Productive Development Partnerships: a strategic monitoring proposal

Abstract

It is an experience report on the methodological construction of a strategic monitoring proposal from the Productive Development Partnerships (PDP), which comprises all of the process of establishing partnerships phases and provides elements for structuring a program of evaluating the initiative in order to verify the performance of the partnerships and their impact, bringing together the economic and social aspects. Such proposal integrates methodological procedures with different metrics and information sources (documentary analysis, logic models, inquiry with the actors involved in PDP and multiple case studies) with qualitative and quantitative approaches from a perspective of collective construction. The presented experience, yet to be validated by Unified Health System’s (SUS) governance, aims to offer a business oriented infrastructure intelligence that allows the conversion of data and information into useful knowledge for action, contributing to the success of the initiative, and, thus, to the strengthening of the Economic Industrial Health Complex and the increase of public production of medicines for the SUS.
