The privatization of the Santos Port and Docas de São Paulo Company (CODESP), aiming at modernizing its port management, attracting investments and improving the operation of the sector, has adherence to the sectorial policy and the Federal Government's guidelines for seeking investments in infrastructure through Partnerships with the private sector. The studies that involve the definition of the privatization model and contract guidelines will be contracted by Ministry of Infrastructure.
The project justifies, therefore, the premises that services and acquisition of products within the Brazilian public sector are obstacles to the efficient management of a port asset, which depends fundamentally on the agility in the decision making, in order to enable managers to react promptly to the ongoing processes of modernization and technological advances.
Thus, the participation of the private sector in these projects proves to be a viable alternative for the State's exemption regarding financial obligations as well as administrative matters, and will allow the private initiative to be entrusted with investment and management responsibilities, compatible with its technical, operational and financial capacity.
