Controle social e políticas públicas: contribuições para aprimorar o controle social do programa nacional de alimentação escolar

The National School Feeding Programme (PNAE) is a public policy in Brazil for over 60 years and represents one of the most important programs of feeding and nutrition in the world. The role of family farming as a source of employment in rural areas, food provider and for ensuring much of the Brazil’s food security is constantly present at the government's and social movement’s agendas. Law 11.947 of 2009 marked its integration in the food supply for the National School Feeding Programme. Article 14 of aforementioned law highlights that a minimum of 30% (thirty percent) of the funds transferred by the National Development Fund Education (FNDE) to the Programme must be used for the purchase of food directly from family farmers or their organizations. The national school feeding policy under the responsibility of the FNDE and is subjected to agencies of internal control, such as the General Controllership of the Union (CGU), of external control, such as the Audit Courts of the Union and the of the states, and to the social control of the school feeding councils. Those funds are transferred to the implementing agencies, which are the education offices of the states, municipalities and of the Federal District. These entities must annually present their accountings to the School Feeding Councils, which analyze them and then issue a conclusive report to the FNDE, approving with or without reservations, or rejecting them. In this sense, this research aims to propose parameters that should contribute to the improvement of the social control over purchases from family farming for the National School Feeding Programme. The study was conducted by non parametric sampling alongside the managers of the implementing entities, school feeding councils and Family Farming Organizations all across Brazil, from the databases provided by FNDE and by the National Union of Cooperatives of Family Agriculture and Solidarity Economy (Unicafes). The study points out that the legal framework of PNAE seeks to ensure the participation of family farming in the food supply for the Programme, despite allowing the executing agencies to justify the non-compliance of the minimum required in a number of ways. The survey also signalizes that the school feeding councils follow the implementation of the Programme very shyly, and points out that there is room to expand and enhance the participation of these councils and organizations of family farming in the execution of PNAE. Its effectiveness requires a constant and effective process of training of the agents involved in the Programme.

Novos Modelos Organizacionais no setor da saúde

Pretende-se com este trabalho, abordar a problemática associada a uma nova administração e governação de empresas pertencentes ao sector da saúde. As novas tendências organizacionais, em termos de qualidade, produtividade e rentabilidade, são essenciais para estruturação de empresas, quer públicas, quer privadas, gerando novos desafios face a novas necessidades. Administrar, mas administrar bem, significa ter qualidade na administração, levando-nos à prática de uma gestão de qualidade. A qualidade nas organizações, passa por novas funções da administração pública e privada, na ideia de liderança, na relação de confiança e, sobretudo, de trabalho em rede. Uma forma organizativa que surge como forma inovadora na área da saúde é a do franchising, não só pela sua estrutura menos hierarquizada, como uma forma inovadora na estrutura de mercado. Este tipo estrutural permite a interacção em rede e o desenvolvimento de novos mecanismos de governação. Ser competitivo em escala pode ser resultado da actividade gerada por micro sistemas organizacionais. “ Think smart start small”. A forma de aproximar os serviços ao cidadão passa por uma forma organizativa mais simplificada e mais independente em termos de hierarquias. O franchising vem criar essa interacção e operacionalização no mercado, para que se torne mais eficiente e eficaz. Desta forma surgem novas formas organizativas no sector da saúde e bem-estar, o que vai gerar novas regras comportamentais e estruturais. Todo este sistema obriga a alterações na legislação, nos recursos humanos e contratualização de serviços e produtos. Palavras chave: administração, organização, qualidade, mecanismo de administração, governação, franchising, inovação, confiança e redes.

A simplificação administrativa nos processos de obras particulares: a perceção e a realidade dos procedimentos de comunicação prévia

Com base no movimento da New Public Management (NPM) têm sido introduzidas alterações na Administração Pública com vista a uma gestão racional e eficiente e voltada para a satisfação do cidadão, implicando uma mudança do papel tradicional do Estado que de prestador de serviços, passa a regulador desses mesmos serviços. Também, em Portugal, principalmente a partir de 2005 (no XVII Governo Constitucional), se tem vindo a assistir a um impulso na reforma da Administração Pública, designadamente através do Programa Simplex, cujo objetivo é a simplificação administrativa e legislativa. Para esse efeito, foram introduzidas diversas alterações legislativas, entre as quais a alteração dada pela Lei n.º 60/2007, de 4 de setembro, ao Decreto-Lei n.º 555/99, de 16 de dezembro, que estabelece o Regime Jurídico da Urbanização e Edificação (RJUE), visando a simplificação dos procedimentos relativos ao controlo prévio das operações urbanísticas. É neste contexto que a figura da comunicação prévia passa a assumir um papel preponderante, como um instrumento de gestão urbanística mais célere, implicando uma diminuição do controlo preventivo por parte da Administração e reforçando a fiscalização a posteriori bem como a responsabilização dos intervenientes. Tendo como suporte a revisão da literatura e o estudo empírico abrangendo os Municípios de Esposende, Póvoa de Varzim e Vila do Conde, são analisadas as alterações legislativas introduzidas pelo Simplex no âmbito do RJUE, ao nível processual e procedimental - em particular os procedimentos sujeitos a comunicação prévia, comparando-os com os procedimentos de licenciamento e de autorização - com vista a indagar se o programa Simplex, simplificou verdadeiramente os procedimentos administrativos no âmbito do controlo prévio das operações urbanísticas.

Avaliação do desempenho na Polícia de Segurança Pública (PSP) - estudo de caso do Comando Distrital da PSP de Braga

Com esta dissertação pretende-se estudar o modelo de avaliação de desempenho existente na Polícia de Segurança Pública (PSP), a nível central e a nível do Comando Distrital da PSP de Braga, bem como a forma como ambos os modelos se articulam. Tendo em conta a revisão de literatura efetuada, constata-se que a avaliação de desempenho tem vindo a assumir um papel importante na Polícia, sendo útil para melhorar os serviços prestados, apoiar na tomada de decisões, responsabilizar os gestores e prestar contas à sociedade. A literatura refere ainda que a Polícia é um serviço difícil de avaliar devido à diversidade de atividades que esta desenvolve e à dificuldade em aferir a segurança dos cidadãos e a redução da criminalidade. Para se perceber o modelo de avaliação existente na PSP propõe-se fazer um estudo de caso, através de entrevistas, contando com a colaboração do Diretor Nacional Adjunto da Unidade Orgânica de Recursos Humanos, do 2º Comandante Distrital do Comando Distrital de Braga e do Diretor do Gabinete de Estudos e Planeamento da Direção Nacional da PSP. Neste estudo verifica-se que o modelo de avaliação de desempenho da PSP é um modelo centralizado uma vez que é a Direção Nacional (DN) da PSP que define os objetivos estratégicos, os objetivos operacionais, os indicadores e as metas para todo o seu universo. Os resultados desta avaliação são apresentados no Relatório de Atividades da PSP. A nível central também é utilizado o Sistema Integrado de Gestão e Avaliação de Desempenho na Administração Pública – Quadro de Avaliação e Responsabilidades (SIADAP – QUAR). Por outro lado, ao nível do Comando Distrital de Braga verifica-se que não existe um modelo de avaliação de desempenho. Estes recebem a informação sobre os objetivos operacionais, os indicadores e as metas a atingir estabelecidas pela DN, que tentam cumprir num determinado período e no final comunicam-lhes os resultados. A DN agrega todos os resultados a nível Nacional e faz a avaliação global do desempenho da PSP. O estudo mostra ainda que há uma forte predisposição para a implementação de um modelo de avaliação de desempenho baseado na metodologia Balanced Scorecard (BSC), por este ser considerado um modelo eficaz, com larga utilização a nível mundial e com bons resultados alcançados. Atualmente a DN já define o seu quadro estratégico baseado nas quatro perspetivas do BSC: perspetiva do cliente, perspetiva financeira, perspetiva dos processos internos e perspetiva da aprendizagem. Contudo, até ao momento não são apresentados os resultados desta avaliação de acordo com o modelo BSC. Conclui-se, por isso, que o modelo de avaliação existente na PSP é um modelo extremamente centralizado na DN, sendo reduzido o envolvimento dos Comandos Distritais neste processo.
