Participate in public tenders and, in this way, expanding the business is something that many companies bet on. However, for small and medium entrepreneurs this reality may be more distant due to bureaucracy and the lack of expertise in participating, gather the correct documentation and also monitor the processes
For this group of entrepreneurs, solutions like those offered by Licitar Digital, they democratize the purchasing processes, once the platform connects public entities to a greater range of suppliers of all sizes, what can be a game changer in the growth of small and medium enterprises
Operating with five bidding modalities provided for in Law No. 14.133/202 – auction, auction, exemption, accreditation and competition – the solutions of Licitar Digital make the set of administrative procedures and the entire protocol process something simple, easy, uncomplicated and transparent
One of the great innovations of the platform is the marketplace, that is inspired by e-commerce platforms like Amazon and Mercado Livre. Unlike other traditional bidding procedures, in this model it is possible to acquire goods and services for up to a year after the approved process. Suppliers may change their prices throughout the entire duration of the notice. However, the decision criterion will continue to be the lowest value on the closing date
We connect public management, the supply sector and society in a sustainable way, where all participants benefit. We are a technology platform that goes far beyond a showcase of bids and, by democratizing access to public tenders, we empower small entrepreneurs, says Thiago Pedra CEO of Licitar Digital
Success stories
Among the success stories in the use of the services offered by Licitar Digital is the bakery and pastry shop Morro Vermelho, located in Sete Lagoas, Minas Gerais. Before using the platform, the process to participate in government tenders was much more time-consuming and bureaucratic, what kept the place out of some auctions
"I believe there is a lot that can improve for us with this online bidding model", especially because digitalization is always growing and innovating. Deregulation is one of the biggest advantages, a great advance, affirms Fernando Dumont Paiva Lopes, owner and responsible for participating in the bidding processes
For the entrepreneur, the ease of doing everything online, from anywhere, without the need to attend in person for document submission and the support provided by the Licitar Digital team have changed the landscape for those participating in bidding processes
The democratization and ease offered by the platform also attract the attention of companies that have been participating in bids for years, however, they always find some bottleneck in the bureaucracy of the process
It is the case of Prolagos, that produces health products. Also located in Sete Lagoas, the company chose Licitar Digital as a platform to connect with public tenders in a secure and agile way
Some facilities catch our attention a lot, as they facilitate and streamline the work of the team responsible for participating in the tenders. The platform came to meet a need and helps us to operate with great peace of mind, because we now have full support and clarity of the system, explain Julie Santos, responsible for the company's bids
According to her, one of the advantages of the deregulation proposed by Licitar Digital is the tab to attach the documentation."With a click, everything is ready", just finish and send. Also remembering that the company has the option to already attach the documents and just review and finalize the proposal. And since the system does not accept duplicate documents, the possibility of errors decreases, affirms Julie Santos
Agility as an ally
Since 2019, the platform has proven to be an important ally in terms of saving time and budget. In total, more than 36 thousand bids have been held and a total of R$ 36 billion in contracts signed. One of the biggest advantages of Licitar Digital is the speed, because the average time for the completion of bidding processes is 12 days. By traditional means, a tender can take up to 120 days, for example
We received various feedback from entrepreneurs on how the use of our system and digital transformation impacted their internal processes and gains. By providing a more democratic scenario in the participation of tenders, we support all sizes of businesses and contribute to enabling more and more companies to register with all the ease that technology can offer, without compromising safety, transparency and support from a skilled team, stone account

In addition to having already achieved ISO 9001 certification, that guarantees the quality of the processes, the company is also implementing the ISO 27001 (information security) and ISO 27701 (LGPD) standards, ISO 37001 (Anti-bribery) and ISO 37301 (Compliance)
