Resumo: As software is not a manufactured product, the assessment of the readiness level of software technology (STRL) differs from that of hardware. Considering recent government investments in software development, the aim of this article is to present the STRL scales used as a reference in analyzing the readiness of this technology, reflecting on their importance for Brazil. The methodology is exploratory, seeking a Brazilian understanding of the level of software technology readiness (STRL), with a qualitative approach, using bibliographic research (TRL classification, according to Mankins, 2009) and documentary research (technical reports, among which: SEI, US-GAO and Embrapii) as procedures and, in the treatment of data, content analysis, from the perspective of Bardin (2016). The main results showed the prominence of the DoD, NASA, GAO and Embrapii STRL scales, but that they require interpretation and possible adaptations, since they all derive from the hardware-focused TRL scale.

Considerando os recentes investimentos governamentais voltados para o desenvolvimento de software, o objetivo deste artigo foi apresentar as escalas STRL usadas como referência na análise de prontidão dessa tecnologia, refletindo sobre a sua importância para o Brasil. A metodologia é exploratória, buscando a compreensão brasileira acerca do nível de prontidão de tecnologia de software (STRL), com abordagem qualitativa, utilizando como procedimentos as pesquisas bibliográfica (classificação TRL, segundo Mankins, 2009) e documental (relatório técnicos, entre os quais: SEI, US-GAO e Embrapii) e, no tratamento dos dados, a análise de conteúdo, sob a perspectiva de Bardin (2016). Os principais resultados mostraram a proeminência das escalas STRL do DoD, NASA, GAO e Embrapii, mas que elas necessitam de interpretação e eventuais adaptações, uma vez que todas derivam da escala TRL focada em hardware.Universidade Federal da Bahia2024-04-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/nit/article/view/5650710.9771/cp.v17i2.56507Cadernos de Prospecção; Vol. 17 No. 2 (2024); 437-454Cadernos de Prospecção; v. 17 n. 2 (2024); 437-4542317-00261983-1358reponame:Cadernos de Prospecção (Online)instname:Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA)instacron:UFBAporhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/nit/article/view/56507/31698Copyright (c) 2023 Cadernos de Prospecçãohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFerreira, André Luiz LeiteRibeiro, Núbia Moura2024-04-01T11:32:20Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufba.br:article/56507Revistahttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/nitPUBhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/nit/oaicadernosdeprospeccao@gmail.com || maliceribeiro@yahoo.com.br || cadernosdeprospeccao@gmail.com || saionaraluna@gmail.com2317-00261983-1358opendoar:2024-04-01T11:32:20Cadernos de Prospecção (Online) - Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA)false
