Application of statistical analysis to improve time management of a process modeling project
2019
Abstract This work was the result of a cooperation agreement between the University of Brasilia (UnB) and a security organization. Its goal was to model the logistic processes of the company to assist in the modernization of a control system for the management of materials. The project was managed in a dynamic model, through the monitoring and control of activities executed during its various stages. The development of a control system enabled the detection of discrepancies between what was planned and how it was performed, identifying its causes and which actions to take to ensure that the project got back on track according to the planned schedule and budget. The main objective of this article was to identify which elements controlled by the project affected its execution time. With that knowledge, it was possible to improve the planning of the next phases of the project. To this end, we performed a case study of exploratory aspect and quantitative nature to provide information on the object and guide the formulation of hypotheses. The qualitative analysis of the execution time of the modeling identified two dependent variables - systematic version and team - out of the four evaluated. The quantitative analysis studied two variables - number of modifications and number of elements -, which did not indicate evidence of correlation with the aforementioned time.
