RESUMO

This main goal of this study is to investigate the influence of strategic factors in the conception of the strategic cost management system in a foundational entity. To better understand the specificities of foundations, a theorical referential on its mains aspects is developed: patrimony, resource sources and governance structure. After that, strategic factors were considered on these organizations, based on Almeidas´s theorical referential (2003) about strategy formulation and implementation. Concerning strategic management cost, it´s presented Soutes´ definition (2006) of management cost tools, in which its arrangements/fits are responsible for the conception of the Strategic Cost Management system. Then, this study presents an exploratory case study applied on Fundação Instituto de Administração, a private foundation that works on education, research and extension on the state of São Paulo. The application of the case study was made personally by the researcher with the Finance Director and Budget and Finance Manager of the foundation, and managed to contribute with insights about strategic factors that were considered in the management cost tools selection for the strategic cost management system in the last years. One may conclude that cost management system changes must occur only when strategic positioning changes happen. Besides, as a conclusion, private foundations must follow fundamental principles of sustainability and transparency so that they can assure their social main goals are met. Finally, it suggests that tests may be done in order to adapt Porter´s value chain model (1985) to a better functioning in private foundations.
