Plan de proyecto para la mitigación del riesgo de afectación por crecientes en la población que habita alrededor de la Quebrada Singararé, Municipio de Pelaya, Cesar basado en mejores prácticas del PMBOK®

Abstract

This thesis develops a project plan to mitigate flood risk for the population living around the Singararé Stream in Pelaya, Cesar. Following PMBOK (Project Management Body of Knowledge) best practices, the project ensures efficient and sustainable management to protect the community. The plan covers the initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, control, and closure phases of the project. Its comprehensive approach includes risk identification and assessment, and the design of mitigation strategies, such as the construction of a concrete and stone retaining wall. This wall will act as a physical barrier to divert or retain floodwaters, protecting homes, roads, and critical areas. The proposal focuses on reducing the impact of flooding, ensuring community safety, and minimizing property damage. It also promotes resilience and community participation, which are key to effective risk management. The PMBOK, Sixth Edition approach provides a clear basis for defining project objectives, scope, resources, schedule, and budget. While technical actions, such as wall construction, are part of the technical content, their management follows PMBOK guidelines to ensure adequate control. This plan strengthens the community's ability to adapt to adverse events by combining project management with community resilience strategies.
