Acquisition, at the lowest price per lot, of IT equipment, including desktop computers and printers, intended for the maintenance of the activities of the existing sectors of the municipal government, as well as for the structuring and operation of the new specialized social assistance reference center (CREAS). This contracting is justified by the urgent need

ACQUISITION, AT THE LOWEST PRICE PER LOT, OF IT EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING DESKTOP COMPUTERS AND PRINTERS, INTENDED FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF THE ACTIVITIES OF THE EXISTING SECTORS OF THE MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT, AS WELL AS FOR THE STRUCTURING AND OPERATION OF THE NEW SPECIALIZED SOCIAL ASSISTANCE REFERENCE CENTER (CREAS).

THIS CONTRACTING IS JUSTIFIED BY THE URGENT NEED TO ACQUIRE IT EQUIPMENT INTENDED FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF THE ACTIVITIES OF THE SECTORS OF THE MUNICIPAL ADMINISTRATION OF SANTANA DE CATAGUASES, AS WELL AS FOR THE STRUCTURING AND OPERATION OF THE SERVICE ROOM OF THE SPECIALIZED SOCIAL ASSISTANCE REFERENCE CENTER (CREAS). IN THE LAST 12 (TWELVE) MONTHS, THE ADMINISTRATION HAS BEEN MAKING EFFORTS TO CARRY OUT A BIDDING PROCESS IN THE MODALITY OF AUCTION AIMED AT THE ACQUISITION OF THIS EQUIPMENT. HOWEVER, THE AUCTIONS HELD WERE UNSUCCESSFUL OR WERE INTERRUPTED DUE TO PROCEDURAL INCONSISTENCIES, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO CONCLUDE THE CONTRACT REGULARLY. FURTHERMORE, THE LAST BIDDING PROCESS INITIATED WAS THE SUBJECT OF A COMPLAINT TO THE COURT OF ACCOUNTS OF THE STATE OF MINAS GERAIS (TCE-MG), BEING UNDER ANALYSIS SINCE NOVEMBER 2025, WITH NO MOVEMENT TO DATE, WHICH MAKES ITS CONCLUSION IMPOSSIBLE AND PREVENTS THE ADOPTION OF RESULTING ADMINISTRATIVE MEASURES. AS A RESULT OF THIS SITUATION, THE ADMINISTRATIVE SECTORS HAVE BEEN OPERATING WITH OBSOLETE, INSUFFICIENT, OR INOPERABLE EQUIPMENT, WHICH SIGNIFICANTLY COMPROMISES THE PERFORMANCE OF THE EMPLOYEES' ACTIVITIES, HINDERS THE REGISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT OF INFORMATION IN IT SYSTEMS, AND DIRECTLY IMPACTS THE QUALITY AND CONTINUITY OF PUBLIC SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE POPULATION. THIS SCENARIO VIOLATES THE PRINCIPLE OF ADMINISTRATIVE EFFICIENCY, PROVIDED FOR IN ART. 37 OF THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTION, AS IT IMPEDES THE ADEQUATE PROVISION OF PUBLIC SERVICES AND COMPROMISES THE ATTENTION TO THE COLLECTIVE INTEREST. THE SITUATION IS AGGRAVATED BY THE NEED TO IMPLEMENT THE NEW SPECIALIZED SOCIAL ASSISTANCE REFERENCE CENTER (CREAS), AN ESSENTIAL UNIT FOR ATTENDING TO SENSITIVE SOCIAL DEMANDS, FOR WHICH THE MUNICIPALITY CURRENTLY LACKS MINIMUM MATERIAL CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION, ESPECIALLY REGARDING TECHNOLOGICAL INFRASTRUCTURE. IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT, EVEN WITH THE FORMALIZATION OF THE CONTRACT, THERE WILL BE A NECESSARY PERIOD FOR THE DELIVERY OF THE EQUIPMENT, WHICH PROLONGS THE PERIOD OF STRUCTURAL INSUFFICIENCY FACED BY THE ADMINISTRATION, REINFORCING THE URGENCY IN ADOPTING IMMEDIATE MEASURES. GIVEN THIS EXCEPTIONAL CONTEXT, THE NEED FOR DIRECT CONTRACTING BY WAIVER OF BIDDING IS EVIDENT, UNDER THE TERMS OF ART. 75, ITEM II, OF FEDERAL LAW NO. 14.133/2021, AS A NECESSARY, ADEQUATE, AND PROPORTIONAL MEASURE TO ENSURE THE CONTINUITY OF PUBLIC SERVICES, SAFEGUARD THE PUBLIC INTEREST, AND ENABLE THE FULL OPERATION OF THE MUNICIPAL ADMINISTRATION AND THE NEW CREAS.
