Estudo do uso de software para mitigar dificuldades de aderência ao planejamento e acompanhamento de obras verticais.

Abstract

In an industry that ranks among the least productive and is constantly challenged to deliver high quality while reducing costs, having effective construction planning and control linked to lean thinking is essential for survival. Despite the benefits of planning, there is still a significant lack of attention and negligence towards construction project planning, resulting in decision-making without any reliable data on project progress. This research aimed to map the difficulties in construction planning and control, focusing on medium and large-scale building projects, and demonstrating the utilization of a market tool to mitigate the identified challenges. The study employed quantitative analysis and characterization of the mentioned solution, aiming to identify the primary difficulties that companies face regarding project planning and control. Furthermore, it was observed that despite the growing adoption of lean construction principles in Brazil, practical implementation remains challenging, and technology can be a viable means to address these difficulties.
