Abstract
The principle of efficiency must be a constant obstinacy of the public administration. This paper investigated the variables that impact the efficiency of public purchases, focusing on the celerity, specifically in the internal phase named “Pregão” modality, through a quantitative approach. This is a case study of forty-nine processes that occurred between 2020 and 2021 within the Ministry of Justice. Through linear regression, with the dependent variable representing the total time of the internal phase, the variable representing the time for drafting the Terms of Reference increases the duration of the process, while the duration of the Preliminary Technical Study reduces the bidding period. In logistic regression, the time spent preparing the Terms of Reference had a positive impact on the probability of generating items not awarded, while the time spent preparing the price survey reduced this probability. In conclusion, it is pointed out that the administration's opportunity to reduce the time of development of the Terms of Reference and to give greater attention to the Preliminary Technical Study and price research.
