Dissertação (Mestrado em Administração Pública) - Escola de Governo Professor Paulo Neves de Carvalho da Fundação João Pinheiro, 2025.https://repositorio.fjp.mg.gov.br/handle/123456789/4523Orientadora: Simone Cristina DuflothThis study analyzes the trajectory of organizational arrangements from the Shared Services Center (CSC) to the Public Procurement Subsecretariat, focusing on the institutionalization process of the Centralized Procurement Policy within the executive branch of Minas Gerais. In this context, organizational change goes beyond purely technical aspects, constituting a continuous adaptation process to cultural and political forces within a complex environment shaped by norms and social pressures. From the perspective of institutional theory, these transformations result from the interaction between modernization and the preservation of traditional practices, both influenced by historical and regulatory factors. The implementation of public policies, particularly in public administration, requires a balance between innovation and continuity, with the implementation phase being the critical moment when political intentions materialize into institutional actions, as highlighted by Dalfior, Lima, and Andrade (2015). Public sector reforms, shaped by economic and social pressures since the post-war period, have introduced efficiency principles from the private sector, as noted by Souza (2006), fostering the adoption of Shared Services Centers to optimize resources. In Minas Gerais, the managerial modernization movement included procurement centralization and the adoption of private-sector-inspired practices, with the implementation of the CSC, driven by the inauguration of the Administrative City in 2010, aiming to standardize and integrate processes to enhance resource efficiency. However, the CSC implementation process faced challenges that hindered its full consolidation. This study investigates the main factors affecting the implementation of the CSC as a centralized procurement policy, despite legislative advancements such as Law 14.133/2021, which reinforces the centralization approach but has fluctuated between expansion and retraction in Minas Gerais, preventing its full consolidation. The methodology employed combines bibliographic and documentary analysis with semistructured interviews conducted with managers and CSC participants, allowing for an examination of the historical, political, and organizational factors that shaped its institutional arrangement. The findings indicate a balance between positive influences, such as alignment with global trends and technological advancements, and negative factors, including cultural resistance and communication failures, reinforcing the need for adaptive strategies to consolidate innovative policies in the public sector.open accessCompra (Serviço Público)ModernizaçãoMinas GeraisAdministração PúblicaDissertaçãoCIENCIAS SOCIAIS APLICADAS::ADMINISTRACAO::ADMINISTRACAO PUBLICA
