Eventuais pontos para melhora

• O projeto, conforme muitos projetos no Brasil, tem risco de atrasar e isso é erro do gestor de projeto. Na idealização das olimpíadas era essencial a previsão deste risco e dado mais tempo para a execução das obras e outros trabalhos.
• Algumas obras como o velódromo foram praticamente consideradas inutilizáveis pela comissão olímpica internacional, portanto, será demolida e será construído um novo velódromo. A partir da análise deste fato, chegamos à conclusão da irresponsabilidade dos gestores e dos idealizadores do evento.

Informações Adicionais a obter

• Achar datas específicas, principalmente de eventuais obras que dizem respeito as olimpíadas.
• Achar com precisão o custo total do projeto.
