O objetivo deste estudo é compreender como e porquê usar uma Análise Custo-Benefício (ACB) para superar desafios de gestão e de sustentabilidade na Mina do Barroso-Portugal. Nos dias de hoje, é essencial que as organizações adotem práticas de gestão sustentáveis para garantir a sua viabilidade a longo prazo. O enquadramento teórico foi no âmbito da ACB, desafios de gestão e de sustentabilidade. O estudo do caso de uma empresa do setor da mineração, responsável pela prospeção e exploração da Mina do Barroso mostrou-se capaz de responder à pergunta de investigação. A recolha de dados foi realizada através de análise documental, reportagens e entrevistas publicadas online. Os dados recolhidos foram tratados de forma descritiva, tendo sempre como referência a pergunta de investigação. São de destacar os seguintes resultados: o investimento inicial, o preço de mercado, os custos de produção vs o preço de mercado, a análise de riscos e o impacto ambiental e social são alguns critérios da ACB aos quais foi possível associar motivações e desafios de gestão e sustentabilidade. Em termos práticos, este estudo pode servir de base e contributo para outras empresas adotarem uma ACB para superar desafios de gestão e de
sustentabilidade, pois, esta avalia de forma sistemática e objetiva os impactos económicos, sociais e ambientais. Assim sendo, a ACB assume-se como uma ferramenta indispensável no planeamento estratégico das organizações contemporâneas, desempenhando um papel preponderante na garantia da sua viabilidade a longo prazo e na promoção da sustentabilidade social e ambiental.
The objective of this study is to understand how and why to use a Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) to overcome management and sustainability challenges in the Barroso Mine. Nowadays, it is essential for organizations to adopt sustainable management practices to ensure their long-term viability. The theoretical framework encompassed CBA, management challenges, and sustainability. The case study of a mining company responsible for the exploration and exploitation of the Barroso Mine proved capable of answering the research question. Data collection was conducted through document analysis, reports, and interviews published online. The collected data was treated descriptively, always referencing the research question. The following results stand out: initial investment, market price, production costs vs market price, risk analysis, and environmental and social impact analysis are some CBA methods to which it was possible to associate management and sustainability motivations and challenges. In practical terms, this study can serve as a basis and contribution for other companies to adopt a CBA to overcome management and sustainability challenges, as it systematically and objectively evaluates economic, social, and environmental impacts. Therefore, CBA is an indispensable tool in the strategic planning of contemporary organizations, playing a crucial role in ensuring their long-term viability and promoting social and environmental sustainability.
