📋 Tender Overview
The National Secretariat for Environmental Sanitation of the Ministry of Cities began, this Monday (4/5), the series of live broadcasts on the data collection cycle of the National Basic Sanitation Information System (Sinisa) for 2026. The first topic was the Water Supply module and included presentations to explain to service providers and holders about sending information to the platform.
During the broadcast, the public was presented with the step-by-step process for collection, with details on the opening period, access to the system and module, the operation of Sinisa, registration in the provider area and reports, as well as financial, technical and balance sheet forms.
Holding this cycle of meetings is an important step towards strengthening an agenda that is central to the countrys development. There is no effective public policy without quality information. It is the information that allows us to understand the reality of territories, identify inequalities, define priorities and guide the allocation of resources. Sinisa is not only our database, but it is a state tool that supports the planning, monitoring and evaluation of our public policies, said the national secretary of Environmental Sanitation, Marcio Leao Coelho.
The broadcasts, which are open to the public and live on the Ministry of Cities YouTube channel, aim to answer questions from service holders, providers and responsible entities. The idea is to qualify the data entered into the system, increasing the reliability of the information and supporting decision-making by public authorities.
The production of this information requires organization, responsibility and institutional commitment. The data reported reflects the reality of the services provided and supports analyzes that directly impact the planning of the public authorities actions. Therefore, it is essential that those responsible for sending the information organize themselves in advance, mobilize their teams and treat this process as an integral part of the management of services. The quality of the data begins at the origin, at the time of filling it out, added the secretary.

The Sinisa Water Supply module brings together the main information about the resource in Brazil. The indicator panel displays service numbers for the rural, urban population and households, in addition to presenting measurement results, consumption, distribution losses, operating income and expenses. All data can be segmented by region, state, municipality or the entire country.
We have to see Sinisa as a tool not for the Ministry of Cities, but for municipal, state and provider management, which is why participation is important. Today we are specifically talking about the water module, but although it is a process aimed at providers and service holders, it is important that the population participates to understand how it works and can participate in public policies, reinforced the general coordinator of information management at the National Secretariat for Environmental Sanitation, Marco Tourinho.
In addition to the Water Supply module, the program continues on Tuesday (5/5), with a presentation on Sanitary Sewage, at 10am, on the Ministry of Cities YouTube. This week there will also be broadcasts on municipal management (6/5), urban solid waste (7/5) and urban drainage (8/5).
