Abstract: In Brazil, the government created specific rules through the Differentiated Contracting Regime Act (lei do Regime Diferenciado de Contratacao, RDC) as an innovative process to hire the construction works directly linked to the realization of the sports events (2013 Confederations Cup , 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympics and Paralympics) and the infrastructure works necessary to make them feasible. This study discusses the types of company consortia established in order to meet the defined requirements for the procurement of such works. The case study refers to a stretch of Highway construction called Lot 8B on the BR-381/MG, near to the city of Belo Horizonte-MG, for which the procurement was unsuccessful at the end of two bidding processes.
