The public transport concession process in Campinas has faced legal and administrative challenges. Following a decision by the State Court of Auditors (TCE-SP) to annul a previous bidding stage and auction due to an insufficient proposal submission timeframe, the City Hall planned to republish the bidding notice in October with a new auction expected in December.

In a related development, the Municipal Development Company of Campinas (Emdec) concluded an inquiry into former director Ricardo Ferraro Geciauskas. The investigation was prompted by his presence at Smile Transportes, a company involved in the transport bidding process. While the commission found no evidence of participation in the bidding, Emdec opted not to reinstate him to his position.
