Abstract

The opening of communications in Costa rica is given by the commitmentes acquired by the country when the Free Trade Agreedment between The Dominican Republic, Central America and the United States was signsd. Because of that, transnacional corporations as Movistar and Claro were able to introduce themselvesas private cellular operators, in order to provide the service that was previously exclusive for ICE. At the moment, Insyte Costa Rica S.A comes to participate as a contractor for construction projects of towers for antennas of cellular signal transmission. The present investigacion developed a proposed methodological guide for professional project management in the form of "turnkey projects" (preliminary studies, design and licensing process, construction and equipment installation and commissioning to the cellular networks towers). At the same time, ti is argued that this analysis would cover the nine knowledge areas including integration, scope, time, cost, product quality, human resourses, communications, risk, procurement, environment, industrial safety and occupational health, with the techniques, tools and policies to ensure that, all together, constitute the guidance of project management for this company. To make this project, it was evaluated the actual maturity level in Professional Proyect Management as well as a SWOT analysis of the company, to consider the competitive situation of the organization , and to design an appropriate proposal. Also, it was identified all the actual tools used by the company for projects framed in PMBOK within the correlation table of Process Groups vs. Knowledge Areas.
