Abstract

With technological growth, it is necessary tools that provide an appropriate analysis of the infinity of data that is generated every day. Observatories are a useful and necessary tool for synthesizing these data, providing transparency and aiding in decision making. The present work consisted in the development of an observatory of projects for the Center for practices in Informatics of the Federal University of Ceará – Campus Quixadá. The research will follow an existing model in the literature for the development of the observatory. The research method chosen to carry out this work is Design Science Research. The survey of requirements for the development of the observatory was carried out through interviews with the NPI management team and through a survey answered by students from the UFC Quixadá campus, in order to capture the necessary requirements and functionalities to the project observatory. The process of evaluating the developed artifact took place through a focus group of students, through an interview with the NPI management team and through an analysis in the light of the model. Finally, the work presents as a result the NPI project observatory developed, as well as the knowledge and lessons acquired with the development of this artifact.
