Implantação de escritório de gestão de projetos na administração pública municipal

Abstract

The purpose of this work consists in demonstrating the viability for the implementation of a Project Management Office in municipal governments, intending to increase efficiency and effectiveness of project accomplishment in public sphere, through the PMBoK – “Project Management Body of Knowledge” good practice tool. The work presents concepts of project administration, project management office, and an analysis about the possibility of its implementation in public institutions from Rio de Janeiro’s municipality experience. That way, this study intends to demonstrate how an adaptation of an essentially private tool in public sphere can contribute to better service supply for the population. For this purpose, it is necessary to modify institutional culture, encouraging servant’s engagement, through training actions able to generate involvement until the high municipal direction, narrowing the government–population relationship and promoting integration between institution agencies, pursuing excellence in municipal administration.
