In the course of the text will be presented the main factors of the transformation from a bureaucratic public administration to a managerial public administration, specifically focusing the change from a Government Organization to a Social Organization. To reach the proposed objective, a case study of the Brazilian Association of Light Sincrotron Technology - ABTLuS, that represented the first Social Organization installed in Brazil, responsible for the management of the National Laboratory of Light Sincrotron - LNLS, under form of administration contract signed with Nationl Research Council - CNPq and Science and Technology Ministry - MCT.

Proceeding, field researches were realized in the cities of Campinas - SP, in Brasília - DF and in Rio de Janeiro - RJ. As a consequence of the accomplished work, it was possible to observe that the implementation of the SO administrative model brought more administrative flexibility for the qualified institution. This fact induced to gains of agility and efficiency, with more responsibilities, for the leaders as well as for the employees of ABTLuS.

Os tribunais de contas e o controle social : a proposta de criação de uma ouvidoria para o Tribunal de Contas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro e sua importância no processo democrático fluminense

The aim of this dissertation is to study the contribution given by the Brazilian court of accounts, with the creation of the ombudsman on those institutions, to the exercise of the social control made by its citizens. Being considered one of the key inventions in the field of the external control of the public management, the ombudsman of the court of accounts is the most important means of control the society may use over the public management, as well as the place where the society and court of accounts might debate and get to an agreement concerning on how to spend the public asset in a way that will benefit the citizens. In order to fulfill the aim of the dissertation, the concepts of citizenship, particularly the deliberative citizenship, were recaptured, as well as the means of control in the public management and the role of the court of accounts as a participant in the external control of the public accounts. Lastly, some of the 18 ombudsman linked to Brazilian courts of account are presented in the dissertation. The Ombudsman of the Courts of Accounts of the states of Paraná and Pernambuco are emphasized once it is understood that they are in the path of transcending the concept of popular participation to the popular sovereignty, in which the debate with the society might, in a near future, decide possibly the course of the audits of those entities.

O controle das relações entre o estado e organizações da sociedade civil: as perspectivas do TCU e do TCE-RJ

This dissertation is an analysis of how is happening in practice, the control of relations between the public sector and civil society organisations (NGOs) after the establishment of the legal framework of the third sector at the end of the decade of 90. This analysis focuses on the prospects of two organisations of the Brazilian government: Tribunal de Contas da União (TCU) and Tribunal de Contas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (TCE-RJ). This study addresses the problem from the description of the historical context in relation to recent changes in the role of the state and public management. We proceed a review of the literature on the new models of public management, detailing the relevant aspects. It was also, briefly, as Brazil is facing these changes, the new legal framework of the third sector and the question of control of the relationship between state and civil society organizations. To evaluate the situation on the control of NGOs is held, initially, a survey of information collected in several audits conducted by TCU and TEC-RJ, as well as interviews with representatives of these organisations to achieve the main issues involving the control of transfers of public resources for these entities in the third sector. The analysis of results suggests that the control of the results expected in the new legal framework of the third sector is not consolidated in practice, and even in relation to traditional bureaucratic control there remain significant gaps that put at risk the correct application of public funds earmarked for NGOs.

Controle social exercido através da denúncia no âmbito do TCE-RJ

The crisis that affected the capitalist states during the last decade of the 20th century, put an end to the period of greatest expansion of the state, demanding alterations that brought, especially in economic terms, the ideals of the liberal state. The main goal of these changes was to optimize the administration of the public service by introducing into it more efficiency, transparency, and morality because the state had shown to be incapable of attending the demands of the society and its way of doing was inefficient and did not reach out to the public interest. In Brazil, like in other part of the world, recent scandals of corruption and misuse of public funds put in doubt the efficiency of the financial control system. Like any other political system Brazil has a complex set of external and internal control, institutions that work to prevent misuse of public funds and identify responsibilities if bad use occurred. All these elements highlight the mechanisms of control of the public administration, which came to be seen as essential instruments for the improvement of the management of the public resources, targeting the collective interest. Therefore, along with the traditional mechanisms of power suppression, such as the system of checks and balances, social control arises. This, when used together with the monitoring exercised by public inspection agencies, is defined as horizontal accountability activated by civil society, in which citizens and institutions gather efforts in order to promote a more effective charge of responsibility from public agents and politicians in case of misconducts. This study aimed to identify the opportunities and limitations of social control exercised by the complaint under the TCE-RJ. The results point to the need to develop measures to guarantee the anonymity of denouncers, to simplify the forms of access the TCE-RJ and to improve information spread to the citizen.

Metodologia de custeio baseado em atividades implementada no Banco Central do Brasil: uma análise de seus desdobramentos

In the last years, there has been a strong tendency of transferring typical business management concepts and practices to the public administration, such as: efficiency, efficacy, effectiveness, economy, operational excellence, results and transparency. The limited offer of resources, as well as the growing demand for accountability, justifies that movement. In order to put the aforementioned concepts into operation, the public administration uses some mechanisms, among them cost management. This dissertation focuses on the use of cost management systems, based on an activity-based costing (ABC) method, by Brazilian public entities. The present analysis is conducted from the ABC system implemented in the Brazilian Central Bank (BACEN) - an indirect public administration autarchy - the main goal of this study is to examine its outcomes since the implementation of the system. The investigation went through three main questions: if the system is being used, if it is fulfilling the objectives sought and, finally, if it is providing the expected benefits. Semi-structured interviews were made with members of the institution; and, according to the assumptions and tools tailored for this study, the collected data were analysed qualitatively. Evidences indicate that information, when not manipulated in a systematic way, hinder not only the incorporation of the cost system to the routine, but also the achievement of the goals and benefits aimed with such implementation.

A reestruturação patrimonial da Caixa Econômica Federal. Uma análise sob a otica dos mecanismos de controle e da gestão do estado

Este trabalho busca, mediante o estudo dos processos de intervenção do Estado, no domínio econômico, correlacionar, com maior abrangência, razões históricas que contribuíram, contribuem ou influenciam para a ocorrência de não conformidades nos negócios públicos. A partir desse entendimento, utiliza-se a CAIXA como objeto de estudo, estando ela inserida em um cenário sob forte influência de diversos fatores históricos, buscando, enquanto empresa pública bancária pertencente ao Estado Brasileiro e dele assumindo características e sujeição a riscos (do próprio Estado e do seu "modus operandi"), continuar, de forma sustentável e progressiva, a implementar políticas públicas e a garantir a sua sobrevivência como instituição bancária tradicional. A CAIXA sempre operou com a dualidade de ser um banco comercial e prover políticas publicas, assumindo riscos, principalmente se for verificado o modelo utilizado na concessão de créditos, notadamente, dos financiamentos habitacionais, fator preponderante ao requerimento de reestruturação patrimonial por parte da empresa. Sua reestruturação foi conseqüência, dentre outros fatores, dessa dualidade. A CAIXA, como agente distribuidor o fazia em detrimento da sua condição de solvência. É a partir da re-capitalização que o trabalho foca-se na verificação de características gerenciais da CAIXA, visando a alternativas que contribuam para a melhoria dos instrumentos de controle e gestão, de forma a garantir sua permanência de forma competitiva no mercado.

Gestão por resultados e eficiência na administração pública: uma análise à luz da experiência do governo de Minas Gerais

O presente estudo analisa a relação causal entre Gestão por Resultados, eficiência e “accountability”, subjacente ao receituário da Nova Gestão Pública. Para isso fazemos uma discussão teórica que visa a definir o conceito de eficiência, principalmente para incorporar sua dimensão política, os limites políticos e organizacionais à sua realização, e os contornos de um modelo normativo de Gestão por Resultados, este elaborado à luz dos conceitos de coordenação intragovernamental da tomada de decisão e da implementação, mecanismos de coordenação e indicadores de resultados. As implicações dessa discussão são então ilustradas e complementadas a partir da análise do Choque de Gestão de Minas Gerais, experiência importante no âmbito da NGP, particularmente no tocante à contratualização de resultados. Como conclusões, a constatação que a experiência mineira ainda é tímida na orientação para resultados entendidos como efeitos, embora tenha avançado no controle por produtos, e que o próprio modelo de Gestão por Resultados apresenta alta probabilidade de incorrer em déficits de responsividade e de “accountability” e mesmo em ineficiência. Finalmente, argumenta-se que iniciativas devem ser empreendidas no sentido do estudo e do desenvolvimento de métodos de coordenação por valores e habilidades.
