Propuesta de automatización y mejora de los procesos de gestión de proyectos de titulación y tesis de grado de la FIS

Abstract

This paper proposes formalizing and improving the work process management degree from the Department of Engineering Systems at EPN. Currently this process is not formalized, the activities of this process are performed manually, there is no official guide causing problems process efficiency, information redundancy and waste of time. The participatory approach proposed by ISEA Methodology was followed to solve these problems. This methodology proposed as lifecycle four phases: identification, simulation, evaluation and process improvement. The application of the methodology allowed the lifting of the process, development of a manual, identification of difficulties related to the process and the proposed improvement actions. In addition, a proposal for automation of the process is performed by using the IBM-BPM suite. Finally, usability and functionality tests were conducted to verify the correct operation of the process and the degree of acceptability of the application.
