Estudo da viabilidade de implementação do método de gerenciamento Scrum na construção civil

Abstract

The major challenge in the Construction industry is to stay within the planned timeframe for project completion. Increasing competitiveness emphasizes the need for enhanced productivity along with effective cost reduction. Faced with a lack of evolution, the Construction industry feels the necessity to adapt its procedures to achieve service quality. Nevertheless, it exhibits a rigid attitude towards innovations, and as a result, there is little adoption of agile methods like Scrum, which has been widely employed in task management in other fields. Scrum is a methodology used for project management that can handle changes in planning over time by updating at each stage of the production process. It is a method that promotes better iteration and communication among teams, making the work as simple and objective as possible. In addition to fostering the well-being of the production team and valuing continuous process improvement, it brings significant increases in productivity when implemented correctly. The objective of this work is to conduct a case study to assess the feasibility of implementing the Scrum methodology in the execution of a building project.
