Resumo: | |||||||||||||
Sustainable procurement implies the inclusion of social and environmental criteria
in addition to economic criteria in the procurement decision. This modality has been
growing among Universities and is essential for them to reach their sustainability
goals. In 2010, PUC-Rio instituted its Environmental Agenda, which lists
guidelines that encourage sustainable procurement and consumption. This research
aims to raise whether these guidelines are followed and which sustainability criteria
are adopted in the procurement processes of consumer items; identify the factors
that hinder its adoption and propose strategies and practices that enable the
systematic adoption of sustainable procurement at PUC-Rio. The qualitative
research method used was a single case study, having as its unit of analysis the
decision-making processes and procurement of consumer items in sectors of this
University. Purchase records between 2016 and 2020 were collected and in-depth
interviews were conducted with managers and employees involved in the processes.
It was identified that the procurement process at PUC-Rio is partially decentralized,
with the departments being responsible for adopting the criteria in the procurement
decision, which is a factor that hinders the adoption of a general policy of
sustainable procurement. For the most part, the procurement of consumer items do
not take into account sustainability criteria, nor is there a record of sustainable
suppliers. The interviews revealed that it is desirable and necessary to adopt a
procurement policy and create strategies that guide the university sectors in their
procurement, as well as in monitoring procurement and consumption data to meet
the guidelines of PUC-Rio s Environmental Agenda.
