Resumen
El logro de un desempeño ambiental sólido requiere el compromiso de las organizaciones con la mejora continua de un Sistema de Gestión Ambiental (SGA). Este constituye un conjunto integral de prácticas y procedimientos para asegurar el cumplimiento de los requisitos y políticas ambientales de una forma efectiva y consistente. El primer paso para la implantación de un SGA es la realización de un Diagnóstico Ambiental (DA), el cual permite determinar las relaciones e interacciones de la organización con el medio ambiente. Este proceso, que puede ser realizado por una empresa consultora, genera un gran volumen de información ambiental. Particularmente la empresa consultora GECYT, presenta dificultades con el manejo de la información ambiental que se genera en este proceso, por lo que en este trabajo se propone un sistema informático para la realización de DA en la empresa GECYT, que contribuya a la organización y control de dicha información ambiental. El sistema está basado fundamentalmente en la Metodología para la ejecución de DA, definida por el Centro de Información, Gestión y Educación Ambiental (CIGEA) del Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnología y Medio Ambiente, y facilita a los especialistas recopilar toda la información relacionada con el DA, almacenarla de forma segura en una base de datos, y acceder a ella de forma organizada a través del sistema. Se emplearon herramientas y tecnologías de software libre en el desarrollo del sistema, y el mismo satisface las necesidades de los clientes, lo cual fue comprobado a través de pruebas de software.
The achievement of solid environmental performance requires the commitment of organizations with continuous improvement of the Environmental Management System (EMS). This is a comprehensive set of practices and procedures to ensure compliance with environmental requirements and policies in an effective and consistent manner. The first step in the implementation of an EMS is the embodiment of an Environmental Diagnostic (ED), which allows to determine the relationships and interactions of the organization with the environment. This process, which can be done by a consulting firm, generates a large volume of environmental information. Particularly GECYT consulting firm, presents difficulties managing environmental information generated in this process, so in this paper a computer system to perform ED in GECYT is proposed. This system must contribute to the organization and control of such environmental information. The system is based primarily on the methodology for the implementation of ED, defined by the Information Center, Management and Education (CIGEA), Ministry of Science, Technology and Environment, the system makes it easier for specialists to collect all the information related to the ED, safely store it in a database and access it through a system in an organized way. Open source tools and technologies were used in the development of the system, and it meets the needs of customers, which was proven through testing software.
