Introdução de Metodologias Ágeis de Gestão de Projetos em uma Equipe de Aerodesign

Abstract

The project management area is a study field under explored in the aviation context because of the technical difficulty in the product’s execution. The aim of this work is to make an approach of project management with agile methodologies and apply this knowledge in an Aerodesigns team because that is where new aircraft’s designers are born. This methodology was chosen because is the most modern way in this area and the most used by the biggest software’s enterprises in the world. Unfortunately, the aviation industry holds traditional cultures and systems which motivated the search of innovation solutions for this kind of project in this works, besides the new system implementation, new studies in the other management areas holds by the team but with none scientific bases, were developed. Thus, we looked for all the scientific theory in marketing, people management, financial management, and project management and bring them to the engineering universe. The study and practical application were incorporated in Equipe Tucano de Aerodesign, which represents the Federal University of Uberlândia in competitions promoted by SAE. Thus, the actual conditionals of the team were explored and new project management methodologies were offered, besides that, all activities were mapped and a new backlog was proposed to get the areas ready to develop the activities ruled by scientific fundamentals.
