Licitações públicas sustentáveis em Pernambuco : uma pesquisa documental

Abstract

With the advent of the Federal Constitution of 1988, state financial control is evidenced; works, services, purchases and disposals are contracted through a public bidding process. Starting in 2016, the Advocacia-Geral da União, launched the "National Guide to Sustainable Procurement" with the objective of bringing legal certainty to public managers in the implementation of sustainable public tenders. The objective of this research was to investigate how bidding documents have listed the acquisition of goods and services, with sustainable principles, in the public purchases of the state of Pernambuco. The methodology used in the research was documentary analysis. A total of 40 public bidding bids belonging to 10 state and federal government institutions were analyzed. Data analysis was based on content analysis related to sustainability, social welfare, economic development and environmental preservation dimensions, with a view to obtaining frequency, panoramic evolution and identification of socio-environmental aspects in bidding events. It became clear that only federal bidding bids effectively bring at least a sustainability dimension starting in 2018. The investigation has shown that the public agencies' public announcements are stagnant and have not, since 2012, any draft socio-environmental responsibility in their content. The "preservation of the environment" dimension prevailed in 9 (nine) of the 11 (eleven) edicts in which the dimensions of sustainability occur. t is concluded that only 1 (one) institution among 10 (ten) public institutions, adopts sustainable public bids, for the acquisition of services and public goods.
