Abstract
Evaluation has been the last piece to be incorporated into the administrative apparatus of modern institutions and as such it will need some time and certain efforts to accommodate itself within the other pieces of the advanced administrative process: approach / organization / direction-execution / supervision-control / evaluation. Guillermo Christy (4), in his predoctoral dissertation of the Graduate Division of the Higher School of Commerce and Administration of the National Polytechnic Institute, proposed some measures to standardize the steps to carry out the evaluation and that include: diagnosis, measurement, analysis, valuation or estimation, and reflection, estimation and opinion, referred to administrative control, planning, organization, direction, as well as in decision making, communications, and coordination. He concluded with the evaluation of certain administrative functions of a financial, productive and commercial nature.
