Abstract:
This paper investigates the development of institutional structures. It focuses on how the institutions manage the decision-making processes. For this study, the evaluation instruments are the base to modernize the institutional instruments according to the policy demand. To achieve this, the study is based in theoretical concepts developed through a methodology for the evaluation of the institutional structures in transports. The main objective of the methodology is to understand the current abilities of the structure of an organization and compare it with the desired outcomes by society in order to identify gaps. According to this process, a case study of the Ministry of Transport in Colombia is developed to measure the effectiveness of this methodology. In summary, this paper is focused in the selection of an objective method that can do the evaluation guided by the outcomes desired by the society from that organization
