Diagnóstico de la implementación de la política de gestión de la información estadística (MIPG) en la alcaldía de Girón

Abstract

This article investigates the current status of the implementation of the Statistical Information Management Policy (MIPG) in the Mayor's Office of Girón, Santander, Colombia. The MIPG is a national government management system that seeks to improve the performance and transparency of local entities by using reliable and timely information. The article analyzes public officials' knowledge of the MIPG, the results of the FURAG (Single Form for Reporting and Management Progress), and the competencies of the implementation team. It identifies a broad knowledge of the Model, but finds limited operational development and a low score in the evaluation of the information and communication dimension. The article presents the results of the documentary verification of the research and the tabulated information from the dichotomous survey designed for the academic exercise. It also highlights the competence of the sample census, the knowledge and specific management of a series of technical elements necessary for implementation with a low level of application and the lack of an action plan, together with the lack of an implementation guide that could provide unrestricted compliance with the legal and regulatory requirements of the Model. Finally, it was recommended to generate strategies using the great capacity of human resources to operationalize the implementation of the statistical information management policy, based on a knowledge transfer process framed within the transversality of management and the general commitment of the Municipal Administration staff.
