With the new wording, the State, also based on Decree 55,631, published on December 9, 2020, now requires the implementation of an Integrity Program and Reporting Channel for companies that enter into any contract with the State Public Administration. What is the Integrity Program? Decree No. 8,420/2015 defined in its art. 41 what is the Integrity Program: “Integrity program consists, within a legal entity, of the set of internal mechanisms and procedures for integrity, auditing and encouraging the reporting of irregularities and the effective application of codes of ethics and conduct, policies and guidelines with the objective of detecting and remedy deviations, fraud, irregularities and illicit acts committed against the public administration, national or foreign.
The State requires an Integrity Program for companies, with a term equal to or greater than 180 days and whose overall value exceeds R$3.3 million, for engineering works and services, and R$1.43 million, for purchases and services . The previous Email Data text also required an Integrity Program, but for contracts with values exceeding R$330 thousand and R$176 thousand, respectively. The new wording states that the requirement must be applied to any legal entity, which may be a company, association, foundation, foreign company, simple company. Furthermore, the text clarified that the expression 'contract' should be interpreted broadly, and could be of any type (contract, agreement, consortium, partnership term, development term, etc.
TRAFFIC TICKET Failure to comply with the requirement set out in article 37 of Law 15600/2021 will result in a fine of up to 10% on the value of the contract and compliance with the implementation requirement will not imply reimbursement of the fines applied. Furthermore, the company may be unable to contract again by the State, until the situation is regularized, and registration in the Informative Register of Unpaid Credits of State Bodies and Entities (Cadin/RS).
