With the advent of globalization, the evolution of media allies to progress of computing resources imposes a dynamic progressive acceleration of the processes Change in general. This phenomenon has caused more and more companies seek get the state of excellence in their activities, whether in relation to a particular product or service. To seek this state of excellence, some companies find certain risks in its route that need to be controlled and overcome. For GATES (2000), companies must have a rapid response mechanism to changes. But only respond quickly to a stimulus or risk no longer meets all the needs of the market, it is necessary to be proactive.
