Gestão de recursos: olhares e possibilidades das parcerias entre as fundações de apoio e a Universidade Federal do Cariri- UFCA.

Abstract

The support foundations have a private and non-profit legal nature. They are instituted with the purpose of providing support to research, teaching and extension projects and institutional, scientific and technological development of interest to the supported institutions and, primarily, to the development of innovation and scientific and technological research. In this way, they create more favorable conditions for the supported institutions to establish relations with the external environment, including the administrative and financial management strictly necessary for the execution of these projects. The objective of this study is to analyze the performance of support foundations at the Federal University of Cariri (UFCA), regarding the management of funds raised for the development of academic activities (teaching, research, extension, culture, institutional development and innovation). The search for better results is an organizational imperative, and as a result, new actions and management techniques capable of increasing organizational efficiency in the execution of resources are sought through support foundations, which aim to provide and encourage administrative and financial support to the public universities, so necessary to execute projects in a more agile and flexible way. The reality is similar in the administrations of other federal institutions of higher education, which in recent years have been going through a process of budget restrictions. The methodology used for the development of the work was bibliographical research of a descriptive nature, through analysis of the documents and analysis of the contents made available by UFCA, providing as a result the elaboration of the Partnership Manual, starting from the positive points listed and having elements that enhance managerial processes, through detailed information that speeds up the partnership process, as well as management and accountability processes.
