Análise SWOT da Gestão de Águas Subterrâneas no Piauí

Abstract

A análise SWOT é uma ferramenta da administração utilizada para analisar os ambientes interno e externo de uma organização a fim de identificar os pontos fortes e fracos e estabelecer os cenários para um determinado objetivo. Transpondo essa noção para a gestão de recursos hídricos, a análise SWOT poderia ser utilizada na produção de cenários visando o fortalecimento da gestão. Assim, ela foi utilizada para compor os cenários da gestão das águas subterrâneas no estado do Piauí. Foram elencadas as forças e as oportunidades que poderiam auxiliar no fortalecimento da gestão, bem como as fraquezas e ameaças que dificultariam a consecução desse objetivo.

SWOT Matrix as a tool for diagnosing the municipal water supply system of a small city: a case study

“…Also, according to the authors, there may be a centralized water treatment plant or several local treatment systems in each well, with decentralized systems being more economical and technologically viable. Pooi and Ng (2018) The great availability of water was considered an opportunity by Monteiro and Cabral (2018), in the SWOT analysis for groundwater management in the Brazilian state of Piauí. In this work, the abundance of water was also considered as an opportunity, being the factor with the highest classification (18), cited 6 times, with importance degree 3.…”

“…Also, according to the authors, this type of connection consists of bypassing the water meter or by clandestine derivation in the network. On the other hand, Monteiro and Cabral (2018) considered as a weakness (rather than a threat) a large number of irregular users, in a SWOT Matrix designed for the management of groundwater in Piauí. In this way, it can be seen that the current threat, if not mitigated, can become a weakness in a future scenario.…”

“…SWOT analysis applied to water resources management can be found in recent research. Monteiro and Cabral (2018) can be cited, who used it to compose the groundwater management scenarios in the Brazilian state of Piauí; Pereira and Marques (2020), who applied the tool to analyze tariffs for irrigation water in Portugal; Petousi et al (2017), who used it to define priority measures for the management of water resources in the Island of Crete, Greece and; Nagara et al (2015), who applied it to make a comparison between the technological solutions for water management employed in Asia and Africa.…”

“…SEMAR still suffers from the turnover of professionals and a small technical staff (Monteiro and Cabral, 2018). Although a public tender was held to fill 12 vacancies, the survey carried out by the State Plan (SEMAR, 2010) indicates that at least 100 effective servants would be needed.…”

“…Although a public tender was held to fill 12 vacancies, the survey carried out by the State Plan (SEMAR, 2010) indicates that at least 100 effective servants would be needed. Monteiro and Cabral (2018) also list other problems in management, such as the lack of an information system, the weak performance of the State Water Resources Management System, and the lack of integration with other policies. Despite this, SEMAR has been trying to overcome these issues.…”
