Estudo de caso: gerenciamento de projeto de consultoria em indústria alimentícia

Abstract

This paper aims to present the project management theory based on the PMBOK (Project Management Body of Knowledge) guide, created by the renowned Project Management Institute (PMI), applied in a consulting project carried out in a dairy industry. Project management is divided into five phases (initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and closure), plus 10 other knowledge areas. This paper focuses on the planning part, to show how this theory can be applied to plan practice-proven consulting projects for a project that was planned and executed on the basis of PMBOK. In the study, we adopted the steps that PMBOK recommends and also how these steps were followed in the planning of the consulting project.
