Abstract
El Proyecto Final de Graduación tuvo como objetivo proponer un modelo de gestión de proyectos basado en Disciplined Agile Delivery (DAD) adaptado a la realidad de las Sociedades Bíblicas Unidas (SBU), con el fin de fortalecer su capacidad de planificación y ejecución en un entorno global diverso con recursos limitados. El objetivo principal fue diseñar un modelo híbrido que combinara la gobernanza del PMBOK® con la flexibilidad de DAD para mejorar la eficiencia, transparencia y sostenibilidad de los proyectos. En cuanto al proceso metodológico, se realizó una evaluación de madurez ágil a través de encuestas y análisis internos, se identificaron fortalezas y debilidades, y se construyó un modelo piloto con fases progresivas, incorporando las metodologías Scrum, Kanban y enfoque predictivo, así como la herramienta tecnológica Jira y Solomon. El análisis de resultados reveló un nivel de madurez ágil promedio de 2.87 en una escala de 1 a 5, mostrando una cultura organizacional abierta al cambio, pero que necesita refuerzo en su estructura y uso de la tecnología; además, en 2023 las SBU llegaron a 152 millones de personas y tradujo las Escrituras a 106 nuevos idiomas, incluidos 15 lenguajes de señas. Se concluyo fue que la adopción de un modelo DAD contextualizado permite optimizar los recursos, mejorar la coordinación y asegurar la misión social y espiritual, de la organización, con la recomendación de una implementación progresiva a través de pilotos controlados, financiamiento flexible y un catálogo de prácticas ágiles.
The Final Graduation Project aimed to propose a project management model based on Disciplined Agile Delivery (DAD) adapted to the reality of the United Bible Societies (UBS), in order to strengthen their planning and execution capacity in a diverse global environment with limited resources. The main objective was to design a hybrid model that combined PMBOK® governance with the flexibility of DAD to improve the efficiency, transparency, and sustainability of projects. Regarding the methodological process, an agile maturity assessment was carried out through surveys and internal analysis, strengths and weaknesses were identified, and a pilot model was built with progressive phases, incorporating the Scrum, Kanban and predictive approach methodologies and the Jira and Solomon technological tool. The analysis of results revealed an average agile maturity level of 2.87 on a scale of 1 to 5, showing an organizational culture open to change but needing reinforcement in its structure and use of technology; moreover, in 2023 the UBS reached 152 million people and translated the Scriptures into 106 new languages, including 15 sign languages. The conclusion was that the adoption of a contextualized DAD model makes it possible to optimize resources, improve coordination, and ensure the organization’s social and spiritual mission, with the recommendation of a progressive implementation through controlled pilots, flexible financing, and a catalog of agile practices.
