The auction for the New Administrative Center, held on Thursday morning (26) at B3 by the Government of São Paulo, generated savings of more than R$ 2.2 billion for the State. The winning bid came from the MEZ-RZK Novo Centro Consortium, which offered a 9.62% discount on the maximum monthly public payment set at R$ 76.6 million over the 30-year contract period.
The second bidder, a consortium formed by the companies Acciona and Construcap, offered a 5% discount on the monthly payment.
The winning group, formed by the companies Zetta Infraestrutura, M4 Investimentos, Engemat, RZK Empreendimentos Imobiliários, and Iron Propert, will be responsible for executing the project and managing the New Administrative Center over the next 30 years.
The administrative complex has an estimated cost of R$ 6 billion, to be shared between the government and the private sector. It will centralize the headquarters of the state administration and government agencies, currently spread across several areas of the capital, in the Campos Elíseos district, in downtown São Paulo.
The initiative modernizes public management, reduces administrative costs, and strengthens the urban revitalization of the city center, while preserving historic heritage and expanding services for the population. In addition to accommodating more than 22,000 public servants, the new structure will include a theater, auditoriums, multipurpose rooms, and other facilities.
