As of 2009, especially after the enactment of Law No. 11.947/2009, the managers of the National School Meal Program-PNAE must use at least 30% of the total funds received from the Federal Government, for purchasing food produced by agricultural and rural family entrepreneurs. The purchase of food must be subject to a public call for tenders, according to Law No. 8.666/1993, that must include specifications on the expected goods or services. The aim of this study was to verify PNAE’s managers’ compliance with the current laws on the subject, when preparing the public calls for tenders. The sample consisted of 201 public calls for tenders in the period between January and July 2013, electronically obtained between June and July 2013. The results indicated non-compliance in all of the surveyed areas, lacking basic information, related to the classification of foods, to the rural family entrepreneurs. It was concluded that most managers consider neither the legislation in force for the PNAE nor the issue of food safety and quality, as a result of problems in the design of the public calls for tenders; it was also concluded that, at least in this research, the participation of nutritionists was not identified, although 95% of the implementers have this professionals as head coaches.Downloads
