Gerenciamento de projetos: uma análise empírica entre o PMBOK® e o Scrum, centrada no desenvolvimento de produtos

Abstract

Project management is a subject that is becoming increasingly popular in large companies. That is happening because many organizations are project oriented, which demands efficient and effective management of all activities and tasks to achieve a satisfactory result. However, there is no single project management methodology. The present paper aims to present the PMI methodology, which has already been consolidated in the market for a long time through the PMBOK®, and a new trend – the Scrum - emerged in the late twentieth century, which brings a more dynamic and flexible approach to management practices. To do so, after the theoretical reference has been established, a comparative analysis was exposed between the two methodologies, presenting the strengths and weaknesses of each one, as well as in which situations one stands out from the other, being suggested the best practices of project management for a product development team.
