Annual Report
Promon Group
2008 was a year of vigorous growth for all Promon
Group businesses.
Promon was well positioned and able to capture the opportunities brought about by Brazil’s economic
growth, especially until the third quarter of the year. Promon has a well structured portfolio of solutions
and is recognized for its technical, professional and management competencies. In 2008 it was able
to strengthen its client and contract portfolio as demand for infrastructure and services increased and
a wide range of industries increased their production capacity, all of which favored the growth and
development of Promon’s business.

Annual Report
A
gregate group gross revenue reached R$852.8
million in 2008. Net profits amounted to R$137.8
million, net of the R$19.8 million distributed to
Promon officers and employees as profit sharing.
A number of factors contributed to this high volume of net
profits: all group companies delivered positive operating
earnings in 2008, and group financial earnings were
excellent, as were non-operating profits resulting from the
Logicalis Group transaction that created PromonLogicalis
Latin America Limited. As a result, shareholder returns
for the period were 117%. At the end of fiscal year 2008,
the consolidated net worth of holding company Promon
S.A. was R$ 212.5 million, and the financial position of the
Group was very strong, having maintained its strategy of
high liquidity and low debt, which has given it the resiliency
it needs to face the global crisis. In 2008 Promon invested
some R$63 million, primarily in training, technology and
new business development.

Since it was created in 1960, Promon has evolved
and kept up with changing demands; 2008 was no
exception. The year was marked by yet another Group
transformation: to enable it to capture opportunities
in the various industries in which it is active, Promon
embarked on a process to implement an organizational
and governance structure that will make the entities
that make up the Group more independent.
From now on Promon S.A. will operate as a pure
holding company, transferring to the management
teams and structures of each Group operating entity
the responsibility for developing its own strategies and
running its own business.
Promon Engenharia is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Promon S.A. and a leading provider of engineering services,
focusing on strategic industries such as oil and gas, mining
and metals, electric power, chemicals and petrochemicals
and environmental services.

Annual Report
PromonLogicalis Latin America Limited was
created in April 2008, providing Promon with
a strong presence in the Latin American information
and communication technology (ICT) industry, a fact
that will accelerate its regional growth. It is a joint
venture between Promon Tecnologia, the former ICT
arm of Promon S.A., and U.K.-based Logicalis Group,
a division of Datatec Limited. Promon S.A. owns 30% of
the equity but has full management responsibility for this
new company.
Trópico, which is controlled by Promon S.A.,
is a 3-way joint venture between Promon S.A. (60%),
Fundação CPqD (30%) and Cisco Systems (10%). Trópico
specializes in developing hardware and software for
telecom operators.
Other Group entities are the Fundação Promon de
Previdência Social, Instituto de Tecnologia Promon and
Instituto Razão Social, the latter maintained in association
with two other large Brazilian groups – Gerdau and
Instituto Camargo Corrêa, with IBM Brazil as the
technology partner.
In 2008, Promon S.A. created Promon Novos Negócios,
dedicated to new business development, providing the
Group with a channel for its entrepreneurial tradition and
vocation. Promon Novos Negócios fosters innovation and
new ventures in infrastructure related industries, an area
where the Group has broad knowledge and important
competencies. This new area has already partnered with
important players in the investment market and has
identified interesting investment opportunities.
As business grew in 2008, Promon Group companies
had to significantly increase their headcount and, by
year end, employed a total of 1,600 professionals,
including some 300 in Latin American countries outside
Brazil. Recruiting a large number of professionals and
retaining talent during this period of market growth was
a significant challenge for the human resources area.
Promon was successful in both tasks, integrating the
new employees into a community of professionals who
share the responsibility for leading the company and for
fostering the principles, values and practices that are the
basis of its culture.
Promon is recognized by its employees and the
marketplace as an excellent place to work and has
become a reference in people management in Brazil. For
the 12th consecutive year Promon was considered one of
the best places to work in Brazil by surveys conducted by
the Great Place to Work Institute / Época Negócios and
by Guia Exame-Você S.A. / FIA-USP, the University of São
Paulo Business School. Promon’s HR was ranked among
the 50 most admired by Brazilian HR journal Gestão RH.
Promon continuously advances in its determination
to make its socio-environmental commitment an integral
element of its strategic planning and business activities,
rather than a mere set of principles, values and rules
to be followed. In 2008, activities carried out by Promon
Engenharia and PromonLogicalis moved Promon further
along this direction.
In the area of social activities and investments,
Promon prioritized projects and initiatives in education,
as it has in other years. The Group believes that education
is an essential nutrient to the development of Brazil and
its citizens. These priorities are reflected in the activities
of Instituto Razão Social and the financial support
provided to NGOs such as Ação Comunitária and Casa
do Zezinho, as well as the encouragement given to
employees to volunteer their services to projects such
as the Junior Achievement, an NGO that focuses on
preparing young people to succeed in the labor market.

Annual Report
Promon is also involved in supporting Brazil’s
National Quality Foundation’s main mission, which is
to disseminate management best practices to Brazilian
organizations large and small, both private and
government owned. Promon believes that these practices
require adopting a set of principles that will not only
make the organizations more competitive, but will also
help them integrate their activities with the development
of society and the environment.
Promon is a signatory to the United Nations Global
Compact and Brazil’s educational program known as
“Compromisso Todos pela Educação”,1 and is aligned with
movements such as “Nossa São Paulo: Outra Cidade”.2
Promon’s sustainability efforts have evolved continuously
and have reached benchmark levels in several of the
indicators published by Instituto Ethos de Empresas e
Responsabilidade Social. In 2008, Promon was selected as
a reference company for the third consecutive year by
the Sustainability Guide published by Exame magazine.
Although Promon made numerous changes during
the course of the past year, those elements that form the
essence of Promon remain unchanged: the principles and
values that mold its culture, its professional competence
based on a highly qualified team of professionals who
are motivated and committed to its future, the ownership
model that places 100% of the company’s stock in the
hands of its professionals, sustainability as a defining
element of its business strategy and an open, inquisitive
spirit, which is a characteristic of those who strive for
constant renewal.
The search for excellence, a strategic concept that
has been a constant in the history of Promon and which
led to it being awarded the 2007 National Quality Prize, is
the result of its mature commitment to the quality of the
solutions it develops and the services it delivers, of the
selection and development of its professionals, and of its
concern with their quality of life, as well as its permanent
search for the highest technical standards and the type
of relationships it develops with clients, partners and
society at large.
Brazil should feel the effects of the global financial
crisis more strongly in 2009, severely slowing its economic
growth and affecting several of the industries the Group
serves. Promon is aware of the scenario but feels it has
solid grounds to face the future with equanimity. It has a
healthy portfolio of contracts that should ensure that its
2009 revenue is equivalent to what it recorded in 2008.
This, added to its vitality, management capability and
financial health, will allow it to strengthen its business, an
open project built around the concept that it is possible
to conduct business and deliver consistent earnings while
maintaining a standard of ethics, participating in the
development of the nation, respecting the environment
and respecting human dimension, all of which are the
very essence of Promon.

Annual Report
Promon Engenharia
2008 was a historical year for Promon Engenharia,
with vigorous increases in revenue and staff.
Large contracts and good performance in almost all of its target industries boosted revenue to
R$388 million, a 78% increase over the R$217 million recorded in 2007. The combination of rising demand
and an offer of highly differentiated services had a direct impact on Promon Engenharia’s contract
portfolio, which closed the year at R$1.6 billion, over 20% above the initial forecast for the period.
7
Annual Report
P
romon Engenharia adopted a new organizational
model in 2008, a result of Promon S.A.’s
organizational and governance changes that call for
each operating entity to have its own executive and
management structure. The number of employees increased
significantly to some 1,000 by year end, as the company had
to increase its professional staff to meet market demand.
The company also added a unit dedicated to environmental
projects to its traditional business areas.
Some of the more important challenges faced
in 2008 involved recruiting, training and retaining
qualified personnel in an extremely competitive scenario.
To keep up with accelerated demand and ensure the
quality of its services, Promon Engenharia invested
heavily in process improvements and people management
in 2008. Promon Engenharia reiterated its belief in the
importance of Knowledge Management by appointing
an executive director to be in charge of this theme
and by formally introducing Environmental Affairs to
its portfolio of technical competencies. The success
of these initiatives was evidenced in client satisfaction
surveys where Promon Engenharia surpassed its already
high scores in previous years.
Oil & gas
As a result of a truly bubbling market, EPC (engineering,
procurement and construction) contracts have made
a strong come-back. Petrobras continues to lead the
industry and is responsible for over 80% of the contracts
and accounted for about 50% of the 2008 revenue.
The first major event of the year was the signing
of an agreement to build the Delayed Coking Plant (DCP)
at the Petrobras Presidente Getúlio Vargas refinery
in Araucária (Paraná). This is a R$2.5 billion contract
and one of the largest ever for Promon Engenharia,
which in this particular case is part of a consortium with
Construtora Camargo Corrêa.
Other O&G highlights for the period include
the continued work on the Hydrotreatment Unit (HDT)
at the Henrique Lage (Revap) refinery in São José dos
Campos (São Paulo), the Hydrodesulfurization Unit (HDS)
at Revap and the Alberto Pasqualini (Refap) refinery in Canoas
(Rio Grande do Sul) and the Sulfur Removal Unit (SRU) at the
Capuava refinery (Recap) in Mauá (São Paulo).
Chemicals & petrochemicals
In chemicals & petrochemicals important projects
were delivered to traditional clients such as Carbocloro,
Polietilenos União and Petroquímica União – the latter
two now part of Quattor, created in mid 2008
by Unipar and Petrobras.
Promon Engenharia is part of a consortium that
provided engineering and project estimates to expand
the existing Fosfertil complex in Uberaba and build a new
fertilizer facility in Patrocínio (Minas Gerais). Fosfertil
is controlled by Fertifós, a consortium of fertilizer
companies. This is a new and innovative contract, in the form
of an alliance, which enables stronger and more long lasting
relationship with clients, as well as shared decision making,
risks and savings from lower investment costs.

In biofuels, work continued on two large contracts
with Cosan, Brazil’s largest sugar and ethanol group.
One of these is to build the new ethanol plant in Jataí
(Goiás), and the other is to replace a cogeneration
plant at its Usina da Barra facility in Barra Bonita
(São Paulo). Both of these units will allow selling
surplus power to the regional utilities.
Power
Promon Engenharia conducted technical feasibility
studies for Vale, one of its oldest and largest clients,
interested in building coal fired thermal power plants
in the Brazilian states of Espírito Santo and Ceará. Work also
continued on engineering and management for a thermal
power plant at Barcarena, Pará, where Promon Engenharia
is responsible for adapting equipment acquired in China
to local conditions. As part of this effort Promon plays an
important role in adapting the engineering and construction
cultures of both countries. To perform this task Promon
Engenharia had teams working in China, which provided
a very relevant procurement experience in that country.
Mining and metals
Vale is also an important partner in mining and
metals. Promon Engenharia finished the third expansion
of Alunorte’s alumina plant. Alunorte is the world’s largest
alumina refiner and the controlling share is owned by Vale.
Promon has been its leading engineering partner from the
very start, some twenty years ago.
In December 2008, Promon Engenharia signed
a process engineering and infrastructure contract with
Companhia de Alumina do Pará (CAP), whose production
capacity is expected to exceed Alunorte’s. Vale is also the
majority shareholder of CAP.
Other important projects for Vale include basic
engineering, planning and budgeting for the expansion
9
Annual Report
of the Carajás Railroad and the Rail and Maritime Terminals
in Ponta da Madeira (Maranhão), which will provide
Vale with the capacity to ship 230 million tons per year
(Mtpa) through its North System.
In steel, Promon Engenharia finished the pre-feasibility
study for Companhia Siderúrgica de Pecém in Ceará,
a joint venture between Vale and Korean DongKuk Steel.
This facility will be built in two steps, each with capacity
to produce 2.5 million tons of slabs per year, for an aggregate
capacity of 5 Mtpa. Promon Engenharia also conducted
a preliminary feasibility and logistics study for Aços
Laminados do Pará (ALPA), a 2.5 Mtpa rolling facility
to be built in Marabá (Pará).
Working with Vale in its expansion overseas, Promon
Engenharia conducted feasibility studies for an ore
pelletizing plant in Oman, in the Middle East.

PromonLogicalis
Latin
was
the
America,
a decisive step in the organization’s international
expansion in the information and communication
technology (ICT) industry.
PromonLogicalis is the result of the merger between Promon Tecnologia and the Latin American
operations of U.K.-based Logicalis and was born as the largest independent integrator of ICT solutions
in Latin America.
11
Annual Report
T
he merger switched the focus of operations from the
domestic to the regional market. PromonLogicalis
is present in Brazil and has offices in Argentina,
Chile, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay. This strategic
and geographic realignment allowed it to keep up with
the global needs of its clients, who now demand vendors
that can serve them regionally, not just locally.
2008 earnings reflect the success of this initiative.
Consolidated revenue in Latin America was R$712 million
and in Brazil revenue grew 120% year over year, a period
when the total ICT market grew only 40%. This was
the fifth consecutive year in which the organization’s
ICT operations grew more than the market.
This performance reflects the success of a business
model grounded in solid professional competencies and
technological partnerships, combined with a consultative
approach that starts with a thorough understanding of
the client’s business to design and deliver innovative,
value-added solutions.
The client base grew significantly in all the
verticals in which PromonLogicalis has a presence:
telecom operators, corporations and public sector and
government institutions.
Fixed and mobile telephony and cable television
are the traditional markets, and these clients continue to
account for the largest share of the contracts. In 2008, for
the first time ever, all of Brazil’s large telecom operators
were PromonLogicalis clients, an important milestone
for the company. This was primarily the result of factors
such as the rapidly expanding offer of 3G services (highspeed voice, data, images and video) and, more recently,
portability. Contracts with telecom operators include IP
network infrastructure, high speed data transmission

solutions and services, multiple service offerings, network
management and security solutions, among others.
The corporate sector has increased its share
of the PromonLogicalis portfolio, doubling for the fourth
consecutive year. This growth reflects the alignment of
the company’s offerings and competencies with corporate
demand for collaborative solutions and tools, data center
optimization, network virtualization and eco-efficient
technologies that comply with the concept of “green
IT”, consuming less energy and generally making more
efficient use of IT infrastructures.
Clients in this segment include banks and other
financial institutions, service industries, infrastructure
providers, manufacturing industry and civil construction
companies. PromonLogicalis tries to understand the
specific needs of each industry. This approach enables
not only the development of solutions tailored to the
needs of each segment, but also their replication in order
to optimize client service and reduce time to market.
2008 projects included remodeling the data center
structure for Redecard, a credit and debit card processing
company that is part of the Itaú group, developing
a set of solutions for Pinheiro Neto Advogados, a leading
law firm in Latin America, and IT engineering consulting
services for Vale.
In the civil construction industry, the highlight
for the year was the agreement to supply ICT solutions
to the CCPR consortium (Camargo Corrêa and Promon
Engenharia), which is building the Delayed Coking Plant
at Petrobras’ Presidente Getúlio Vargas (Repar) refinery
in Araucária (Paraná). PromonLogicalis provides network
infrastructure, data processing, security, electronic
document management, voice, data and wireless
communication solutions for this facility.
For the banking industry, PromonLogicalis offers
WAAS (wide area application service) solutions that
enable its clients to optimize their communication
resources by assigning levels of priority, and also has
a number of contracts to provide Advanced Service Centers,
in which PromonLogicalis takes over the management
of the client network.
In late 2008, important contracts were signed with
public sector institutions, a market that PromonLogicalis
is maturing and where the outlook for growth is good.
PromonLogicalis will provide solutions to upgrade
data centers, network security and collaborative tools
for clients such as the São Paulo State Department
of Finance, the Federal Data Processing Service (Serpro)
and the Integrated Air Defense & Air Traffic
Control Center (Cindacta).
Another front along which PromonLogicalis
is advancing is the formalization of new technology
partnerships.

In fact, Cisco elected PromonLogicalis its “2008 Partner
of the Year”. Other achievements worth mentioning are
“Leader in Security Implementation”, “Leader in Telecom
Implementation” and “Largest Telecom Implementation”
awarded by the 2008 edition of IDG’s (a subsidiary
of the International Data Group) “100 Largest Telecom
Companies” guide.
One of the main challenges in 2009, PromonLogicalis
believes, will be meeting client demand for solutions that
provide faster returns on investments and make technology
a means to reduce costs. Part of the focus in 2009 will
be the further development of the company’s presence
in Latin America. The idea is to strengthen its position
as a regional supplier and reinforce an organizational
model that enables it to combine the competencies
of its various units to offer its clients the best solution,
regardless of the country or countries in Latin America
in which they operate.

Trópico
After another year of strong growth, Trópico reported
R$209 million in revenue for the year.
Sales in 2008 were 115% higher than 2007, which in turn were 37% higher than 2006.
Trópico provides access and control solutions and applications as well as professional services for telecom

A
s in previous years, in 2008 Trópico continued
to stand out in a market characterized by very
rapidly increasing investments in voice and
data network convergence and NGNs (next
generation networks). However, it was portability
for fixed and mobile telephony that truly drove the
company’s increased revenue for the period.
Trópico was ready and positioned to efficiently
meet operator needs when the regulatory body (Anatel)
determined portability, which allows subscribers
to switch operators and keep their same phone
number. Trópico’s solution is based on the Vectura
Signaling Server (VSI), which enables portability
without requiring that operators change platforms.
This innovative and competitive solution allowed
Trópico to sell 40% more than had been budgeted for
the year. Trópico’s VSI has been applied to the legacy
and NGN networks of Telefonica, Oi and GVT.
Other highlights for the year include the supply
of VIA (Vectura IP Access) solutions for converging
corporate voice and data networks, and expanding
the installed base of VSSs (Vectura Software Switches)
that control IP voice calls. VSSs were supplied to clients
such as Telefonica, Easytone, Voitel, Rede Networks
and Hoje Telecom.
Telefonica’s implementation of VAS (Vectura
Access Server) solution has helped improve customer
service, thanks to its voice recognition system. Oi
is using Trópico’s VES (Vectura Edge Switch) to expand
its traditional telephony network. British Telecom,
which supplies corporate networks in Brazil, signed a
managed services agreement with Trópico to supply
equipment, operation and maintenance services
this past December.
Trópico has also expanded its international
presence. It is conducting market surveys in countries
similar to Brazil and is testing its VSI solution with
Telefonica in Argentina. It also set up Trópico
Colômbia S.A. to consolidate the company’s business
in Colombia. Larger teams focused on local markets
will enable the company to better serve its clients
and prospect for new business opportunities. In
line with Promon Group’s entrepreneurial strategy
and tradition, Trópico is one of the four controlling
entities of WxBR, a company created in the
first quarter of 2008 to offer WiMax (wireless
broadband) solutions.
Trópico’s management successfully faced the
challenge to expand the Manaus plant, almost doubling
its manufacturing area. To ensure continued product
and service excellence, as well as the levels of client
satisfaction demonstrated in numerous surveys, in
2008 Trópico invested some R$24 million in technology
development and expects to invest another
R$29 million in 2009.

Annual Report
Promon
Novos Negócios
Promon’s
longstanding
entrepreneurial
vocation
was reinforced in 2008 with the creation of Promon
Novos Negócios.
The objective is to provide the Group with a framework to systematically support its investment decisions
in areas where it has recognized knowledge, competence and credibility.
17
Annual Report
P
romon Novos Negócios activities will be
based on two main axes. One is to assess
opportunities and scenarios to invest in midsized ventures in electric power generation,
information and communication technology and other
areas. When investing in these industries Promon will
necessarily take the lead and will be responsible for
concept, implementation and management of the
resulting venture, even if it reaches out to investors
to leverage the initiative.
The second axis is based on the activities
of P2Brasil, a joint venture established in 2008 by Promon
Group and Pátria Investimentos to create and manage
investment funds. Pátria is one of Brazil’s outstanding
corporate advisory and capital management firms.
As an asset manager, P2Brasil has independent governance
so as to avoid conflicts of interest with other Promon
Group businesses.
The first initiative of this new company is the
P2Brasil Infrastructure fund that focuses on
business opportunities in the sub-sectors of
logistics and transportation, oil and gas, water,
sanitation and waste treatment and electric power
transmission and distribution. P2Brasil will draw on
the solid knowledge and competencies of the two
partners, Pátria in investment management and
Promon in infrastructure project management.
To enable continued economic growth, Brazil
must invest and revitalize its infrastructure. Promon
wants to use its entrepreneurial nature to be an active
participant of this process, using its competencies and
the credibility it has developed in the marketplace.
One of Promon’s new business initiatives
in 2008 was an equity investment in DeepFlex,
a US company that manufactures flexible pipes
used to produce and distribute oil and gas. These
pipes are made of lightweight and corrosionresistant material, making them specially suited
to challenging offshore environments such as
subsea facilities. This is a market with significant
growth potential because of oil exploration and
production in Brazilian waters.

Annual Report
Fundação Promon
de Previdência Social
Fundação Promon de Previdência Social (FPPS),
the Group’s pension fund, was not immune to the
effects of the global economic crisis in 2008, but its
results remain better than those of most open plans
available in Brazil.
2008 was one of the worst years ever for pension funds worldwide because of the global slump in
equity markets. In Brazil, where pension funds had accumulated a large surplus during the stock market
boom years, average nominal 2008 returns were negative by an estimated average of 1.6%, according
to ABRAPP, the national association of closed pension fund entities.
19
Annual Report
B
oth plans administered by FPPS − the MultiFlex
defined-contribution plan and the BásicoPlus
defined-benefit plan − were affected, albeit
less so than their peer group of pension funds.
Fund management is conservative in both cases, with
less than 18% exposure to variable yield securities
at the start of 2008. As a result, the plans did not
suffer the full impact of falling stock prices as did the
rest of the market.
Quotas in the MultiFlex plan increased in value by
3.72% during the year; even though this performance
is far above the negative 1.6% yield mentioned above,
if we include the 6.48% increase in the consumer price
index (INPC), real fund yield was negative 2.6%.
However, if the accumulated yield since the fund was
created in 2005 is taken into account, its performance
is still better than most open pension funds available
in the market. MultiFlex has a total of 1,304 members,
of which 1,142 are employees, 142 are self-funded
and 20 are beneficiaries. At the end of 2008 total assets
were R$106 million.
BásicoPlus, which was set up more than 30 years ago,
ended the year with net assets of R$602 million and 728
participants (85 active employees, 82 self-funded and 561
beneficiaries). At year end its accrued actuarial liability
amounted to R$549 million based on the discounted
present value of future liabilities and the life expectancy
of the members. Here too results were affected by
the negative yield of variable yield investments.
2008 was also marked by new and restrictive
government regulations governing supplemental pension
fund funding models and the destination of surpluses in
defined-benefit plans. As a result, the level of contributions
to BásicoPlus is expected to increase considerably in
2009, affecting both active pension plan members and
Promon Group companies as the sponsors. This situation
should lead to a reopening of the option to migrate
to the MultiFlex plan, where member contributions
are entirely voluntary.
In 2008, FPPS introduced real segregation of the
assets held by the two plans, but decided not to introduce
more strongly differentiated investment policies for
each one until the turbulence caused by the ongoing
global financial crisis is over.
At the institutional level, FPPS continued
to represent the sponsoring companies on Brazil’s
“Conselho de Gestão de Previdência Complementar”
(Supplemental Pension Fund Management Board). This
Council, which performs normative and appealing
functions, is chaired by the Minister of Social
Security and is made up of government, member and
pension fund representatives.

consolidate its activities along the three main axes of
activity: fostering analysis and debate on emerging
technologies, integrating with academia, and supporting
knowledge management.
The focus of emerging technology initiatives were energy, sustainable development and information and
communication technology, all priority areas of interest for Promon Group.
21
Annual Report
S
eminars and lectures were organized throughout
the year to discuss the feasibility and impact

a seminar for 150 persons held in São Paulo and entitled
“A Challenge to Sustainability: Water versus Energy”.
During the course of the year other lectures were
organized: “Global Climate Changes and their Impact
on Brazil”, “Modeling and Analysis of the Madeira
River Hydroelectric Complex”, and “Applications of
Segmented AC Transmission”.
To further strengthen the ties between Promon and
academia, another ITP effort was a trainee program for
Master’s Degree students. Launched late in 2007, the
program was designed to identify and train talents in
areas Promon believes to be strategic. In 2008 Promon
awarded grants to four students selected from among
fifty applicants. These students are expected to defend
their dissertations sometime in 2009. At the end of the
year a fresh round of applications will be analyzed and
new grants awarded. At the same time, the Institute has
kept up its academic and institutional orientation for
Promon Group employees enrolled in graduate courses
in Universities in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.
The third axis, launched in July 2008, is
methodological support for Promon Engenharia’s
Internal Training Program, an initiative that is a milestone
in the Group’s knowledge management. Some thirty
professionals will compile, organize and manage the
knowledge created or made operational by the company.
In 2008, 24 classroom modules were produced that can be
combined and used in many different types of training
events. Combining conventional and video-conferencing
activities, the program uses state-of-the-art distance
learning tools to foster the interaction between students
and teachers. The success of the pilot conducted in 2008
resulted in a plan to produce an additional 49 modules
in 2009, which will require the dedicated effort of about
seventy specialists. These courses will be available to all
Promon professionals and it is the intention to make
them available to clients in the future.

Annual Report
Instituto
Razão Social
Instituto Razão Social (IRS) is a non-profit organization
that for the past six years has focused on training
managers
and
educators
to
improve
public
education systems.
The numbers in the 2008 edition of the Basic Education Development Index (IDEB) reflect the poor quality
of education in Brazil: only 1.2% of the schools equaled or bettered the average score in developed
nations, which was 6. In spite of the advances made in IDEB scores in recent years, the path ahead is long
and will require substantial effort by the government and all other sectors of society.

Annual Report
T
he IRS, maintained jointly by Promon Group,
Gerdau and Instituto Camargo Corrêa, with
IBM as the technology partner, has completely
embraced quality of public education as its cause.
The IRS identifies and optimizes worthy education
projects, mobilizing resources and partners to enable
selected projects and then replicate them using
information technology.
In 2008, the IRS continued to support consolidated
programs and made new inroads, such as, for example,
reinforcing its technological partnership with IBM and
preparing, at their request, the first module of a course
about water for teenagers in the public schools.
Another successful partnership launched in 2008,
this time with Santander Group, created the PEFE
Network, a distance learning program for Physical
Education teachers, pedagogical coordinators and
school directors. In its first edition the PEFE reached 44
teachers in the “Escola Brasil” project. The PEFE website
had 11,922 hits in four months and offers participating
schools an innovative and more participative
proposal for physical education, one that uses games
and body awareness and motion as part of physical
education classes.
“Progestão” is another item on the IRS agenda.
Created in 2004 by Consed, the National Board of
Education Secretaries, the program was originally
designed to train public school administrators. Currently
the content is migrating to an online format to expand
its scope and accessibility. With financial support from
Gerdau, the first module migrated in 2008, in a joint
effort with Consed directors and state representatives.
This effort will continue in 2009.
Another program entitled “Gestão para o Sucesso
Escolar” (Management for School Success or GSE) is a
joint venture between the IRS, Fundação Lemann and
Gerdau to strengthen the role of public school principals
as educational leaders engaged in improving student
performance. In 2008 the program trained 37 principals
in São Paulo and 43 in Minas Gerais, benefiting over
27,300 children. The GSE is also being used to train
eighteen school principals in Maracanaú, Ceará, where
Gerdau has a manufacturing facility. This cycle ends in
2009 and will have benefitted 9,182 students.
“Além das Letras” (Beyond Letters) is a partnership
with Instituto Avisa Lá and sponsored by Gerdau.
It focuses on teaching literacy and is designed to
reach professionals in city departments of education
responsible for training teachers in the municipal
public school system. In its most recent edition in
2008, the program involved 407 schools in 31 cities and
towns selected using new criteria developed to focus
on locations with IDEBs below the national average.
In 2008 alone over 106 thousand students benefitted
from the program. Since its creation in 2004, “Além
das Letras” has reached 98 cities and towns. According
to a 2008 survey by consulting firm Casa 7 – Memórias
e Aprendizagens da Prática Social, the program has
fulfilled its objective of training municipal department
of education technical teams. The survey also found
that the program had created training methodology,
work agendas and classroom planning tools.
Another program, entitled “Formar em Rede”,
is similar to “Além das Letras”, but focuses on early
childhood education. It received high scores in an
assessment conducted by LabSocial – Consultoria em
Desenvolvimento Social. This program is a partnership
between Gerdau, Promon, Natura, Instituto C&A
and Instituto Avisa Lá. It encourages the use of new
education practices and creates “play” areas for children.
Launched in early 2007 and completed at the end
of 2008, the first round reached 46,415 children in
30 municipalities and 13 states. Eighty percent of the
teachers involved noted an improvement in the quality
of the play area and 91% of them now realize that
“playing” is a core early childhood activity. These
successes ensure the program will continue and in 2009
it should be extended to another 20 cities and towns.
All of these programs result in activities that are
aligned with the concept of optimizing private social
investment by using technology to take the best
teaching and learning processes to an increasing number
of public school professionals. All of them reflect Instituto
Razão Social’s core belief that “Education is the Reason
for the Future”.
