Publicación Estudio de prefactibilidad para la implementación de modelo telemétricamente asistido en el juzgamiento del caballo criollo colombiano(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-03-11) García Zapata, Andrés Eduardo; Diez Benjumea, Jhon MiguelThis study conducts a prefeasibility evaluation for the implementation of a telemetry assisted system designed to support the judging of the Colombian Criollo horse in its four gaits, following the methodological framework established by UNIDO for investment projects. A comprehensive analysis was carried out, including the identification of which variables within the current judging model can be automated, the definition of technological requirements for real-time data capture and processing, and the estimation of costs associated with the integration of sensors, cameras, and digital analysis platforms. The results indicate that the incorporation of telemetry could standardize technical evaluation criteria, reduce subjective variability among judges, and increase the traceability of equine performance in competitive settings. In addition, preliminary evidence shows favorable operational, market, and financial feasibility for its application in equine fairs and breeding farms, supporting its potential as a tool for investment decision-making, scoring, and continuous improvement of horses.Publicación Estudio de prefactibilidad para la creación de una empresa de consultoría asistida por inteligencia artificial para la formulación de proyectos públicos bajo la Metodología General Ajustada, en municipios de categoría 6 del departamento de Antioquia, Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-02-23) Agudelo Ossa, Angélica María; Mosquera Buriticá, Steven; Gómez Salazar, Elkin ArcesioThe formulation of public investment projects under the General Adjusted Methodology (MGA) represents a significant challenge for category 6 municipalities in Colombia, mainly due to structural limitations in technical capacity, availability of information, and specialized human resources. These constraints restrict access to public funding sources and negatively affect the quality and effectiveness of territorial interventions. This study aims to evaluate the pre-feasibility of creating an artificial intelligence–assisted consulting firm designed to support category 6 municipalities in the department of Antioquia in the formulation of public investment projects under the MGA framework. The research adopts an exploratory, descriptive, and analytical scope, based on a mixed-methods approach that integrates qualitative and quantitative analysis. The study follows a pre-feasibility assessment methodology, comprehensively evaluating the market, technical, organizational, legal, financial, and risk components of the proposed initiative. An AI-assisted consulting model was designed, based on natural language processing agents integrated with official government platforms and operated under human supervision schemes. In addition, a financial model was developed considering different pricing scenarios, and project risks were quantified through probabilistic simulation techniques. The results indicate that the project is technically and organizationally feasible and that, under certain pricing scenarios, it presents positive financial indicators. However, its economic sustainability is conditioned by a pricing strategy capable of balancing the service cost structure with the limited payment capacity of category 6 municipalities. It is concluded that AI-assisted consulting constitutes a viable alternative to strengthening public project formulation in contexts of low institutional capacity, provided that it is implemented under principles of control, traceability, and responsible use of technology.Publicación Diagnóstico y análisis de madurez del Sistema de Gestión de Proyectos del Centro de Desarrollo en Innovación (CD+i) de la Facultad de Minas, Universidad Nacional de Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-07) Delgado Quiceno, Manuel Andrés; Tobar Guinand, José MauricioPublicación Identificación de lecciones aprendidas del Programa de Saneamiento Fiscal y Financiero (2016-2020) en la ESE Hospital Materno Infantil Ciudadela Metropolitana de Soledad(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-05-14) De la Ossa de Ávila, Alberto Mario; Guerrero Latorre, Jorge HarleyThe Ciudadela Metropolitana Maternal and Child Hospital, located in the municipality of Soledad, was created by the Soledad Municipal Council under Agreement 005 of August 23, 2000. Since then, its mission has focused on providing comprehensive, differentiated, safe, and humane primary healthcare to patients, their families, and the community. It seeks to guarantee high professional quality—through the comprehensive management of its processes—and social responsibility—through the transmission of knowledge that contributes to healthy lifestyles. This institution has made efforts to develop projects to secure funding from the municipality, the department, and the national government. One such effort is the Fiscal and Financial Recovery Program (PSFF), implemented between 2016 and 2020. Given that projects of this nature continue to be developed today, it is pertinent to analyze the lessons learned during the execution of this program. Furthermore, the hospital has not implemented efforts to identify, analyze, and document lessons learned. Therefore, this work serves as a reference, not only for this institution’s future projects, but also for other territorial entities or hospitals throughout the country that face similar situations.Publicación Estudio de prefactibilidad para la expansión de la bodega Manizales en el municipio de Andalucía, Valle del Cauca(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-02-12) Sánchez Pinto, Jesús David; Gómez Salazar, Elkin ArcesioPublicación Estudio de prefactibilidad para la creación de una empresa de consultoría en transformación digital para microempresas manufactureras en Medellín, usando la metodología Onudi(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-02-22) Moreno Mosquera, Andrea; Posada Pérez, Gonzalo Alberto; Gómez Salazar, Elkin ArcesioPublicación Diseño de una PMO para una empresa del sector manufacturero(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-02-07) Posada Villegas, Alejandro; Henao Arango, María CeciliaPublicación Estudio de prefactibilidad para un curso de educación financiera para estudiantes de los grados 9.°, 10.° y 11.° de instituciones educativas públicas de la ciudad de Medellín(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-28) Gutiérrez Moscoso, Juliana; Patrón Mejía, Carmelina; Gómez Salazar, Elkin ArcesioThis study evaluated the pre-feasibility of implementing a financial education course for 9th, 10th, and 11th-grade students in Medellín’s public schools, with the purpose of strengthening financial literacy and promoting responsible economic decision-making from secondary education. The research was conducted using the methodology of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (ONUDI), complemented by the PMBOK guidelines, and addressed economic, social, technical, political, legal, and risk dimensions. The results show a favorable institutional environment supported by public policies that encourage financial inclusion and the integration of financial education within the school system. At the operational level, a hybrid model (combining in-person and virtual instruction) was identified as the most suitable alternative for the current technological and pedagogical conditions. From a financial perspective, the indicators confirm the project’s feasibility and sustainability. The Net Present Value (NPV) amounts to COP 47,282,987.88, with an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 20% and an Opportunity Cost of 14%, reflecting a positive cost–benefit relationship and a medium-term investment recovery. Overall, the results demonstrate that the course is profitable, relevant, and socially necessary, consolidating itself as an effective educational strategy to promote economic inclusion and strengthen public education in Medellín.Publicación Estudio de prefactibilidad para la constitución y puesta en marcha de un centro de acopio, comercialización y transformación de productos agrícolas para la provincia de Lengupá(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-10) Castilla de la Rosa, Walter Enrique; Cristancho Orjuela, Carlos Andrés; Vega Huertas, Lilian Johana; Henao Arango, María CeciliaPublicación Diagnóstico de la madurez del PMO del Metro de Medellín(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-05) Muñoz Salazar, Carlos Andrés; Tobar Guinand, José MauricioThis study diagnoses the project management maturity level of the Metro de Medellín’s Project Management Office (PMO) using the SAM-OPM3® model (188-item questionnaire) applied to multiple organizational stakeholders and consolidated in 1,502 responses. Maturity was analyzed across PMBOK® knowledge areas, process groups, and improvement stages (SMCI). The global result indicates intermediate maturity (55.9%). Strengths include Procurement (85.2%), Risk (67.7%), and Integration (65.1%), while Quality (24.0%) and Resources (26.6%) are critical gaps. By process group, performance is high in Closing (78.1%) and Monitoring and Controlling (62.2%), with lags in Initiating (43.8%) and Executing (47.3%). In SMCI, Standardize (71.7%) and Improve (61.7%) exceed the average, whereas Measure (34.8%) emerges as the main bottleneck for analytical control and evidence-based improvement. Based on these findings, the study recommends strengthening a Controlling-type PMO, emphasizing: (i) institutionalizing baselines and both strategic and operational KPIs; (ii) completing and enforcing the methodology—especially in Quality and Resource Management; (iii) consolidating portfolio dashboards and initiation stage-gates; and (iv) closing the lessons-learned–to–improvement loop. The study provides a prioritized roadmap to enhance predictability, the value delivered by projects, and alignment with the organization’s strategic objectives.Publicación Estudio de prefactibilidad para la creación de un modelo de franquicia gimnasio momentum con modalidad 24 horas / 7 días(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-06) Echeverry Hernández, Juan Sebastián; Vásquez Galvis, Paula Andrea; Diez Benjumea, Jhon MiguelThis pre-feasibility study assesses the viability of a 24/7 gym franchise business model in the city of Armenia, with potential expansion throughout the Coffee Region.
