Estratégia de defesa do Brasil: uma análise do gerenciamento de projetos de portfólio estratégico do Exército Brasileiro segundo as normas para elaboração, gerenciamento e acompanhamento de projetos

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze how project management in a military organization can contribute to the defense of Brazil. It is perceived the importance of project management in organizations and for the defense of society, as well as contributing to the development of technologies and fostering the nationally based industry, benefiting citizens with the generation of new jobs. Due to the great complexity in the management of the Terrestrial Force's strategic projects and novelty for the institution, there was a need to elaborate norms for the elaboration, management and monitoring of management projects of the Brazilian Army's strategic project portfolios (NEGAPORT-EB) that were edited by the Earth Force. Due to the great transformations that take place in the Land Force, it was necessary to use management methods that would effectively deliver projects during the life stages of a project. Therefore, in 2012, the Army's project office was created with the purpose of managing strategic projects. The project management carried out by the Project Office of the Land Force uses the best practices in project management, contributing to Brazil's defense strategy.
