Researches in various parts of the world are being conducted to understand the factors that interfere in the international success 🏀 of Elite Sports (ES).
In this context, the Information Management (IM) becomes strategic so that the sports organizations can take advantage 🏀 of the data and the processes that involve the success in sport management.
However, little was developed to establish information management 🏀 models that continuously monitor the Brazilian ES.
The objective of this study, therefore, is to construct a model for the management 🏀 of ES information in Brazil.
Through a combination of methods, the study consisted of four phases: (1) survey and analysis of 🏀 methods to systematize of sport information - to identify the fundamental elements for sports success and to review the methods 🏀 to systematize information of the ES; (2) pilot study - to develop the method of collecting, cataloging and systematizing ES 🏀 information in Brazil; (3) construction of the ES information management model using an entity-relationship model (ERM) for computerized management of 🏀 sports data; (4) validation of the management model, through the judgment of an experts committee.
The results revealed that in 29 🏀 nations studies have been developed to systematize sport information and to know the elements that interfere in the success of 🏀 the ES.
The study of the scope of these elements resulted in the selection of ten dimensions for collecting and cataloging 🏀 Brazilian ES information in a MySQL Database (DB), modeled with the objective of allowing the articulation between the dimensions The 🏀 elimination of redundancies and the construction of the ERM, the standardization and categorization of the terms allowed the construction of 🏀 an information management model of the ES that allows continuous updating dimensions and information mapped, composed of eight dimensions: Financial 🏀 Resources; Sports Infrastructure; Sports Materials; Entities and Governance; Athletes and Sport Professionals; Events and Sport Results; Science and Technology; Legislation.
The 🏀 model uses the principles of Business Intelligence (BI) and a database that can be continuously adapted to different factors, contexts, 🏀 and sports.
It is a digital repository of information composed of 75 tables, divided into nine sets that are articulated through 🏀 185 relationships, allowing to produce analyzes, reports and indicators of intra or interdimensional form and uni or multisport.
This model allows 🏀 information crossing and presentation of simultaneous responses of athletes, entities, sports, their evidence and data that involve financing, infrastructure, and 🏀 other dimensions.
It was concluded that this study innovates when using the success factors to establish a computerized information management model 🏀 of the ES, which can be implemented in a country or an entity.
By inserting business intelligence into sports management, this 🏀 work provides the most important information for decision-making by managers, can qualify the policies and contribute to efficient communication between 🏀 different sports entities....
