Abstract

The work I present arises within the framework of a much broader project currently underway, which is the Program for the Improvement of Strategic Management and Productivity of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Bolivia, through Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), including the implementation of the Balanced Scorecard, Process Improvement, and the application of Business Process Management (BPM).
For this, based on a brief introduction to the BSC, grounded in the theoretical frameworks of its pioneers Kaplan and Norton, we reflect on its evolution from the traditional Scorecard (SC) and try to outline the fundamental differences which, in my opinion, can be significant, with the goal of contrasting the criticisms that have arisen from different perspectives questioning the versatility of this model in the management of socio-economic units.
