In 2012 ONS continued to improve processes control and monitoring of purchase, giving full transparency to expenditure on acquisitions of goods and services by the Organization.

The major initiative in 2012 was the beginning of the deployment tool GCVC (Contract Life Cycle Management), which allows the control of the requests, with workflow by visualizing their internal customers, the purchase of goods and services, controls and checklists of contracts registered in the corporate system - enabling monitoring of contractual balances, validity periods and adjustment clauses, as well as the Supplier Management. This action aims to automate and integrate the current controls, reducing operational workload and freeing professionals for jobs that require greater analysis and complexity.
