LA SEGURIDAD COMO ÁREA DE CONOCIMIENTO DE LA GESTIÓN DE PROYECTOS

Abstract

Today, the concept of security plays a key role in the success of a project because their mismanagement may lead to the occurrence of fatal accidents, to their delay, cancellation or economic impact. This communication arises from the need to include "security" as a new knowledge area to be integrated in version 5 of the PMI PMBOK, contrasting with other certification international models, such as IPMA, PRINCE 2 and P2M. In the research, the security is defined from three perspectives: physical, information and business continuity. Project management models are analyzed, in terms of security, from the most important international certification organisms and a conceptual model is proposed. As a result, the processes of this new area of knowledge with their inputs, outputs, tools and techniques are detailed during the project life cycle. In addition, the relationship with the permanent organization is taken into account, criterion to be included in the development of project management documentation.
