Toward an urban transport sustainability index: an European comparison
2011
Introduction The aim of paper is to cluster policies of sustainable mobility in order to define an essential set of specific Transport Performance Indicators (TPI). TPIs are standardized measures suitable for analysis in order to appraise the feasibility of a transport policy or an infrastructural project. Data collection of TPIs is a crucial phase, but data detection and monitoring are not standardized at the city level. Thus, there is no a standard for data collection and storing, this aspect makes much difficult to compare different city contexts. This issue is critical and bounds the analysis of built scenarios. A standardized set of transport performance indicators becomes, hence, esse…
Cooperatives' performance relative to investor-owned firms: a non-distorted approach for the wine sector
2021
PurposeThis study aims to investigate whether significant performance differences between cooperatives and investor-owned firms (IOFs) may exist.Design/methodology/approachBased on data from a sample of Italian wine firms for the period from 2009 to 2018, an adjusted measure of performance called earnings before interests, taxes, depreciations and amortizations gross the raw materials cost was adopted to consider the different objectives of cooperatives relative to those of IOFs.FindingsEmpirical evidence shows that in the context under analysis, cooperatives have performed better than IOFs.Originality/valueDespite the theoretical literature suggesting that the cooperative form of organizat…
Izpildes pamatrādītāju ieviešana Datu apstrādes komandā
2015
Mūsdienās uzņēmumi un organizācijas aizvien vairāk sāk domāt par savu darbinieku zināšanu kapitālu, darba kvalitāti un attiecīgi darbinieku uzdevumu izpildi. Tādēļ maģistra darba autore ir izvēlējusies savā darbā apskatīt izpildes pamatrādītāju sistēmas un iespējas to ieviešanai. Maģistra darba mērķis ir, pamatojoties uz uzņēmuma un datu apstrādes komandas procesu analīzi, identificēt iespējamos izpildes pamatrādītājus par visas komandas darbību un izstrādāt priekšlikumus to ieviešanai. Maģistra darba mērķa sasniegšanai tika izvirzīti sekojoši uzdevumi: •iepazīties ar izpildes pamatrādītāju pieejām un sistēmām, lai spētu izprast to nozīmīgumu un būtību; •novērtēt pamatdatu pārvaldīšanas noz…
L'articulation des usages diagnostique et interactif d'un seul et même système de contrôle de gestion : le cas d'un système d'indicateurs environneme…
2013
With the conceptual framework of control levers of Simons (1995), this article shows how to coordinate diagnostic and interactive uses of the same "management control system" (in this case a system of environmental indicators) for the deployment and the emergence of new strategies. In contrast to the literature, we propose an articulation "in parallel" of levers of control as alternative to sliding levers of control. These results are obtained from a case study in a French wine and spirits subject to large strategic environmental uncertainties.
