Consórcio Interfederativo Santa Catarina - CINCATARINA

What Consórcio Interfederativo Santa Catarina - CINCATARINA does

CINCATARINA (Consórcio Interfederativo Santa Catarina) is a Brazilian public consortium (consórcio público) established in 2010 under Federal Law 11.107/2005, operating as an inter-federative autarchy that provides shared public services and consolidated procurement to municipalities in Santa Catarina state. As of 2026, the consortium serves all 295 municipalities of Santa Catarina (100% coverage), integrating them into the indirect public administration of each federative entity. The consortium is governed by a General Assembly of member-municipality chiefs and led by an Executive Director and a President (currently the Mayor of Tubarão). It employs 50 staff across two offices in Florianópolis and Fraiburgo.

The consortium's core technology platforms include GESCON (Sistema de Gestão de Serviços e Contratos Públicos) for managing contracts, pre-qualified goods catalogs, and registered pricing; e-CIGA for consortium operations; Assembleia Virtual for remote governance voting; and PEGI for internship program management. Service offerings span the Central de Compras Públicas (shared public procurement), public lighting maintenance, vehicle fleet management, mobile telephony aggregation (via Claro, Tim, Vivo), urban planning and Plano Diretor execution, basic sanitation planning, environmental and laboratory analyses, Microsoft licensing aggregation (Office 365, Power BI, Windows), and the Cartão Benefício Eventual social assistance program via LE CARD. The consortium is integrated with the Portal de Compras Públicas, e-Compras CNM, and CIGA systems.

Revenue is generated through three primary streams: annual rateio (shared contribution from each member municipality, calculated by an Assembly-approved methodology), service fees for technical studies, environmental analyses, fleet management, and laboratory testing (priced per hour or per unit), and managed services such as public lighting (R$0.60 per installed point/month) and mobile telephony subscription plans (R$29–R$150/month). The consortium has achieved 94.98% in the Public Transparency Index (Selo Ouro PNTP 2025) and 94.68 points in IMGG governance maturity (Bronze 4) — the only public consortium in Brazil with such certification.

Emerging players

• 1Doc: Brazilian govtech offering digital document management and process automation for public administration. Targets the same municipal customer base with overlapping digitalization services, though smaller in scale.

Direct peers

• ARIS - Agência Reguladora Intermunicipal de Saneamento: Inter-municipal regulatory agency in Santa Catarina providing sanitation regulation to municipalities. Operates the same inter-municipal public-service-delivery model with overlapping member base and FECAM System affiliation.
• IPM Sistemas: Brazilian govtech serving Santa Catarina municipalities with public-management software. Overlaps directly with CINCATARINA's customer base (SC municipalities) and competes in adjacent software-led public-service verticals.
• CIGA - Consórcio de Informática na Gestão Governamental: Santa Catarina-based informatics consortium providing IT solutions to public administration. Operates a closely analogous consortium-of-municipalities model and shares overlapping technology services and customers with CINCATARINA.
• Portal de Compras Públicas: Electronic bidding platform used by CINCATARINA and many Brazilian municipalities. Direct overlap in shared public-procurement technology and the same municipal-customer base across Brazil.

Others

• FECAM - Federação Catarinense dos Municípios: State federation of Santa Catarina municipalities providing advocacy, training, and representation rather than shared services. A sister organization in the FECAM System that shares members but plays a complementary rather than competitive role.

Broad incumbents

• CNM - Confederação Nacional de Municípios: National confederation representing all Brazilian municipalities and operator of the e-Compras CNM national procurement platform. Operates as a broader incumbent with nationwide scope, directly overlapping CINCATARINA's procurement mandate at scale.
• Softplan: Large Brazilian govtech headquartered in Florianópolis offering public-sector software including procurement and management tools. A broader incumbent with a much larger portfolio than CINCATARINA but serving the same municipal customer segment.
