Resumo: This article deals with the characterization of benchmarking in the strategic process of agro-industrial cooperatives which participated of the Revitalization Program of Agricultural Cooperatives named Recoop, in the period between 1998 and 2005. This study had an exploratory character which incorporated documentary research, interviews and direct observation based on the theories of strategic processes suggested by Van De Ven (1992) and the benchmarking process formulated by Camp (1997). Using different techniques and with the support of an analytical tool developed to investigate the practices of strategic management, it was concluded that benchmarking is poorly used by the analyzed cooperatives. We identified management practices that may pose a strategic weakness for the use of benchmarking by the cooperatives, as well as practices that may act in the opposite direction, facilitating the adoption of this practice.

Este artigo tem por objetivo caracterizar e avaliar o emprego do benchmarking no processo estratégico das cooperativas agroindustriais paranaenses que participaram do Programa de Revitalização das Cooperativas de Produção Agropecuária, RECOOP, no período compreendido entre 1998 e 2005. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória que integrou pesquisa documental, entrevistas semi-estruturadas e observação direta para investigar o tema tendo como base principalmente as teorias de processos estratégicos sugeridas por Van De Ven (1992) e a descrição do processo de benchmarking formulada por Camp (1997). Utilizando diferentes técnicas e com apoio de um instrumento de análise desenvolvido para investigar as práticas de gestão estratégica convergentes com o benchmarking, foi possível concluir que o benchmarking é utilizado de uma forma ainda pouco estruturada pelas cooperativas paranaenses. Foram identificadas as práticas de gestão estratégica que podem representar uma fraqueza para a utilização do benchmarking pelas cooperativas, bem como as práticas que podem agir no sentido contrário, facilitando a adoção desta prática.
