Implementação LEAN: padronização e auditorias numa linha de pintura industrial

O presente relatório centra-se na aplicação de um sistema de padronização numa célula de pintura industrial. Assim, e como a célula estudada não tinha no momento um sistema de padronização implementado, a principal motivação deste trabalho prendeu-se com a obtenção de benefícios que a normalização de boas práticas pode trazer aos processos, principalmente em indústrias extremamente competitivas, como é o caso do setor em que a empresa em estudo se insere. Para sustentar a implementação da padronização na célula de pintura foi primariamente realizado um estudo teórico sobre a metodologia de base: o LEAN, assim como sobre algumas das suas principais ferramentas. Em particular, destaca-se o Standard Work, ou Padronização, e a Auditoria. Fazendo uso deste levantamento bibliográfico e dos recursos presentes na empresa de acolhimento, foi assim gerado e implementado um sistema padronizado na célula de pintura, composto essencialmente por padrões de tarefas e documentação. Estes têm como principal função criar fundações de base fiável e íntegra, servindo de apoio ao controlo da qualidade, resolução de problemas, e implementação de melhorias no futuro industrial da célula visada. De modo complementar, foi também produzido um conjunto de propostas de implementações de novos métodos, incidindo principalmente na melhoria da qualidade de execução das operações de setup.

Desenho e Análise de Processo de Candidatura ao P.2020: estudo de caso via CTC/GP, do IPL

Melhorar o desempenho organizacional, através do (re)desenho dos processos de negócios, é uma premente e desafiadora questão para promover a eficiência e eficácia organizacional. O presente trabalho aborda a Gestão de Processos de Negócio e conceitos que lhe estão subjacente, enquanto ferramenta ao dispor da gestão para planear, modelar, executar, analisar, controlar e melhorar o operacional do processo. Para tal, recorreu-se a um estudo de caso, realizado no Centro de Transferência e Valorização de Conhecimento e Gabinete de Projetos (CTC/GP), do Instituto Politécnico de Leiria (IPL), referente ao processo de candidatura de projetos em co-promoção, no novo quadro comunitário. A escolha deste estudo de caso prendeu-se com o facto de o CTC/GP ser uma unidade orgânica do IPL que, entre outras atividades, articula a academia com o tecido empresarial da região de Leiria, contribuindo para a criação de uma economia de valor acrescentado, suportada por produtos exportáveis e competitivos ao nível da qualidade. Por outro lado, o processo de candidatura de projetos em co-promoção é um processo de grande rendibilidade para o instituto. A grande contribuição deste trabalho foi, por um lado, munir a equipa de um fluxograma do supra citado processo, numa ferramenta de fácil utilização e premiável às mudanças de paradigma e, por outro, apresentar várias questões de partida para investigações futuras.

Síndrome Hipertensiva Específica da Gravidez: Assistência de Enfermagem às grávidas Hospitalizadas na Maternidade do Hospital Batista de Sousa

A Síndrome Hipertensiva Específica da Gravidez é uma das complicações que mais tem afetado as mulheres grávidas em Cabo Verde, considerada uma das primeiras causas de morte materna-fetal no mundo. Sua etiologia continua desconhecida, no entanto, fatores de risco como a primiparidade, a multiparidade, a idade materna e a obesidade destacam-se como mais prevalentes entre as grávidas hospitalizadas na Maternidade do Hospital Batista de Sousa. A sua agressividade acarreta um vasto leque de consequências psicológicas tanto para a mãe como para a família, uma vez que é fortemente associado a sentimentos de medo, preocupação e por vezes à morte materno-fetal. Não é conhecida uma cura específica para tal enfermidade, mas sabe-se que os sinais e sintomas começam a desaparecer automaticamente após a expulsão do feto e da placenta. O presente trabalho pretende abordar uma problemática que realça a importância da assistência de enfermagem às grávidas hospitalizadas, de modo a prevenir possíveis complicações que possam surgir e que pode trazer consequências para o binómio mãe-filho. Para alcançar o objetivo utilizou-se a metodologia qualitativa do tipo exploratório com uma abordagem fenomenológica utilizando como instrumento de recolha de informações a entrevista estruturada que foi aplicada a quatro (4) enfermeiras da Enfermaria da Maternidade do Hospital Batista de Sousa. Os resultados apontaram que os profissionais de saúde sabem da sua responsabilidade com essas grávidas, e que fazem o que estiver ao alcance para prevenir as complicações. Também constatou-se que as enfermeiras apelam por mais formações e um espaço devidamente equipado e monitorizado para uma melhor assistência a essas grávidas.

Twitter e ciberativismo: o movimento social da hashtag #ForaMicarla em Natal-RN

The spatial and temporal fluidity conditioned by the technologies of social interaction online have been allowing that collective actions of protest and activism arise every day in cyberspace - the cyber-activism. If before these actions were located in geographical boundaries, today's demands and mobilizations extrapolate the location, connect to the global, and at the same time, return to the regional through digital virtuality. Within this context of the relationship between digital technology and global flow of sociability, emerges in October 2010 the social movement of the hashtag "#ForaMicarla", which means the dissatisfaction of cibernauts from Natal of Twitter with the current management of the municipality of Natal-RN, Micarla de Sousa (Green Party). We can find in the center of this movement and others who appeared in the world at the same time a technological condition of Twitter, with the hashtag "#". Given this scenario, this research seeks to analyze how the relationship of the agents of movement hashtag "ForaMicarla", based on the principle that it was formed in the Twitter network and is maintained on the platform on a daily basis, it can create a new kind of political culture. Thus, this study discusses theoretically the importance of Twitter and movements that emerge on the platform and through it to understand the social and political demands of the contemporary world and this public sphere, which now seems to include cyberspace

Povoações, freguesias e vilas na Paraíba Colonial: Pombal e Sousa, 1697-1800

The towns presently named Pombal and Sousa, located in the hinterland of the State of Paraíba, Brazil, still keep vestiges of the colonization process they went through along the 18th and 19th centuries, when they both emerged as settlement nuclei in the extreme West of the then captaincy of Paraíba and attained the status of freguesia and vila in a later period. This research aims to comprehend the process of urban formation and development of the colonial urban nuclei of Pombal and Sousa as they became povoados (hamlets), freguesias (parishes) and vilas (small urban communities with a local government), according to territorial expansion policies implemented by the Portuguese government from 1697 to 1800. The choice of the two urban settlements for this survey lies in the fact that they were part of the great conquest and colonization program undertaken by the Portuguese Crown. Another aspect that was considered was the fact that those towns are the oldest urban nuclei of Paraíba s hinterland. They came into being as early as in the times of the colony, thus producing a favorable environment to the study of the changes that occurred in the captaincy s hinterland scenery resulting from the process of formation and development of the colonial urban space. Three fundamental categories of analysis were defined since they have a direct bearing upon the urban configuration of the two colonization nuclei: povoado, freguesia and vila. The three of them are related to civil and ecclesiastic jurisdictions. Field, documentation and bibliography surveys were undertaken in order to develop the study. They allowed for the finding of vestiges of the old, colonial urban structures and for the development of theoretical analysis based on present-day studies of issues relating to the colonial urban history. The study purposes were, therefore, to try to understand how the old urban nuclei of Pombal and Sousa fit in the territorial expansion policies undertaken by the Portuguese government; to relate the process of urban formation and development of such nuclei with the categories of analysis povoação-freguesia-vila by discussing the relations and influences they exert over one another and their territory, as well as to unveil, as much as possible, the configuration the urban spaces that were shaped along the 18th century
