Indicators for LPS effective functioning measurement

rozdział z: Functioning of the Local Production Systems in Bulgaria, Poland and Russia. Theoretical and conomic policy issues, ed. A. NowakowskaIn the present work, the authors, using the complex approach, consider the efficiency of the local production systems (LPS) functioning in the context of the statement, that the traditional approach in evaluating the effectiveness is not only a carrier of unduly restricted interpretation of the factors that affect it, but also affects the relationships between them. This significantly distorts the reality and reduces the quality of the managerial decisions taken. In order to overcome the limited capacity of the traditional approach for LPS effective functioning assessment, a system of criteria for evaluating their effective functioning is proposed, combined with indicators for effectiveness measurement.Monograph financed under a contract of execution of the international scientific project within 7th Framework Programme of the European Union, co-financed by Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education (title: Functioning of the Local Production Systems in the Conditions of Economic Crisis (Comparative Analysis and Benchmarking for the EU and Beyond”)) Monografia sfinansowana w oparciu o umowę o wykonanie projektu międzynarodowego w ramach 7.
