ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF SUSTAINABLE PUBLIC CONTRACTS

ABSTRACT

Social responsibility, sustainable development and the preservation of the environment are driving state owned organizations to include sustainability in their strategies. In this search for solutions and strategies for sustainable development has emerged a new role for the government, which is the search for new purchases and hiring practices aimed at sustainability. So this research paper intends to collaborate in the characterization of the buying process and procurement with the main objective to analyze the benefits and results of adopting Sustainable Public Procurement during the period of 2010-2013 by the agencies of the Federal Government of Brazil, with regard to the use of sustainability criteria in process of buying and procurement. Therefore, the results show that federal agencies have already applied sustainability criteria in purchases and contracts and are key stakeholders for the successful implementation of these criteria in all procurement processes and procurement.
