PGCP - Plataforma para Gerenciamento Colaborativo de Projetos

Collaborative Systems are designed to support individuals in order to solve a problem together, or cooperatively (or collaboratively). Such systems have the advantage of not requiring the presence in the same location of the participants. The basis of any Collaborative System is communication, where users interact with each other in order to exchange information. Communication among individuals is accomplished through collaborative tools such as chat, email, document repository, etc.. Using these tools, companies can reduce operational costs, saving on travel and accommodation of its employees to attend meetings. The project members only need a computer with internet access to use collaborative tools. Project management is essential to the quality of the nal product. To perform a proper management, methodologies must be applied using methods, tools and procedures. There are some phases that are considered generic for all software process models, they are: de nition, development, maintenance and activity to support the software process. In this paper is described a platform for project management using the concepts and features of Collaborative Systems. The goal of this platform is to unify various collaborative tools (such as chat and document repository) in a project management system. Using the system, it becomes possible to manage projects, and the ability to maintain an active constant communication between members of each project

Proposta de um processo de categorização de fornecedores para a execução de projetos

Nowadays, in business environment, organizations seek to differentiate through special programs and plans, taking the concepts of sustainability, performance and benefits generated for society. Based in this competitive environment, as companies depend on the use of subcontractors to perform services for your different customers, the work performed by them is directly related to the vision created by the final customer’s vision of the company responsible for the project. Considering that the supplier hired to execute the project does not share the strategic concepts related to the level of services to be offered to the final customers, thus creating the need to develop methods that enable the alignment between the project owner, responsible for preparing the executive project, and the supplier, responsible for the execution of the work. Tangent to this need, it was necessary to create a method of evaluation and categorization for suppliers to hired for the projects. As a result it has been proposed a process of categorization of suppliers, through the restriction of possible companies to be hired for a project designed to promote alignment between strategies and continuous improvement of the solutions offered to the market

Fatores críticos de sucesso em projetos colaborativos na indústria de máquinas agrícolas

Os projetos colaborativos de novos produtos são fundamentais para que empresas aumentem o grau de inovação em seus produtos. Bons resultados dependem da identificação de fatores críticos de sucesso (FCS) e não há tais estudos na Indústria de Máquinas Agrícolas (IMA). O artigo verifica se os FCS identificados na literatura poderiam ser utilizados em levantamentos do setor e se há outros a considerar. Apresenta revisão bibliográfica e levantamento em empresa com elevado nível de maturidade em PDP frente às empresas da IMA. Empregou-se o método de estudo de caso único, do tipo incorporado. A unidade de análise são projetos do tipo colaborativo e de sucesso: dois deles no total. Identificam-se fatores que podem não ser críticos, apesar de apontados pela literatura; indica-se a existência de novos FCS e reforça-se a importância dos fatores ligados à garantia de igualdade e fatores universais de sucesso.
