O business process management (BPM) como ferramenta de apoio na gestão de software

Abstract

This work was prepared as a prerequisite for completing the undergraduate course in Computer Engineering at the Pontifical Catholic University of Goiás and was based on the applicability of Kanban, as an agile methodology, highlighting the relevance of its application in the software factory as well as the advantages for the final result of the solution. Therefore, we sought to know the conceptual pillars of the existing Agile Methodologies and the flows required in software development to then understand how this development process management tool can be used as a differential in the stages of building a application. The methodology used to develop this work was through exploratory research in bibliography available as scientific articles, found through the internet, books with related topics and websites. According to the content of this article, it is possible to perceive the relevance of knowledge and on the operation of agile methodologies tools, as allies to guarantee the final delivery, which represents a way to rank the steps in a logical and interdependent flowchart. This is because the application of the Kanban concept makes the information accessible to those involved, for each step to be followed, allowing continuous improvement in the way of performing the tasks that make up the process, representing gains in productivity, application of innovative techniques, automation, cash management and cost reduction with the operation.
