Análise do processo de implantação do balanced scorecard: o caso do painel corporativo de uma empresa brasileira do setor público

Um assunto cada vez mais recorrente na literatura sobre administração é a questão dos modismos de gestão. Nos anos 90 se observou a euforia em torno da gestão pela qualidade total (TQM) e a explosão da reengenharia de processos, que veio junto com a terceirização. Em seguida emergiu o conceito de core-competencies ou competências essências que deu origem à revolução da gestão baseada em competências. Surgido nos anos 90, a partir de pesquisas acadêmicas, o Balanced Scorecard (BSC) aparece como uma nova tecnologia de gestão que rapidamente foi difundida e passou a ser utilizada por uma extensa gama de organizações. A recente utilização dessa tecnologia de gestão e o excesso de euforia sobre o tema trazem a tona o questionamento sobre a correta utilização da mesma. Sendo assim, essa pesquisa se dedica a fazer uma análise sobre a utilização do BSC em uma empresa brasileira do setor público frente à metodologia proposta pela literatura. Os resultados da pesquisa demonstraram que os motivos que levaram a empresa em questão a escolher o BSC como tecnologia de gestão e a construção do BSC foram coerentes com a metodologia proposta pela literatura. Por fim a pesquisa também revelou dois resultados inesperados: primeiro um possível fator de sucesso na utilização do BSC não encontrado na literatura; e segundo uma certa peculiaridade quanto a adoção dessa tecnologia de gestão em empresas do setor público.

Escolas de governo e escolas de serviço público: limites e problemas (Estudo de Caso da FESP/RJ e FUNDAP/SP)

Este trabalho busca identificar um campo específico de atuação para instituições vinculadas a governos estaduais que atuam com capacitação e que são denominadas Escolas de Governo. Toma como estudo de caso as experiências da FUNDAP, em São Paulo e da FESP, no Rio de Janeiro e, a partir de uma análise crítica sobre o modo de funcionamento, missão e público alvo dessas instituições, busca sinalizar novos caminhos e possibilidades para consolidação dessas instituições no Brasil. Examina o modelo adotado pela Escola Nacional de Administração Pública, ENAP, que serviu de referência para as Escolas de Governo estudadas, buscando identificar os problemas existentes na práxis dessas duas instituições e demonstrar que esses se situam, não na qualidade e no desempenho de seus cursos e programas de capacitação, mas sim na sua própria concepção e missão.

Princípio republicano, cargo em comissão e clientelismo político nos municípios do estado do Rio de Janeiro: reflexões sobre a profissionalização da função pública no Brasil

A origem do comportamento orientado para a conquista de cargos públicos no Brasil remonta à formação dos primeiros povoados e vilas durante o período colonial. O nepotismo e o clientelismo político perpassam toda a história do País. Tendo como fio condutor o princípio republicano, buscou-se verificar até que ponto são os cargos em comissão utilizados no âmbito dos Municípios do Estado do Rio de Janeiro como estratégia para manter e atualizar práticas clientelísticas como o empreguismo e o nepotismo. A utilização de métodos e técnicas de análise documental e de conteúdo, em dispositivos legais produzidos pelos municípios estudados e em Relatórios de Inspeções Ordinárias neles realizadas pelo Tribunal de Contas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, permitiu não só o proceder de uma análise qualitativa como o uso de técnicas quantitativas e representações gráficas dos achados, possibilitando uma leitura mais amena àqueles que têm pouco contato com a matéria. Essa complementaridade de métodos permitiu depreender que as ações empreendidas pelos gestores públicos, no que tange à utilização da livre nomeação, encontram-se na contramão da prática da cidadania, do igualitarismo, do respeito ao servir público. A pesquisa atestou que a quase totalidade dos municípios estudados se utiliza dos cargos em comissão de forma totalmente avessa à prevista constitucionalmente, servindo tais cargos, na verdade, para dar ingresso no serviço público a pessoas das relações do administrador, não para assessorá-lo, mas para aumentar renda familiar, cumprir compromissos de campanha e, até mesmo, para, em troca de votos, exercerem funções que por suas características deveriam ser oferecidas em concurso a toda sociedade. O estudo sugere, ao fim, um conjunto de medidas, baseadas em critérios fundamentados em princípios científicos de gestão, visando à valorização do servidor público, à redução do grau de politização da direção da administração pública e da apropriação patrimonialista dos postos de trabalho, à aceleração da profissionalização das funções públicas e a restringir o livre provimento de cargos em comissão, bem como a impingir sanções, por improbidade administrativa, aos que as desrespeitarem. Em que pese à importância de medidas preventivas, orientadas para o desenvolvimento de uma postura no sentido de um autêntico servir público, a tendência à permissividade precisa ser urgentemente afastada.

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.

Fatores relevantes na construção de processos government-to-government no Banco Central do Brasil

This dissertation seeks to recognize the factors, which are relevant to the construction of the processes Government-to-Government (G2G), and how these factors influence the success of those processes. For this research, two existing cases in Banco Central do Brasil (Bacen) were used: i) the Banco Central do Brasil (BACEN) X Senado Federal case; and the Bacen x Poder Judiciário case. The framework of this dissertation is based on the methodology of multiple study cases described by Robert Yin (2001). This work analyzed separately each of the cases and compared the results obtained in each analysis. In this way, this research aimed at analyzing the reasons that led these cases to gain such distinct outcomes, despite the existing potential benefits in each one of them. The obtained results suggest that three factors influence the success of G2G processes in a relevant way: computational safety; the culture of the organizations involved; and the capacitation of people involved. Each of these factors, according to what results showed, bring a set of considerations which should be observed by the public administrator in relation to the strategies of implementation of G2G processes.

Gestão de carreiras na sociedade do conhecimento : uma análise de suas características no Brasil

This paper aims to identify the main characteristics undertaken by the brazilian non governmental organization (NGO's) and the political, social, economical and personal factors that have contributed for the impressive growth of these organizations which has been observed on the past two decades. The thesis defended herein is that these organizations were legitimated by the society, despite the lack of transparency that surrounds their practice. By acknowledging that the term has many meanings, and that there is no legal consolidated mark to delimit exactly what a NGO is, the research has adopted a very specific universe: the NGO's affiliated to the Associação Brasileira de Organizações Não-Governamentais (ABONG), located in Rio de Janeiro. The characteristics undertaken by the researched organizations were raised through interviews with its directors, visits to its headquarters and institutional documents that were made available. Mind makers of the Rio de Janeiro¿s society were also interviewed. The data research was also aided by the revision of the available literature. The Social Representation Theory was used in order to have a better understanding of the relationship that society has established with the NGO's. The thesis reveals that the characteristics undertaken by the NGO's are very different. In regards to the factors that have induced the growth of these organizations, we can notice a significant reduction of the States' acting. Also pointed out are the non existence of an adequate legislation, the facilities offered by the partnership established, the prevailing of a positive image for the society, the lack of inspection and the increasing social needs of the country which stand out as possible inductors of the expansion of these organizations.
