The Brazilian government’s ambitious plans for growth center on its Growth Acceleration Program (PAC). As part of the PAC, Brazil needs to extend and improve its transportation infrastructure with an investment of US$70 billion in relevant capital projects over the next five years. As the national department reporting to Brazil’s Transportation Ministry, DNIT is responsible for the Federal Transportation System administration, maintenance, improvement, expansion and operation. Recognizing that its management capabilities needed to be improved to support a project portfolio of this scale, DNIT (Departamento Nacional de Infraestrutura de Transportes) sought a third-party partner to help design, implement, manage and govern a new program for managing its project portfolio.

In response, Accenture, partnering with a local engineering consulting firm, was appointed to provide strategic, tactical and operational management services including:

• Establishing a master PMO to develop, support and implement a new project management model for DNIT’s entire portfolio and monitor and report on the construction, maintenance and operations work carried out by third parties hired directly by DNIT, reporting the status and monitoring progress and risks to DNIT.

• Establishing a Strategic Management Office to develop, support, implement and run DNIT’s strategic planning, governance, corporate risks management and business process management.

• Optimizing and automating critical business processes (i.e development of engineering projects), including the implementation of management tools, information structures and enhanced corporate governance mechanisms;

• Implementing collaborative environments and a situation room, using a Balanced Scorecard of more than 100 KPIs, organized on sectorial

dashboards providing management/strategic information for decision-making.

• Back-office procurement, marketing, administrative and technical support.

After 24 months into the project, DNIT has a complete set of processes, tools, reports and governance mechanisms that improve DNIT’s delivery capabilities. Accenture worked with DNIT to implement 100+ new processes and 100 new KPIs for more than 30 strategic to operational dashboards. Additionally, we help operate 15 situation rooms and the strategy monitoring and control meetings, monitor and help manage 150+ construction projects, 380 maintenance contracts and more than 50,000 km of roads operation.

As an example of tangible results, the situation rooms supported by multidimensional dashboards, tied to a governance model, have helped DNIT respond three times faster to project problems and risks, and build effective and integrated solutions. DNIT expects to see a decrease in projects running over time and budget, quality improvement and reduced scope deviation and execution faults by the start of the third year of the project.
