Issues such as acquiring inadequate equipment, lack of integration between departments, and prioritizing initial costs over quality jeopardize both patient safety and financial resources. This study analyzes the medical equipment acquisition process in a medium-sized hospital, aiming to identify critical failures and propose improvements based on management tools. The research employed a mixed-methods approach, combining document analysis, technological asset evaluation, and the application of qualitative and quantitative methods. Results showed an average equipment conformity rate of 71.56% in May 2024, increasing to 75.32% in November. Recommendations include implementing standardized protocols, life-cycle-based equipment analysis, and periodic audits to optimize technological management, contributing to hospital infrastructure advancements and greater efficiency in healthcare services.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Aquisição de Equipamentos MédicosGestão HospitalarEngenharia ClínicaParque TecnológicoConformidade de EquipamentosbachelorThesis
