Abstract

The project management has been applied in many areas in special Information Technology (IT) companies have increasingly using project management methodologies. Institutions that performs IT projects periodically have demands for human resources allocation. This task is normally done manually, which makes it expensive and sensitive to under allocations. It is needed allocate all of the resources in the most several project activities, always paying attention to the different affinities that the professionals have according to their profile. In this scenario, the aim of this study is to evaluate and develop structured mathematical programming models to optimize the allocation of human resources from different profiles into activities of IT projects. The research developed was of type applied and explanatory, regarding to the nature and the objectives; experimental, regarding to the procedure; and quantitative, regarding to the approach. The experiments were done using real data projects extracted from a software factory, which in general lines the results revealed a cost saving of 15% in labor hours and higher agility in adopting mathematical models to define the allocations. This results contribute to IT project be completed better plans in budget and schedule.
