This paper presents results about the development of the tool CAIS (Conception and Analysis in Innovation and Sustainability) for thought structuring and project analysis, designed and used in the course “Specials Studies in Technology 1: Innovation and Sustainability in Construction Industry” (PPG-FAU/UnB). The method used was divided into theoretical framework, conception, analyses, and applicable tests. The use of this tool improved research organization and delimitation, and it allowed for the analysis of the contributions to innovation and sustainability of research in the PCCI context, as well as the identification of patterns for the communication of research results. This tool can serve as a device of evaluating, leveraging, and encouraging projects that generate results in synergy with innovation and sustainability in the construction industry.
