Desenvolvimento de um framework para acompanhamento de cooperações técnicas entre empresas e o IFBA

Abstract

Collaboration between educational institutions and companies is fundamental for innovation. However, a gap is observed in the procedures adopted by the Federal Institute of Education, Science and T echnology of Bahia (IFBA) regarding the monitoring of the execution of projects resulting from technical cooperation agreements and covenants. Although normative documents guide the formalization of these partnerships, there is still a lack of clear guidelines, indicators, and metrics that enable effective monitoring and evaluation of operational management, compromising result measurement and efficiency in resource application. Given this reality , and meeting a demand from the Jequié Campus, this research aimed to develop a framework for monitoring the execution of these projects at IFBA. The research adopted a qualitative approach, through bibliographic and documentary research, analysis of institutional regulations, internal processes, and applicable legislation, culminating in the elaboration and proposed validation of the framework. The framework was organized involving stages ranging from the formalization of a new partnership and document analysis, through monitoring with forms and communication, to the issuance of opinions and recognition of teams with better indicators. As a main contribution, it is expected that the developed framework fills the identified gap, offering an applicable instrument that optimizes management, promotes transparency , and strengthens technology transfer and institutional innovation through technical cooperations.
