What Prefeitura Municipal de Guaraqueçaba does

Prefeitura Municipal de Guaraqueçaba is the municipal government administration of Guaraqueçaba, a small municipality in the state of Paraná, Brazil, led by Mayor Sandro da Saúde. It delivers a full suite of mandated public services across 14 secretariats including Saúde (Health), Educação (Education), Finanças (Finance), Administração (Administration), Meio Ambiente (Environment), Obras e Transportes (Public Works), Pesca (Fisheries), Agricultura (Agriculture), and Turismo, Cultura, Esporte e Lazer (Tourism, Culture, Sports and Leisure). The municipality serves a geographically dispersed population spanning island communities (served via 5 maritime medical routes) and 9 rural continental communities (served by PSF Rural teams), with 14 active Basic Health Units providing primary healthcare. The government is overseen by the Tribunal de Contas do Estado do Paraná (TCE-PR) and operates under Brazilian constitutional public administration law.

Its core technology infrastructure is the ELOTECH municipal digital government platform, which underpins the Portal da Transparência (public transparency portal), Guará Digital (unified citizen services platform), Portal do Contribuinte (taxpayer portal), Portal do Servidor (public servant portal), E-SIC (electronic access to information per Lei Federal nº 12.527/2011), Nota Fiscal Eletrônica (electronic invoicing integrated with ISS collection), IPTU Digital (property tax), Ouvidoria (citizen complaint system), and Protocolo (document tracking). Healthcare delivery additionally uses the ESUS electronic health system. In 2025, the municipality advanced from 362nd to 332nd in the TCE-PR Transparency Index (ITP), with its transparency score rising from 57.84% to 68.23%, reflecting substantive administrative modernization.

The business model is that of a Brazilian municipal government: it does not generate commercial revenue, and services are funded through local tax collection (IPTU, ISS, other municipal taxes), federal transfers (FPM), state transfers, and intergovernmental agreements. Pricing is not applicable as services are publicly funded and freely provided to citizens. The municipality employs approximately 101 staff across its administrative and service delivery functions. Key partnerships include ELOTECH (technology platform), TCE-PR (oversight and transparency monitoring via Radar da Transparência), Instituto IGEDUC (public selection process execution), and Defensoria Pública Estadual (legal assistance services).
