Ápice Consultoria

What Ápice Consultoria does

Ápice Consultoria is a Brazilian private consulting firm headquartered in Campina Grande, Paraíba, founded in 2020 and operating with approximately 16 employees under CNPJ 29.620.239/0001-46. The company delivers public sector professional services to municipal governments across Paraíba and Pernambuco, organized around two core offerings: (1) Cursos de Capacitação Profissional — structured capacity-building courses for public sector employees across four service lines (Educação, Saúde, Assistência Social, and Administração), and (2) Concursos Públicos e Processos Seletivos — end-to-end design, administration, and management of public examinations for civil service hiring. Customers are municipal Secretarias de Educação, Saúde, and Assistência Social in more than 50 municipalities, with episodic engagement per client tied to training cycles and hiring mandates.

The underlying technology is a WordPress-based website with an integrated course and exam management system. Online training is delivered through a proprietary video platform embedded in the corporate website, with CPF-based participant authentication and digital certificate issuance. The firm also offers a proprietary educational assessment product, the Sistema de Avaliação Educacional Continuum, used to evaluate student learning outcomes in municipal school networks and award medals to top performers. Distribution is primarily direct-contract with municipal prefeituras, supplemented by an in-person and online event channel and paid workshop registrations via the third-party Sympla ticketing platform.

Revenue is generated through three professional-services streams: government consulting and training contracts (the primary stream), public examination administration, and workshop/course registrations. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; contracts are negotiated on a project basis with each municipal government, and workshop fees are set per event via Sympla. The go-to-market combines direct municipal government relationships, participation in public sector forums such as FOGESP, digital content marketing via website/Instagram/YouTube, and event-driven credibility building. Ownership is private, with no disclosed shareholders, founders, funding rounds, or institutional investors; the firm appears to operate as an independent small business.

2. Public Examination (Concurso Público) Services: The company organizes and administers public competitions and selective processes on behalf of municipal governments, generating fees for the design, execution, and management of hiring examinations for civil service positions.
3. Workshop and Course Registrations: Revenue is also generated through paid registrations for professional workshops and training courses, such as the Work Shop de Capacitação Profissional em Doenças Raras, using third-party ticketing platforms (Sympla) for enrollment management.
