Modernização das compras públicas: uma visão econométrica

Abstract

A legally correct application of the public resources is not enough nowadays. It is necessary for the Government and its administrators to strain to use the scarce means available in an efficient and effective way, searching support on modern techniques which admittedly can cause better results for the Administration. The purpose of this study is to recognize the procedure of licitations used on Brazilian public purchases and, with the Auctions Theory and econometric tools aid, to verify the aspects that can make the process more efficient and then, to compare the results gotten after the implantation of new licitation procedures with those observed previously. The methodology applied was a case study, as well as a documental and a bibliographical research on licitation and auction theory related subjects, and experimental, due to check the effect of some variables on Government savings gains on public buys. It has been concluded that the participation of a higher number of suppliers, the existence of a bidding competitive phase after knowing the initial proposes and the reduction of licitation time contribute for the expenditure decrease and that, for way of these factors, with the use of a new licitation procedure, it was possible for the Administration to get greater economy in its processes of acquisition. The study presents econometrics models that demonstrate the former conclusion, by analyzing licitations realized on different procedures on Fortaleza Air Base.
