This Operation is known as Lava Jato and had its ostensive phase started in 2014, when, through telephone monitoring of the conversations of the money changer Carlos Habib Chater, it was possible to identify several criminal organizations led by money changers and related to each other. In this sense, the investigation sought to analyze the impacts and the procedural form of the plea bargain in the proceedings initiated from the investigations carried out by Lava Jato, understanding the minutiae in relation to the plea bargain in the investigations on corruption in Brazil. The problem revolves around the following question: In what way has the institute of the prize-winning complaint contributed to the investigative process of crimes of corruption and money laundering, within the scope of Operation Lava Jato? The methodology used in this work is bibliographic research. It is possible to perceive that even in the face of criticism, for or against, the use of award-winning agreements, when analyzing the results obtained, until now, it is observed that this institute has been of great value in the dismantling of the criminal organizations involved, the recovery of the financial asset to the Brazilian public coffers and the continuity of the investigative process of Operation Lava Jato.
