Orientador: Ariovaldo Denis Granja / Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Faculdade de Engenharia Civil, Arquitetura e Urbanismo / Made available in DSpace on 2018-08-27T15:53:50Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Muianga_ElisaAtaliaDaniel_M.pdf: 6166290 bytes, checksum: f57a311dba2efbb258b10424ee9b1691 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015 / Resumo: Desvios de custos e prazos ainda são um grande desafio na construção civil. A execução do empreendimento é muitas vezes repleta de atrasos e custos adicionais, causados por vários fatores, que acabam encarecendo a construção. Em determinados países como Moçambique, as causas específicas não são verdadeiramente conhecidas, existem apenas percepções intuitivas e fragmentadas sobre os fatores que influenciam estes desvios. O objetivo desta pesquisa é apurar os fatores críticos que mais contribuem para a ocorrência de desvios de custos e prazos em empreendimentos do subsetor edificações de Moçambique. Para a busca de resultados de estudos primários, foi utilizada a Systematic Literature Review (Revisão sistemática de literatura ¿ RSL). Informações relevantes foram extraídas dos artigos selecionados e, posteriormente, sintetizadas para determinar uma estrutura de categorização e respectivos fatores responsáveis por estes desvios. A literatura existente até o momento sobre desvios de custos e prazos se mostrou multifacetada, com 92 artigos publicados em 46 fontes diferentes. A maioria das pesquisas teve como foco o estudo de alguns destes fatores em particular, enquanto que esta pesquisa procurou classificá-los e sintetizá-los de forma a possibilitar uma visão mais abrangente sobre o fenômeno. Assim, nove categorias foram identificadas e propostas com base em seus determinantes: (i) atividades e equipamentos; (ii) gerenciamento; (iii) projeto e documentação; (iv) financiamento; (v) aspectos ambientais e econômicos; (vi) organização; (vii) contratos; (viii) alterações de escopo e (ix) relações governamentais. Além disso, 95 fatores de influência para a ocorrência destes desvios foram identificados e anexados às categorias pertinentes. Após a RSL, o método de pesquisa para a sequência deste estudo é o Survey. Para isso, foi aplicado um questionário para determinação da relevância dos fatores de desvios de custos e prazos obtidos por meio da RSL, junto a 272 construtoras moçambicanas. Os resultados apresentaram 20 fatores estatisticamente relevantes para a ocorrência de desvios em empreendimentos moçambicanos. Com base nos fatores, foram apresentadas diretrizes para a redução dos impactos que esses fatores causam durante os empreendimentos que poderão ser validadas em estudos futuros / Abstract: Cost and time overruns are recurrent challenges in construction projects. In project implementation there are often delays and additional costs caused by several factors that increase the budget of construction. In Mozambique, the underlying causes related to this issue are not well understood. This study is a first attempt to determine the influence factors of cost and time overruns in this context. This research aims to find the influence factors that contribute to the occurrence of cost and time overruns, and to establish their criticality in Mozambican construction projects. A systematic literature review (SLR) was carried out in a methodic fashion to ensure it is scrutinizingly and repeatable. Relevant information was extracted from the selected articles and subsequently synthetized in order to categorize and identify the influence factors, which trigger time and cost overruns. The literature on time and cost overruns in construction is contrasting with 92 articles from 46 different reference sources. Most research has focused on the study of some of these factors in particular, while this research sought to classify and synthesize the factors in order to enable a new and more comprehensive view of this phenomenon. Nine categories were identified and defined on the basis of their determinants: (i) activities and equipments; (ii) management; (iii) design and documentation; (iv) financing; (v) environmental and economic; (vi) organization; (vii) contracts; (viii) scope changes and (ix) governmental relations. Moreover, 95 influencing factors were identified and classified accordingly. A survey has been designed to collect data from construction managers in Mozambique in 272 Mozambican constructions, seeking to find out the critical influence factors related to cost and time overruns. The results showed 20 relevant factors for the occurrence of cost and time overrun in Mozambican construction. With the basis of factors, guidelines were presented for reducing the impact that these factors cause for the enterprises that can be validated in future studies / Mestrado / Arquitetura e Construção / Mestra em Engenharia Civil

From survival activities to industrial strategies: Local systems of inter-firm cooperation in Peru

Tavara, Jose Ignacio 01 January 1993 (has links)
This dissertation analyzes the conditions that explain the dynamism of socio-territorial systems of firms and examines how these systems can foster local industrialization and reduce urban poverty in Peru. The theoretical argument builds upon the concepts of external economies, industrial districts and the social embeddedness of economic action, providing an alternative interpretation of the informal sector. It draws on field research and case studies conducted in Peru between August 1991 and August 1992. The findings support the view that the dynamism of small-scale manufacturing results from the development of collective entrepreneurial capabilities and new forms of cooperation and competition. Cooperation takes various forms such as subcontracting, joint marketing, and the sharing of inputs, tools and information. When firms compete on product design and the search for new markets rather than by lowering wages, there is scope for self-sustained expansion. In the first case study (El Porvenir, Trujillo) inter-firm cooperation was based upon ethnic homogeneity, kinship bonds and social norms of equity and reciprocity. Learning experiences within two larger shoe factories stimulated the organization of spin-off firms and networks of complementary specialized producers. These networks subsequently outcompeted the larger factories, expanded their share of the national market and are now exporting part of their output to neighboring countries. In the second case (Villa El Salvador, Lima) the state, foreign donor agencies and producers' associations played a more prominent role. The construction of an industrial park and service centers was sought to generate scale economies in the provision of productive services and entrepreneurial functions that were beyond the reach of individual producers. The main challenges were associated with the definition of property rights and the generation of stable institutional structures to operate these centers as self-sustained organizations. The study suggests that specialized support should be directed to those clusters of firms with higher growth potential and stronger linkages with the local economy. The constitution of quasi-public organizations can strengthen local leadership and nurture the formation of political entrepreneurs. The dissertation underscores the dynamism of socially embedded enterprises and institutions as the foundation for democracy and development.

Learning resistance in West Timor

Campbell-Nelson, Karen Janelle 01 January 2003 (has links)
This case study, set in the south central highlands of West Timor, Indonesia, presents a range of strategies used by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and local farmers to resist the mining of two marble peaks. The narrative, set within the context of political developments in Indonesia in recent years, is presented through several genres to enhance an ethnographic exploration of learning in a context of resistance. Some of the issues explored in the telling of the tale include gender and resistance, and the juxtaposition of NGO and farmer strategies of resistance as shaped by their different relationships to social and political institutions of the nation-state. The study, however, is not limited only to a discussion of strategies, the “what and how” of resistance—resistance as curriculum—but also looks at resistance as a learning regime, the heuristic occasion for the articulation of identity in which those on the underside of power assert human identity over an identity as victims. The analysis of resistance as learning regime draws on a local hermeneutical framework that situates recognition as a response to the epistemological violation inherent in the mining, rehearsal as response to cultural violation, and reciprocity as a response to economic violation. This privileging of recognition, rehearsal, and reciprocity is the perspective from which I argue that subsistence agriculture is a way of life that integrates rather than separates cultural, ecological, economic, and epistemological aspects of identity. As such, it is a viable alternative to projects of unsustainable economic development, such as mining marble, that tear apart ecological systems and the ways of life embedded in those systems in order to control them.

The application of AC 122 to research and development, in the pharmaceutical industry : conceptual issues and implementation concerns : a case study

de Waal, Margaret Suzanne January 1998 (has links)
Includes bibliographical references. / Research and development spending has become increasingly important over the last two decades. Despite this, the South African business community has largely ignored the South African accounting standard for research and development costs, AC 122, issued in 1994. A review of the comments received from a number of respondents to the exposure draft to AC 122 and it's international equivalent, lAS 9 (revised), suggests that the implementation difficulties associated with AC 122 are the major reason for the apparent lack of acceptance of AC 122 by the local accounting profession and industry. This research attempts to identify these implementation concerns, specifically in relation to the pharmaceutical industry, so as to provide guidance for implementing AC 122 in this industry. From an analysis performed of AC 122 and the responses of a number of members of the local and global business community, three main implementation problems associated with AC 122 were identified. These are (a) the appropriate allocation of R & D costs between research costs and development costs, (b) implementing the requirement to capitalise development costs, and (c) determining the most appropriate method and time period for amortising a development asset. The identification of these problems also highlighted that AC 122 is deficient in implementation guidance and requires the exercise of an unusually high level of subjective judgement. This study illustrates that it is possible to develop guidelines for overcoming the problems identified in the pharmaceutical industry. This research also provides an approach for similar research in other R & D intensive industries. However, the time and cost of performing such an exercise is likely to limit the industry approach to accounting for R & D costs. The research led to the conclusion that the accounting standard for research and development costs in South Africa is difficult to apply consistently in practice, and requires amendment if it is to obtain the support of the accountancy profession and commerce.
