In an increasingly dynamic environment and sectoral contexts extremely complex, the need to propose alternatives to improve the use of technological resources in small manufacturing companies arises. The objectives of the study were focused on developing a model to strategically manage technology resources in small manufacturing companies, and, in the application of this instrument to a particular industry segment. To perform the job resorted to various methods of literature review and semi-structured questionnaires were used from interviews with entrepreneurs and survey of productive establishments. As a result a model that supports the mechanics required to take advantage of technological resources strategically exposed from the revitalization of the strategic thinking of entrepreneurs and an application is presented in the sector of small sawmills in the province of Misiones, Argentina. This paper has a strong impact as a contribution to strengthening the decision making at the management level and developing strategies of technological resources to improve the productive performance and the social responsibility of small manufacturing companies.
