Compra governamental como indutor do desenvolvimento econômico local

Abstract

The Brazilian Government has proposed to sanction several legislations with the aim of improving the government acquisition process. In this sense, we highlight, for example, the commitment to include a greater number of local companies and/or regional to the purchasing process, in order to encourage development throughout the national territory. In this context, the present study aims to address government purchases as a source of local economic development, in order to that institutional actions are more comprehensive than mere compliance with the law. The intention is to discuss the incorporation of a sense of responsibility in carrying out public acquisitions, so that there is a commitment to ensure that the available resources circulate at the regional level (municipality or state). In this way, the relevant legislation and its different instances are analyzed. Furthermore, a case study is presented, based on contracts carried out by the State University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UEMS). To achieve the objective, firstly, a bibliographical review is prepared listing the developmental theories that reinforce the role of the State in the development process and, more specifically, the role of public procurement. Next, a survey of the relevant legislation on the topic is carried out and a critical analysis is carried out indicating the scope and its limitations. Finally, a case study is developed at UEMS, through a survey of contracts carried out (purchases public) in its scope in 2015. The conclusions point towards showing that, although there is a government commitment, through relevant legislation, to include small companies, local enterprises and family farming in government purchases, this is still considerably small. participation, indicating the need for complementary actions by the State
