Its main features are: agility, reducing bureaucracy, transparency, price reduction and expansion of competitiveness, since bidders can compete from a distance, allowing the participation of Micro and Small Companies. Despite the positive characteristics attributed to this modality, even so, it is necessary to analyze in detail the data related to the acquisition of goods and common services, as the basic principles of Public Administration, specifically, the principle of efficiency. Based on this, the present study aims to identify positive and negative aspects related to economy, celerity, isonomic competitiveness under the benefits granted by the status of Micro and Small Companies. Besides that, it also aims to identify the cancellation of items in public procurement through bidding processes through the electronic trading modality at Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Sertão Pernambucano, in the financial year of 2014. So it is a case study in the Department of Bidding and Purchasing, at the Institute aforementioned, regarding the bidding process. It is also an exploratory and documentary research with a quantitative approach. The sample was 35 electronic auctions, and these data were extracted from the electronic site of the Federal Government Purchases (www.comprasgovernamentais.gov.br), known as ComprasNet, as well as physical and electronic files produced by Bidding Permanent Commission of Auctions in 2014. The results revealed that 35 auctions sessions were approved, 11 of continued services, 8 non-continuous services, 10 consumer goods and 6 permanent assets. Together, these sessions resulted in a saving of resources for the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Sertão Pernambucano above average in other Public Organizations. In addition, the study revealed that the category of non-continuous service was the one with the largest economy of resources and celerity, with a shorter duration of days on the trading external phase. Similarly, it was observed a greater economy of resources and celerity in tenders whose criterion of judgment was the lowest price per item. However, this criterion had the highest number of canceled items. Regarding the participation of Micro and Small Companies in the results of bidding, it was identified that these companies accounted for a higher percentage of the total amount approved in the electronic trading sessions when compared to other business environments. However, small businesses in the Sertão of Pernambuco were those that had the lowest share in the results of the total amount approved in spite of the incentive granted by Complementary Law nº 123/2006. Another important result was that there was a high number of canceled items, mainly due to unsuccessful bidding. The main reasons of this were the bids of the bidders above the estimated price by the Administration of the Institute and the disqualification for irregularities in the qualification documents. Therefore, this study identified greater economy and efficiency in biddings related to non-continuous services and when the judgment criterion adopted was the lowest price per item. However, it was observed high rate of canceled items and little participation of local small businesses.Acesso AbertoPregão eletrônicoCompras públicasEconomicidadeCeleridadeMicroempresas e empresas de pequeno portemasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS: GESTÃO DE PROCESSOS INSTITUCIONAIS
