The risk control system implemented in ANCP-NAPP comprises the following dimensions:
- Organic control, which is the result of the segregation of duties and competencies between the Board of Directors and the Statutory Auditor;
- Management rules and procedures that, in accordance with the legal provisions and corporate governance best practices, are disclosed and made compulsory to all employees;
- Delegation and sub delegation of competencies to each member of the Board and to those responsible for each organic unit;
- Control system of contract awards and payments to suppliers which is centralized on the Board of Directors;
- Several management tools and documents set the annual objectives for the Board of Directors and ANCP-NAPP’s organic units, formalized through the signing of a Management Contract with the State. Monthly Plans and Budgets are produced internally. A quarterly Budget Implementation Report is sent to the Directorate General for Treasury and Finance, General Inspectorate of Finance, Secretary of State for Treasury and Finance (SETF) and the Statutory Auditor;
- The Code of Conduct reflects the principles and values that govern ANCP-NAPP and its staff’s conduct in order to prevent conflicts of interest and corruption;
- Transparency and timely disclosure of information regarding ANCP-NAPP’s activities, namely through the State-Owned Companies website (www.dgtf.pt/sector-empresarial-do-estado-see) and ANCP-NAPP’s website (www.ancp.gov.pt);
- Permanent monitoring of the information systems’ security defined by the Integrated Information Systems’ Policy in force in ANCP-NAPP;
- Biometric Control access to ANCP premises;
- Document Management System which aims at dematerializing the ANCP-NAPP’s internal processes, assuring control and centralization of all documentation.
