Propuesta de automatización del proceso de gestión de información en el área de presupuesto y compras de una empresa de diseño de interiores y construcción de ambientes corporativos: Grupo Doss Arq. S.A.S.

Abstract

Grupo Doss Arq. S.A.S. is an interior design and corporate office construction company dedicated to providing comprehensive solutions in architecture, design, construction, and furniture for business spaces. Founded in Bogotá in 1997 by architects Gustavo Leal and Jorge Gómez, it has established itself as a recognized organization known for its focus on innovation, aesthetic quality, and the functional efficiency of its projects. Its main clients are in the corporate sector, including service companies, financial institutions, and consulting firms that require spaces tailored to their operational needs and brand identity. With the growth of its portfolio and the simultaneous execution of multiple projects, the company has identified difficulties in managing information within the Budget and Purchasing area, due to the prevalence of manual processes and the lack of integrated data control tools. This situation leads to data entry errors, reprocessing, duplicate information, and delays in consolidating budgets and reports, directly impacting project costs, timelines, and traceability. For this reason, this internship project aims to design a proposal for automating the information management process in the Budget and Purchasing area of Grupo Doss Arq. S.A.S., focused on optimizing workflows, reducing human error, and improving operational efficiency through the use of office tools programmed in Microsoft Excel with Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). The hypothesis guiding this study posits that implementing an automated information management system will allow the company to improve its budget control processes, expedite decision-making, and increase information traceability throughout all project phases
