The operational method of civil construction can be analyzed by the outlook of virtual organizations, however not yet structuralized, hence not providing competitive advantages. Thus, this article considers a Technical Components and Requirements Model, based on EKD methodology (Enterprise Knowledge Development), to assist in the formation and management of networks in civil construction companies. For the elaboration of the considered model, an analysis of the most important international construction projects was conducted, in addition to a case study from seven construction projects in order to detect their goals and defective points, to then be reorganized and adapted to the Brazilian civil construction industry. Moreover, the considered model was also based on an adaptation of reference architecture for civil construction networks. As a result, the proposal makes possible, to the stakeholders, a clear view of the necessary requirements, exploring the necessity of intense communication and exchange of information, besides contributing to future research works regarding a future development of an information system directed for this economic segment.
