ABSTRACT: This research aims to build
a model for performance evaluation of the implementation phase of a technology
park, through the multicriteria methodology for constructivist decision aid
(MCDA-C). This is a survey based on the constructivist paradigm, in a form of
case study, of an exploratory nature, with qualitative and quantitative approach.
For data collection, interview techniques, direct observation and review documents
were used. As results the model enabled: i) identify four Areas of Concern, sixteen
Fundamental Points of View—FPVs and seventy-one descriptors (performance
indicators) that integrate the evaluation model; ii) demonstrate the
performance profile of the current situation (statusquo) of the Technology Park implementation process, which
resulted in 62 points; iii) explain a structured process for the identification
of strengths and opportunities for performance improvement. Thus, the research
generated knowledge regarding the Technology Park implementation process and
the evaluation model is a tool to support the management in decision-making
activities.
