Análise do nível de maturidade em gestão de projetos na Universidade Federal de Alagoas

Abstract

Like many other organizations, the Universidade Federal de Alagoas uses projects to achieve its institutional goals. These are infrastructure expansion projects, technology system, events, among others. Despite their importance, many projects suffer delays, cost increases or even interrupted by managerial difficulties. Given this, there is a need to mature this competence and establish an effective project management methodology. To this end, continuous improvement processes are launched, where, through a performance evaluation, a path of improvement in project management is sought. Thus, this research aimed to analyze the organizational Project management capacity of the UFAL. For this, the Prado-MMGP methodology was used as the evaluation method. A research is classified as a descriptive case study with a quantitative and qualitative approach conducted through research and interviews. It was the subject of a survey by the dean of institutional management, the information technology nucleus and the infrastructure superintendence located at the Maceió and Arapiraca campuses. The results pointed to the sectors with the best project management evaluation are NTI Arapiraca, followed by Sinfra, NTI Maceió, CPAI-Proginst and Coplan. We use the institutionalized project management method. A final grade for the organization was 1.64 on a scale from 1 to 5, which represents a very low maturity. With the diagnosis made, it was possible to propose three actions to increase the generational maturity and increase the Project success rates: (1) implementation of the project office; (2) implementation of a computerized project management platform; (3) project management training. Nevertheless, these actions can be used as projects by the UFAL team, covering all phases and areas of knowledge.
