This deployment towards the regions implies having infrastructure plus human, locative, technological, and logistical resources to secure assistance to citizens in a permanent, transparent, and inclusive manner, thus becoming the first link to guarantee their right of access to information and citizen participation.

Attention to citizens in the management of the right of petition (PQRS)

It consists in guaranteeing a timely and substantive response to all Petitions, Complaints, Claims and Suggestions - PQRS submitted to Ecopetrol. To this end, the procedure for managing Ecopetrol's right of petition, the conditions, competences, and other substantial and instrumental management and control aspects have been established.  This management is assessed with the indicator of timely assistance to citizens.

To ensure timely attention to PQRS, there is a process and a network of approximately 220 solvers distributed in all areas of the company. This process is governed by the procedure for managing Ecopetrol's right of petition, which sets out the general conditions, the competence respond, the stages of the process, and all other substantial and instrumental aspects that guarantee timely and adequate attention of citizen petitions.

In the last 5 years, approximately 198,452 citizen requests have been addressed. The indicator of timely attention to citizens in this period averaged 99.97% and 99.94% in 2022.

Ecopetrol has mechanisms and channels to properly receive and manage Petitions, Complaints, Claims and Suggestions - PQRS, as well as acknowledgment from the stakeholders, ensuring a timely and in-depth response.

Similarly, participation scenarios are created that allow stakeholders to be informed about the activities performed by the company and to learn about their perception so as to build a close relationship between them and the organization.

Through the management and monitoring of the PQRS and requirements derived from said interaction between Ecopetrol and its stakeholders, data is obtained that is then structured, analyzed, and converted into valuable information for decision-making purposes. This information allows Ecopetrol to identify opportunities for improvement in the organization's processes and build alternative solutions of dissatisfaction situations.

The OPC's operational deployment model considers six care modalities through face-to-face and non-face-to-face channels, as follows:

ECO Zone

Experience Center for the interaction of the company with its stakeholders (Meeting, Knowledge, and Opportunities), through the pedagogy of knowledge and participatory science. Currently, there is an ECO Zone in the municipality of Puerto Wilches.

Attention Office

Physical space for on-site and permanent attention that facilitate management of the right of petition and access to information on the operation and management of the company.  These can be found in the municipalities that are listed in the regional presence.

Fixed point of attention

Conditioning of a non-permanent space within Ecopetrol facilities for systematic attention to the citizens of a certain locality. (weekly).

Also, there are Correspondence Offices, currently in the city of Bogotá, operating in the Caxdac Building, Calle 35 No. 7-29 piso 1.

Mobile point

Rotating service points for citizens, implemented outside Ecopetrol facilities in different locations of a territory. (biweekly)

Brigade

OPC days at specific places and groups, usually in cooperation with other company areas. (By demand).

It consists in promoting the development of opportunities intended for engagement with stakeholders, which enable attention, dialogue, accountability, and strengthening of citizen competences by creating synergies with the institutionality and the different mission and support areas of the company. 

These scenarios promote knowledge about the industry, the company, and its management. Themes relevant for relationships are communicated.  Stakeholders needs and expectations are listened to.  Operational outcomes and projections are disclosed, and citizen competencies are strengthened.

To this end, the OPC structured the following portfolio:


Each strategic line of the participation scenarios has specific products that have a thematic, methodological, and logistical development requiring technical and budgetary resources for their implementation. Within the framework of these lines, the OPC has consolidated experience and methodologies for the development of each of the activities proposed in the portfolio.

The Pedagogy and Attention to stakeholders’ lines are highlighted as inherent in the management of the OPC based on citizen service and access to information. In turn, the Dialogue and Accountability line is developed by demand and in collaboration with other areas of the company, based on transparency and social control. Based on the portfolio and considering the needs, particularities, and dynamics of each region, each year a strategic plan of participation scenarios is built, in line with Ecopetrol's relationships plan in the territories. Detailed below are the programs conducted in 2022, showing the place of execution and the participants:

Included below are some examples of progress achieved in the consolidation of such scenarios: 

ECO Zone:

The most recent strategy that seeks to promote and strengthen the participation and dialogue commitment. It contributes to the strengthening of relationships of trust and to reducing the uncertainty of the stakeholders regarding the management and operations of the company through the implementation of settings, methodologies and tools for encounters, learning, dialogue, and participation, relying on information and communication technologies - ICT. 

In 2020, the OPC designed the model (strategic and operational); in 2021, the pilot was implemented in the Middle Magdalena; in 2022, the implementation began in Orinoquía and from now on, the plan is to replicate the model in all the regions of influence of Ecopetrol, according to the baseline.


In the opening for access to information and care at the first level, participatory science and experiential learning are key elements in this strategy.

Building citizenship:

Training program to strengthen skills for citizen participation, as a tool for assertive dialogue, in a culture of peace and coexistence.

  • Promote citizen participation within the framework of democracy and a culture of peace.
  • Identify the functions of the Government and the institutional framework to exercise citizen participation.
  • Appropriate the elements of citizen control with emphasis on citizen oversight.
