Resumen
The study examines Results-Based Management through Management Improvement Programs in 72 municipalities in Biobío, Ñuble, and Araucanía (2023-2024). With 137 documents reviewed, consistency, structure, and alignment of objectives and indicators with strategic planning were evaluated. Marked disparities were evident: only 26 % of municipalities showed full alignment, and only 11 % of indicators measure gradual progress. Low-quality indicators predominated, limiting effective monitoring and evaluation. Although PMGs strengthen accountability, their impact is uneven due to structural and resource gaps. It is recommended that indicators and criteria be adapted to local realities, promoting more efficient, equitable, and accountable management to drive sustainable and measurable results.

Resumen
This article proposes an integrated conceptual framework to analyze public innovation processes in local governments across Latin America, articulating three key dimensions: public innovation, state capacities, and governance. Based on a theoretical literature review, the article addresses a central problem: the need to generate effective and context-sensitive institutional responses to complex public challenges in settings marked by structural inequalities and uneven capacities. It examines contemporary models of innovation (linear, continuous, open), distinguishes between pre-existing and innovation-specific state capacities (including ambidextrous capacities), and explores collaborative, multilevel, and smart governance arrangements as enabling environments. The article concludes that a joint analysis of these dimensions offers a useful lens to interpret how public innovations are produced, sustained, or frustrated at the local level, and provides conceptual tools for their comparative study

Resumen
Budgetary opacity is an indication of deficiencies in the integrity of local governance. Nevertheless, in Chile, there is still a lack of empirical studies examining the factors that influence it. Using indicators from the Council for Transparency, Social Observatory, Electoral Service, and National Municipal Information System, this study employs a fixed effects model and a logistic model to identify political, demographic, and political leadership variables associated with levels of budget transparency. The results indicate that municipalities with high poverty levels, lower rates of higher education, and higher debt perform worse, in contrast to those with female mayors, higher levels of higher education, larger populations, and a higher percentage of votes received by the mayor in the previous election.

Resumen
In 2017 the administration of public schools was transferred from municipalities to the Central Government through 21,040 Law creating the Local Services of Public Education (SLEP). Nowadays there is no a study that measures the impact of this public policy over the attainment of schools and students. So, in this work I try to measure the impact using data form National Agency of Quality Education and with the methodologies of propensity score matching and difference in difference (DiD). In general there is a negative impact in the achievement of schools and students due the change in the administration, however, in some cases there is a positive impact.

Resumen
The aim of this article is to define how taxation powers are distributed in the Mexican federal system and to identify the impact of the federal transfer scheme on local development in Oaxaca. Although actions have been promoted to strengthen municipal finances, inequalities remain in the national territory and in the case of Oaxaca’s municipalities, conditions of underdevelopment and poverty persist. Using an econometric probability model, the impact of the federal transfer scheme on local development in Oaxaca is calculated. The results show that federal contributions have a negative impact on municipal development, while participations favor development.

Resumen
Vacant urban land is associated with the expansion of urban areas, the increase in lot prices, and other factors. Through documentary analysis and interviews with political officials and members of technical teams, the research characterizes the situation of this type of land in the cities of the Greater Santa Fe Agglomeration in terms of the number of vacant urban lots, the instruments available to local governments to mobilize it and the challenges in managing it. The findings indicate that the issue is not a priority on government agendas. The only regulatory tool that penalizes its possession is a real estate surcharge, which, being generally low, does not incentivize mobilization. Enforcement procedures are sporadic, and local governments do not create land reserves with lots to deed.

Resumen
This document presents a summary and description of the RTCA 75.01.22:047 as a guide to characterize and classify asphalt binders un-modified, conventional asphalt, asphalt emulsions and cutback asphalt, required to provide the minimum specifications to be used in rehabilitation , reconstruction and construction of roads. This article is addressed mainly to companies and testing laboratories related to the road sector that require determining the quality of materials used in the processes of maintenance, rehabilitation or reconstruction, in addition is a description or interpretation of the results of each test.

Resumen
This document develops a method for comparison and correlation of two methods for testing reinforced concrete prefabricated columns. The main objective of this article is to simplify the quality control methods in this field and bring information on how to extrapolate the results that may be obtained from a simpler testing method as the ASTM C78M, Standard Test Method for Flexural Strength of Concrete (using simple beam with third-point loading) to a method which represents better the condition of loading that often are used in analytical design of this elements, which is the Method for Flexural Strength of Concrete (using cantilevered beam at 0,220 · L and loaded at 0,728 · L). For the investigation 5 producing factories of columns were evaluated, For each factory, were 7 columns were tested with a method and 7 columns with the other method. The experimental result indicates that apparently does not exist significant difference between both methods.

Resumen
The compaction of hot mix asphalt (HMA) in the Superpave® Gyratory Compactor is the developments in the laboratory mixture design. The compaction equipment was designed in order to simulate the densification that occurs on site during construction and in service. Another objective was to measure somehow the “workability” of the mix, said it in other words, how easy or difficult is to compact the asphalt mixture.
Also, it was considered the use of larger size aggregates. Finally, the equipment should be easy enough to use in conducting the quality assurance and control tests. This article summarizes the history, the operation of the equipment, the test method, the results and finally, the conclusions and recommendations based on the experience gathered over the years using this equipment in LanammeUCR.

Resumen
Conductivity and total hardness in ultrapure water samples produced by four combinations of purification water equipment were studied. Production of reference material method chose the group of purification equipment which allow obtaining water samples with minor conductivity and total hardness. Several processes for the certification of the material were performed as well: study of conductivity versus time, study of the effect of filling and package processes, density value assignment, four different temperatures, using variable methods and stability studies in the magnitudes of conductivity and density. Finally results of the certification were reported in the certificate for the certified reference material in density of ultra-pure water batch.
