New Technologies Applied in Economic and Financial Feasibility Studies: an Integrative Literature Review

Abstract

New information and communication technologies (NICT) play a fundamental role within contemporary society and, in this study, an integrative review of the world literature is presented, highlighting its applications for management, more specifically in relation to economic and financial viability studies. For this, an exploratory search was conducted in databases indexed in the Portal of Journals of the Higher Education Personnel Improvement Coordination (Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior – CAPES), in order to search the theoretical framework and an integrative review in the Scopus, Web of Science and IEEE Xplore, for the survey of the NICTs used in economic and financial feasibility studies. In addition to listing them, it can be seen that, in addition to enabling the resolution of problems when used in isolation, they are even more efficient when used together, enhancing their capabilities and employment possibilities in a complementary way.
