These results are monthly estimated by IBGE through a partnership with CAIXA – Caixa Econômica Federal, based on SINAPI – National System of Survey of Costs and Indexes of Civil Construction. SINAPI, created in 1969, has the purpose of producing information on costs and indexes in a systematic way and with a national coverage, in order to elaborate and evaluate budgets as well as monitor costs. In 2002, the National Congress approved, by means of the Budgetary Directive Law (LDO), the adoption of SINAPI as a reference for the definition of costs in public constructions. |
