Abstract Purpose: To identify organizational and technological reactions of companies in the Mexican states of Oaxaca and Veracruz with regards to the COVID-19 crisis. Methodological design: This is a quantitative and cross-sectional study. The information was collected in two phases: May and September, 2020. The survey was answered by 154 companies in the first phase and 178 in the second. The instruments were designed to collect information on the impact the pandemic had on companies’ operation: the measures adopted to survive the crisis, the government "support" they received, and the conditions for a possible return to the "new normal." The sample of 154 and 178 companies has statistical validity with a confidence level of 95% and a margin of error of 7.88% and 6%, in phase 1 and 2, respectively. Results: At the beginning of the pandemic, only a third of the companies from Veracruz, Boca del Río and Tuxtepec registered major affectations, unlike the border cities of the northern states of Mexico. Research limitations: Despite the design of an extensive promotion campaign, high rates of rejection could have affected the representativeness of the study. Findings: The results show that uncertainty resulting from the pandemic has generated new business opportunities for those companies capable of combining the internal adjustment of their costs and the search of new business models with greater use of digital technologies and higher inventory margins. |

Objetivo: identificar las reacciones organizacionales y tecnológicas de las empresas de Veracruz y Oaxaca ante la crisis generada por la COVID-19. Diseño metodológico: el enfoque de este estudio es cuantitativo y transversal. La recopilación de la información se realizó en dos fases: mayo y septiembre del 2020. En la primera fase se obtuvo información de 154 empresas, mientras que en la segunda participaron 178. Los instrumentos se diseñaron para recopilar información sobre los impactos de la pandemia sobre el funcionamiento de las empresas; las medidas que están tomando para sobrevivir a la crisis; la naturaleza de los apoyos gubernamentales y las condiciones para el posible retorno a una “nueva normalidad”. Esta muestra de 154 y 178 empresas tiene una validez estadística con un nivel de confianza del 95% y un margen de error del 7.88% y 6% en la fase 1 y 2. Resultados: al inicio de la pandemia, solo una tercera parte de las empresas de los municipios de Veracruz, Boca del Río y Tuxtepec habían registrado afectaciones. En contraste con los municipios fronterizos del norte de México. Limitaciones de investigación: a pesar de la amplia distribución virtual del instrumento, las altas tasas de rechazo pudieron haber afectado la representatividad del estudio. Hallazgos: se muestra que la incertidumbre producida por la pandemia ha generado nuevas oportunidades de negocio para aquellas empresas capaces de combinar el ajuste interno de sus costos, la búsqueda de nuevos modelos de negocio; con mayor uso de tecnologías digitales y mayores márgenes de inventario.
