¿Por qué un Índice Verdes, Digitales y Competitivas para las pymes?

El Índice Verdes, Digitales y Competitivas es un proyecto plurianual destinado a apoyar a las pymes en una doble transición y a hacer el seguimiento del Programa Europeo Green Deal de la Comisión Europea. Parte de una premisa bien conocida en la consultoría de gestión: si quieres cambiar algo, mídelo. Dentro de ese epígrafe, adopta una visión innovadora del rendimiento de las pymes a escala nacional en tres áreas clave: 1) Ecología: ¿Con qué rapidez se mueven las pymes a la hora de reducir las emisiones y aumentar su eficiencia energética? 2) Digitalización: ¿Con qué rapidez están adoptando dichas empresas las modernas tecnologías en el seno de sus organizaciones? Y 3) Competitividad: ¿Con qué rapidez están creciendo y qué rendimiento tienen fuera de sus mercados nacionales?

The project is managed and led by Lisbon Council Research, the scientific arm of the Lisbon Council, a Brussels-based think tank. The views presented are those of the authors.

The principal authors and project team would like to thank Amazon for its support throughout the project. Thanks as well to the numerous entrepreneurs who took time to share their experience – and to friends and associates who kindly critiqued early drafts and offered many useful suggestions. A full list is included in the acknowledgements section of the print edition. Any errors of fact or judgement are the authors’ sole responsibility.

Metodología

The Green, Digital and Competitive SME Index is a ranking composed of three pillars, nine indicators and 22 sub-indicators. The data used to build the index comes entirely from public sources. All scores are computed using the most recent data available at the close of 2022 (taking June 2023 as the data freezing point). The sub-indicator data ranges from the period 2020 to 2022, depending on the most recent year available for the sub-indicator in question.

The main aggregation method used is the arithmetic average. All pillars, indicators and sub-indicators have been assigned equal weights in the aggregation process. Therefore, an indicator's performance is computed as the arithmetic average of the sub-indicators included in the indicator. Similarly, a pillar's performance is the arithmetic average of the indicators included in the pillar. The overall assessment of a country is the arithmetic average of the component pillars.

From an aggregation perspective, the normalisation method used to standardise the sub-indicators' values is the min-max, with a normalisation range of 10 to 100. For the majority of the sub-indicators (20 of 22 indicators), the highest value corresponds to the best performance (100 points), while the lowest value is considered the worst performance (10 points). For two sub-indicators, II.2.1 SME Emissions and II.2.2 Overall Change in Greenhouse Gas Emissions, the method is reversed: the lowest value gets the highest score (100 points) and the highest value gets the lowest one (10 points).
