SUMMARY:

The development of capitalism, the industrial revolution and the consolidation of the technological revolution, provided the increase of large-scale production, feeding a social behavior more linked to consumerism and the search for artificial comfort that these products can bring. As a result, the current consumption pattern is generating disastrous consequences on the planet that compromise the existence of a balanced environment, putting at risk human existence and the survival of future generations, as well as the integrity of various ecosystems. In Brazil, the government procurement sector moves resources estimated at 12% of GDP and the amount spent by the federal government on public procurement between the years 2017 to 2021 exceeds 751 billion reais. The considerable size of the government procurement power highlights the Public Administration as a fundamental piece for the consolidation of sustainable development in the institutional arena. In this structure, the Federal Institutions of Higher Education - IFES have an impact on the life of a portion of society, beyond the university walls, also acting in behavioral changes. Therefore, it is important to know the performance of IFES, such as the Universidade Federal do Sul da Bahia -UFSB, regarding the adoption of sustainability criteria in public purchases, since these practices are compulsory by legal obligation, so the intended study, besides resulting in a service to society, will open more field for the investigation of solutions that aim to strengthen these consumption practices and sustainable public policies in the Administration. The objective of this work is, based on the investigation of the operationalization of sustainable public purchasing at the Universidade Federal do Sul da Bahia, to analyze the incidence of sustainability criteria in bidding processes executed by this federal institution of higher education, trying to find out if they have a set of socio-environmental criteria that aim to reduce negative impacts on the environment and actions that seek to promote some social effect. This research will be conducted from the analysis of bidding notices for the acquisition of permanent goods and office supplies, focusing on the institution Universidade Federal do Sul da Bahia - UFSB, referring to bids held in the period between 2014 and 2022. Concomitantly, the research also includes a qualitative investigation, with exploratory purposes, conducted through a data collection instrument that aims to verify the knowledge of sustainability criteria in public procurement and diagnose the main difficulties in applying these criteria in bidding processes. This work intends to provide subsidies to detect the main difficulties in the use of more sustainable criteria in the institution's bidding procedures, thus being able to guide actions in the construction of procurement processes, in order to contribute to a more effective structuring of these sustainability criteria in the various documents that compose it. This study also seeks to contribute to the knowledge of the area, identifying scenarios, gaps, investigation fronts and opportunities for scientific research in sustainable public purchasing at a federal university.
