Resumo: The theme regarding administrative efficiency is relevant due the impact that public procurement has over the government spending vis-à-vis the limited amount of budget and the public needs as to maintain the government machine running, implement public policies and provide services to citizens. Achieve efficiency is simultaneously a duty and a challenge for the government, given the difficulties and constraints imposed by the external and internal environment. Considering this scenario, a qualitative research was carried out through a case study on the experience of the Public Spending Observatory of the Comptroller General of Brazil (CGU), in order to analyze its contribution to the efficiency in public procurement within the federal government. The theoretical framework included the theories of bureaucracy, due to the prevalence of the Weberian bureaucratic model in organizational structure and functioning of public administration, with its focus on procedural efficiency, and the ideas and proposals of managerial movements, in special the NPM, with its focus on results-based efficiency. In terms of methodology, in addition to literature review, the research involved the analysis of primary and secondary data, non-participant observation and semi-structured interviews with actors occupying strategic positions in the CGU. The final results of the research lead to the conclusion that the Public Spending Observatory can indeed contribute to the improvement of efficiency in public procurement, although it is done in a subsidiary basis. Besides that, the functioning of Public Spending Observatory is restricted by the external limits expressed by the political, regulatory and institutional constraints of environment in which it operates, and internal, arising from the apparent under-utilization of its potential due to the organizational context of the CGU. As a suggestion for future research, it would be important to conduct studies on the internal culture of the CGU and its effect on the functioning of the organization as a whole and find the impact of Public Spending Observatory on the federal agencies, trying to identify positive aspects, weaknesses and points for improvement.
