Description
Summary:This article aims to identify characteristics that contribute to reducing the probability of delays and overpayment related to the construction of schools and other types of Education facilities in municipalities of Espírito Santo. The article carries out a literature review of the topics related to the efficient allocation of public resource and previous studies. The characteristics were then classified in five dimensions. Results indicate that the following variables contribute to avoid or reduce delays: type of bidding process, type of service, number of inhabitants, mayors in their second term and their party. Regarding overpayments, the significant characteristics were type of bidding process, number of inhabitants and the mayor’s party. This study contributes to the discussion on how public spending could be more efficient.
