Diretrizes para o planejamento e orçamento de obras de reformas no âmbito dos negócios de impacto social

Abstract

Social Impact Businesses (SIB) have emerged as viable alternatives to address social problems with private sector competencies. Some of these businesses operate in housing, addressing housing reform solutions for low-income families, in a financially accessible way. This is very important given the existence of almost 25 million inadequate homes in the country that are still subject to improvement. On the other hand, the renovation business faces a number of difficulties due to its specificities, especially regarding the planning of works and their costs. These challenges can be potentialized when considering reforms carried out by NIS due to the low financial availability of the target audience; which can compromise the extent of the impacts generated by the businesses. In view of this, the general objective of this work is to propose guidelines for the processes of budgeting and planning of works, for renovation works carried out by NIS. The research methodology adopted was Design Science Research (DSR), which was divided into four stages. The first is the awareness stage, in which a literature review and a data survey with a sample of NIS are carried out. The second stage is the suggestion and development stage, in which the "guidelines" artifact is developed to mitigate the identified problems. The third stage is the evaluation, in which the developed artifact is evaluated by professionals working in the area; and finally, there is the conclusion stage presenting the discussions and conclusions obtained. This research contributes to the literature on NIS for housing renovations, given the gap in planning and budgeting for this type of work, as well as applying knowledge from the field of civil engineering to new arrangements for the private sector.
