Multas por Incumprimento Contratual e Falta de Conformidade com SLAs

3 verified sources

Definition

Contracts for maintenance services often include performance guarantees (SLAs) with financial penalties for non-compliance. Search results stress 'Implementar sistemas de monitoramento e avaliação contínuos'[1]. Manual audits cannot catch real-time SLA breaches. Additionally, services must be invoiced via NF-e with precise descriptions; manual invoice generation causes rejections by SEFAZ, requiring re-submission and incurring system penalties.

Key Findings

  • Financial Impact: Contractual penalties: 1-5% of monthly service fees (R$1,000-10,000 per month on typical contracts); NF-e rejection fines: R$100-500 per rejected invoice (state-dependent)
  • Frequency: Monthly SLA reviews often missed; NF-e rejections occur 5-10% of service invoices due to description errors
  • Root Cause: Manual performance metric collection lacks real-time oversight; no automated SLA dashboard; NF-e generated manually without validation against SEFAZ technical specifications

Why This Matters

Pitch: Brazilian machinery companies face 2-5% of contract value in penalties annually due to unmonitored SLA breaches and NF-e rejections. Real-time contract compliance tracking eliminates manual verification gaps and automates invoice validation.
