Abstract

This graduating research paper has as its main objective to make a Strategic Planning Model for the Parish Santiago de Calpi – Decentralized Autonomous Government (DAG) which belongs to the Canton of Riobamba, Chimborazo Province during the 2015 – 2019 working period in order to improve efficiency on administrative management. At the moment the fact that they lack such model generates delay when concluding works and constant budget adjustments. All this entails resource waste and population dissatisfaction. By applying surveys and interviews to the directors, human resources staff at DAG, and some parish citizens, the necessary information was gathered to perform the SWOT analysis; then, it was plausible to study the current process development in this institution. The results obtained helped in the development of the strategic plan. The point is to confer a simple, but useful tool in which the current situation of the Parish is detailed as well as reachable and measurable strategic objectives. As a result, it was determined that because of the lack of a strategic plan, the DAG members tend to plan projects which have not been considered in the Annual Operating Plan of the Institution. This affects resource optimization and timely conclusion of works. Therefore, it is recommended to consider the immediate implementation of the strategic plan since it will allow the correct decision making to benefit the whole Parish.
