Propuesta de Marco de Trabajo para el Estudio Sistémico de Riesgos en Proyectos.

Abstract

This project was an investigation of two concepts, the first project management as the proposed PMI in PMBOK and the other, systemic thinking, which are studied situations (problems) as a system and observe their behavior (as well as their variables) in time. Through this research found a way to combine both concepts into one new: the Causal Study of Project Risks. This new concept comes from a void found by applying the principles of systemic thinking to the processes of risk management area of knowledge of PMBoK, in which, as noted, are not studied in depth the causes of risks, in order to find relationships between them and generate a model which displays all the risks and how they interact. The framework developed aims to make use of systemic thinking through the causal study of each project risk and find the relationship of the same by the search for causes (or variables) shared (or common), this creates a risk that the director can more efficiently manage projects, complemented by other processes in the risk management area of knowledge of PMI. This framework can be viewed as a process, which complements the already established processes within the process management; this paper proposes an aggregation of the same to this area, so that the project manager has a tool for an efficient risk management.
