Company Performance in the RDAP: What Do the Numbers Reveal?

By Alexsandro Evangelista and Cristiane Rodrigues, from the Economic Consulting & Projects team.

In the process of monitoring projects benefiting from SUFRAMA incentives, the RDAP is not only used to verify compliance with the Basic Production Process (PPB). It also evaluates the company’s performance in relation to the commitments established in the approved technical and economic project.

What are these indicators?

According to Resolution No. 205/2021 and Ordinance No. 1,398/2024, data related to labor, revenue, social benefits, investments in fixed assets, human resources training, and profit reinvestment in the region are analyzed and compared against the targets originally defined in the project.

How are they verified?

The information declared in the RDAP must be supported by documentation. Examples of required documents include:

• FGTS payment guide (GFD) to verify labor data; and

  
  

• Balance sheet or trial balance to confirm revenue, investments, and reinvestments.

  
  

Deviations must be justified

If any indicator falls below 50% of the target established in the original project, the company is required to provide a technical or economic justification. The absence of justification or supporting documentation may negatively impact the issuance of the PAP and lead to the RDAP’s disapproval.

This is the first article in our series on RDAP indicators. In the next editions, we will address each indicator individually, explaining how SUFRAMA interprets and evaluates them.
