A NEW METHODOLOGY FOR DECISION-MAKING IN MANAGING THE RECRUITMENT OF CONSTRUCTIVE PROJECTS.Summary: The evolution of the construction market has created a need for progress on issues relating to project management, especially in those processes that occur at initial stages where decisions have to take a greater impact and can optimize resources and deadlines . One of the processes that occur at the planning stage is the recruitment of projects. Despite the existence of numerous inputs on the subject, most focused on industrial projects, usually in practice management recruitment develops an empirical manner, which limits the benefits they can get the project in this process. Therefore, in this thesis develops a methodology for managing recruitment, high practicality and focused on construction projects, which guides the property during the recruitment process of constructive projects. Similarly, we define a mathematical tool (based on multicriteria analysis), which allows the property to conduct decision-making at every stage of the process, taking into account not only economic but also environmental issues, health and safety, social, functional , deadlines, etc.. Both management methodology as a tool to support decision has been verified through extensive field campaign. This campaign was conducted through interviews and surveys many construction professionals, both public and private Spanish, with his experience verified and improved proposals presented in this dissertation. Also, it is noteworthy that this thesis has been carried out under the project MIVES (Project of the Ministry of Education and Science Spanish; MAT 2002-04310).
REDUCING THE RISK IN THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT OF HARNESSING WIND RESOURCESAuthor: Lara Coira Manuel. Year: 2005. University: A CORUÑA [ www.udc.es]. Place of defense: Escuela Politécnica Superior de Ferrol. Place of preparation: E.P. Superior de Ferrol. Summary: There are numerous cases of projects harnessing wind resources that have suffered technical problems and management, not a few cases with significant problems that have resulted in a very different profitability than expected, and even there are some cases that have ended with failure the project, which has not come to be constructed, or already has been built to destroy. The purpose of the work is summarized here was the reduction of risk in the project management of harnessing wind resources in Spain through the identification, analysis and response to the risks of any kind that may pose threats or opportunities to the objectives of such projects , in particular to the objectives of scope, time, cost, quality and profitability. This Doctoral thesis is based on a catalog of forty-four risk factors in projects harnessing wind resources in Spain, developed with the specific honoree professional experience in such projects and collaboration and experience in project management and management risk, professional and academic, the directors of this thesis. Each risk factor identified is accompanied by their corresponding qualitative assessments of likelihood and impact and their answers to it. As mentioned and the top of current knowledge in this field, developed a methodology for risk management in the conduct of this type of project. Both documents (catalog and methodology) were validated by conducting an analysis Delphi conducted with industry professionals wind Spanish, and significant experience with different viewpoints: the lawyer, the developer and builder of wind farms, the civil servant, or the consultant engineering firms em. They also assessed the applicability, effectiveness and potential difficulties in implementing the proposed methodology. Based on all this in this thesis sets out the methodological guidelines essential for reducing the risk in the project management of harnessing wind resources in Spain. Finally, it suggests further developments to study the applicability of the method in other countries, not only on projects but also in other wind projects harnessing natural energy resources, such as hydro, termosolares or photovoltaic, among others.
