RESUMO

At the urban Public transportation in Brazil, the Purchasing area represents outstanding opportunities for the company cost reductions and profitability increase. Purchasing expenditures have a direct impact at the financial bottom line results: each monetary unit saved at the Purchasing side, generates the same in net profit, as it is a direct cost reduction. Due to the importance of Purchasing for the public transportation companies, this study is focused on characterizing and analysis of the Purchasing centralization process as well as the logistic chain management as a competitive factor and also as a guiding strategy for a Company in this market. The methodology chosen was the "Action Research" through a consulting, leaded by the author of this study in a local public transportation company. This "action research" searched the effective evidence of the modern supply administration, analyzing the Purchasing evolution with special focus on suppliers, but also for the price, delivery terms and quality aspects, but adding value to the supply chain as a whole. The Companies that belongs to this economy sector are facing the worst crisis in their history, lasting for more than 10 years, affected mostly by lack of demand and lower productivity levels. Considering the national average, the public transportation system decreased 35 % in terms of passengers comparing with 1995. The companies went into the scale economy approach in general and specifically in Purchasing, the reengineering moved forward the Purchasing centralization model. It was conclusive in our "action research" that our relative gains obtained with the Purchasing centralization, specially the feedback showed in the supplier price reduction, when centralized acquisition was in place.
