Empreendedorismo na engenharia civil: como montar sua própria empresa

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to promote the basic knowledge necessary to undertake in the civil engineering sector. Through data collection, it has been identified that Brazil is not a country with favorable conditions for entrepreneurship. Therefore, those who wish to pursue this path must have sufficient knowledge to deal with this factor and the adversities that come with starting a business. To increase the chances of success, it is necessary to choose a niche market to operate in, as this way the company is more likely to become a reference in the industry and consequently attract more clients. To be able to operate, it is necessary to regularize the company through registration with the necessary authorities, obtain operating permits, and have qualified technical professionals, as well as comply with the current laws for the field of operation. Managing a company involves considering a high number of variables, so the use of tools that assist in this process is essential for the success of the enterprise. Having a well-elaborated business plan, for example, allows the company to have better control of the path it is taking. During the operation of the business, it is possible that it may face periods of recession in the industry, and the company must be prepared for such situations. Therefore, it is important to pre-prepare a crisis management plan to minimize damages. In addition, the company should constantly seek innovation, as remaining stagnant in a dynamic market is risky. Therefore, investing in creating an innovative culture is essential for the sustainability of the company in the market. To achieve success, it is crucial to have clarity in defining the vision, mission, goals, and objectives of the company. Employees play a crucial role in this process. Finally, it is essential for the organization to properly manage its available human and financial resources to maximize its results.
