. An efficient Supply Chain Management can make a difference between success and failure in the market. In this context, the main purposes of the presented work are: (i) to define the physical and informative flows, together with connected cost and revenue items, which characterize a Fashion Supply Chain working with a wide network of direct-operated or franchising mono-brand stores and (ii) to optimize Supply Chain performances through a responsive approach which, during the sales season, analyses actual market demand and adjusts operations plans accordingly. The framework aims at becoming a decision support system for the optimization of the performances of a process that starts from the development of the collection by the Styling Office and ends with the withdrawal of unsold items from the stores. In order to analyze the performances under different scenarios, a set of Key Performance indicators, partially selected from the SCOR Model, is defined
