Lei 8.666/93 x Lei 13.303/16: comparativo entre metodologias de aplicação para obras de esgotamento sanitário

Abstract

The hiring of engineering companies for the execution of public works must be made through an administrative procedure called bidding. This procedure is defined by specific law that provides for different modalities and hiring regimes, and the bidding company is responsible for proceeding in the most convenient way aiming at efficiency and economy. In the case of the Companhia de Águas e Esgotos do Rio Grande do Norte (CAERN) because it is a mixed capital company, the bids were conducted in accordance with Law 8.666 / 93. However, in 2016, the law 13.303 was enacted, which includes new determinations for the bidding procedure for public companies and mixed capital companies, establishing that these entities should be adjusted by 2018. This article corresponds to a methodological comparison between two sewage works, one bid work in accordance with law 8.666 and the other in accordance with law 13.303, that considers inspection, measurements, payment, schedule, management and additives parameters. The comparison was made based on data provided by CAERN and the analysis and interpretation of both laws. With these data, it was possible to highlight the particularities of each law in relation to the pillars of engineering works management even as the opportunities for improvement, since the new law aims to adjust and increase the determinations of Law 8.666 in order to reduce possible damage to the treasury public and facilitate the progress of the work.
