Desenvolvimento de um modelo de gestão do conhecimento para a melhoria do processo de desenvolvimento de produtos

The knowledge management has received major attention from product designers because many of the activities within this process have to be creative and, therefore, they depend basically on the knowledge of the people who are involved in the process. Moreover, Product Development Process (PDP) is one of the activities in which knowledge management manifests in the most critical form once it had the intense application of the knowledge. As a consequence, this thesis analyzes the knowledge management aiming to improve the PDP and it also proposes a theoretical model of knowledge management. This model uses five steps (creation, maintenance, dissemination, utilization and discard) through the verification of the occurrence of four types of knowledge conversion (socialization, externalization, combination and internalization) that it will improve the knowledge management in this process. The intellectual capital in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) managed efficiently and with the participation of all employees has become the mechanism of the creation and transference processes of knowledge, supporting and, consequently, improving the PDP. The expected results are an effective and efficient application of the proposed model for the creation of the knowledge base within an organization (organizational memory) aiming a better performance of the PDP. In this way, it was carried out an extensive analysis of the knowledge management (instrument of qualitative and subjective evaluation) within the Design department of a Brazilian company (SEBRAE/RN). This analysis aimed to know the state-of-the-art of the Design department regarding the use of knowledge management. This step was important in order to evaluate in the level of the evolution of the department related to the practical use of knowledge management before implementing the proposed theoretical model and its methodology. At the end of this work, based on the results of the diagnosis, a knowledge management system is suggested to facilitate the knowledge sharing within the organization, in order words, the Design department

Avaliação da interação universidade - empresas - governo no desenvolvimento de projetos inovadores no RN por micro e pequenas empresas

Knowledge and innovation were seen as major forces, both for survival, as the acquisition of competitive advantages in the Brazilian economy, as well as adding value to the product as a market differentiator. The Triple Helix model is directed toward the knowledge-based economy. Over the past six years, the Federal Government through the Financier of Studies and Projects ( FINEP ) invested in technological innovation projects, economic subsidies, about U.S. $ 1 billion supporting more than 800 projects with these resources. According to the MCTI , the Northeast, over the years 2000 to 2010 increased spending on Science and Technology (considering the activities of research and development more scientific and related activities) of the State Government in relation to its total revenue In 2000, 0.51% of total revenues were invested in Science & Technology, while in 2010 this figure increased to 1.31%. Among the nine Northeast states, Paraíba is highlighted. In 2000, 0.33% of its total revenues were directed to innovation, reaching 2.04% in 2010, the largest increase in the region while the RN invested 0.24% in 2000 and in 2010 reached the level of 1.42 %. According to IBGE, in the period 2000-2011, the micro and small enterprises surpassed the barrier of 6 million establishments. In 2000, there were 4.2 million establishments while in 2011 were 6.3 million active establishments. Therefore, throughout the period, there was a creation of approximately 2.1 million new establishments. Between 2000 and 2011, micro and small businesses have created 7.0 million formal jobs, 8.6 million jobs in 2000 to 15.6 million in 2011. This scenario shows the importance of this study in relation to the investment of governments in RD & I in micro and small enterprises. This study aims to analyze the interaction Universities - Business - Government in the development of innovation in micro and small companies in Rio Grande do Norte participants of the edicts of Inova FAPERN. We chose to adopt as a research method case study concerning the procedure of the research, exploratory, descriptive, and on documents with engineers and researchers of innovation projects approved by PAPPE Subsidy (Inova -RN I, II and III). Data collection was done through the report made by FAPERN entitled: " Evaluation of companies financed and supported by the Grant Program for Technological Innovation for Micro and Small Enterprises RN - INOVA -RN " (2010) and a questionnaire with 40 closed questions and 1 opened to 30 affirmative composed based on a 5-point Likert scale. The analysis of data was qualitative and quantitative. The study provided to identify the importance and barriers arising from the relation between Government Enterprise (micro and small) and University as essential to the economic development of the region. It was also identified that, in the innovation projects, 70% of the goods or services originating from research were to market these, 50% resulted in a patent for the company and 80% publications of scientific articles

Práticas discursivas de regulamentação e liberdade no processo de desenvolvimento profissional: a constituição de subjetividades de professores na Revista Nova Escola

This present thesis has the object to study the discursive constitution the teacher s subjectivities of practice permeating the sections of the magazine Nova Escola between the years 2000-2005. Problematizes how the teacher s subjectivities are produced facing the discourse of truth, which effects establishes a program for autonomist professional development in a perspective of neo-liberal governmentality. Then from this uneasiness arises some requisite questions: in the new century how teacher s subjectivities are discursively produced in magazine s sections Nova Escola during those five years of governmentality? In which perspective the discourses throughout government documents in related with professional development reflect in the linguistic-discursive repertories adopted by Nova Escola? How the experts belonging to the cadre from and/or guests from the magazine, seeking equip discursive the teacher s subjectivities for the XXI Century? Therefore, this paper objective is to examine the linguistics strategies used to produce these subjectivities at magazine s sections, what it admittedly teaches another method how to be teacher; and also it analyzes the discursive practices that compound and set boundaries to the autonomist professional development proposed by sections the magazine; describe technologies used by experts to equip and conduct of conduct the teacher to govern the self. This research is inserted theoretically in the field of Applied Linguistis, to the Cultural Studies and about the contribution of Michel Foucault s theories and methodologically in the perspective discursive interpretative. The results seek to show that the teacher s subjectivities are produced by many technologies of the self, traversed by government discourses and ratified by discursive practices of the magazine s experts. That discourse, without any oppressing or authoritarian connotation, opens space for practice of Freedom and self guiding to both constitute the subjectivity process of the teacher in the XXI Century s path

A contribuição da asstênia técnica no desenvolvimento desenvolvimento de projetos de assentamento no estado do Rio Grande do Norte

The public policies must have as their aimed the primordial at improving quality of life of families of a given population, however, its performance must be constantly monitored and evaluated scoped to ascertain whether these policies are reaching those goals. This work consisted in search of bibliographies and analysis that addressed the historical evolution of the debate on the subject of agrarian reform in Brazil as public policy and on the policy of technical assistance and rural extension, and collecting data in loco, in order to assess whether the actions implemented under this latter contribute to improvements in local development of settlements projects (PA) land reform in the state of Rio Grande do Norte (RN), this given the constant presented criticisms regarding their effectiveness, considering that it is difficult to empirically differentiate settlements they received of those who did not receive the technical assistance services. In this way, was held the data collection for comparison of characteristics (social organization, relationship with the local environment, form of producing and evaluation of technical assistance services) of two settlements in RN, being one you have received the technical assistance services and another who has not had access to these services in the past five years, at least, to confirm whether those who had access to the above services presents best features of social organization and the relationship with the local environment, mainly, which was confirmed in the results obtained, which still demonstrated that no significant differences on the forma to produce and of commercialization in PA studied. It was also found that the problems faced by families settled in PA studied resemble those seen verified in many other Brazilian states, especially as to how to use natural resources in the areas of land reform and the instability of the availability of technical assistance services. Should be guaranteed at continuity and universality of technical assistance services to settlements, seeking a higher focus on productive issues, which provide the income necessary for families settled can have a better quality of life

Sistematização do fluxo de informações no processo de projeto de edificações em empresas construtoras e incorporadoras

O trabalho trata do fluxo de informações no processo de desenvolvimento de projetos, de edificações comerciais e multifamiliares verticais, gerados a partir das rotinas de comunicação entre empresa construtora, arquiteto, projetistas de estrutura, de instalações elétricas e hidrosanitárias e os procedimentos por eles aplicados, para se alcançar a qualidade desejada dos projetos. São investigados a problemática das metodologias tradicionais de projeto e a aplicabilidade de conceitos de engenharia simultânea, sugerindo a realização em paralelo das varias etapas do processo, desenvolvimento integrado de projetos do produto e da produção, estabelecimento de equipes ultidisciplinares e uma maior orientação para a satisfação do cliente final. É apresentado um método de análise capaz de identificar a maturidade das empresas construtoras para a implantação da engenharia simultânea e a explicitação do fluxo de informações, fornecendo uma visão global do processo de projeto. São realizados três estudos de caso consultando três empresas construtoras e incorporadoras e seus respectivos projetistas: arquiteto, engenheiro estrutural, elétrico e hidrosanitário, os quais corroboram as hipóteses estabelecidas na pesquisa. Como conclusão recomenda-se o desenvolvimento de modelos de processo de projeto baseados nos princípios de engenharia simultânea e métodos que possam vir a oferecer uma visão global do processo, dando suporte aos intervenientes na troca sistematizada e racionalizada das informações, objetivando a introdução de ferramentas que possam contribuir para uma modelagem do processo de projeto harmonizada com os princípios de qualidade.

Qualidade de vida em Porto Velho, Rondônia: perspectivas do processo de desenvolvimento regional

Esta tese de doutorado nasceu da escassez de estudos referentes aos efeitos das grandes obras, sobre a qualidade de vida das cidades. Nesse sentido, visando estudar exatamente esse problema dentro de um cenário amazônico, propôs-se pesquisar os efeitos das usinas hidrelétricas de Jirau e de Santo Antônio, em seu processo de construção, às margens do rio Madeira, em Rondônia e, assim, analisar a qualidade de vida dentro do perímetro urbano da cidade de Porto Velho, o que constituiu o objeto de estudo da presente investigação. Para tanto, buscou-se aporte na teoria do “Fetiche”, de Marx, na obra “O capital” (1980). Assim, procurou-se explicar a migração de trabalhadores, na busca por melhores salários e oportunidades de ganhos econômicos, nas obras das hidrelétricas mencionadas. A perspectiva teórica do “fetichismo da mercadoria”, de Marx (1967), desencadeou a inter-relação com os aspectos diretamente ligados ao âmago da presente tese, que se constitui numa Pesquisa de natureza qualitativa. Essa foi desenvolvida com base no método de Análise Fatorial, utilizando o programa estatístico SPSS, versão 17. Para isso, foram aplicados 1.449 questionários, distribuídos igualitariamente, em grupos de 21, para cada um dos 69 bairros da cidade. E, dessa forma, construir os índices de IQVU (índices de qualidade de vida urbana), segundo Santos e Martins (2002) e, para análises multifatoriais, de acordo com Hair et al. (2005) e com Santana (2007; 2005). A partir disso, os resultados obtidos permitiram concluir que o índice de qualidade de vida de Porto Velho, no período correspondente à fase anterior a chegada das usinas, à região, era de 0,452. Portanto, classificado como um índice de desempenho regular. Em relação à fase atual, esse índice apresentou uma queda de 15,31%, alcançando um valor de 0,392. Por consequência, considerado de ruim desempenho. Desse modo, permitiu-se concluir que a qualidade de vida de Porto Velho, conforme a opinião dos entrevistados, literalmente, piorou com a chegada das usinas hidrelétricas do rio Madeira, em Porto Velho/Rondônia. A relevância do presente estudo reside na análise do espaço intramunicipal e na integração dos dados provenientes da pesquisa de campo, com a informação gerada durante as análises. Isto levou a deduções lógicas, fundamentadas nos critérios adotados e decorrentes dos resultados das avaliações. Consequentemente, esse poderá servir como suporte às decisões políticas, sobre o planejamento de ações a serem executadas, para gestão do território no âmbito municipal.
