Phased overview of a new compliance system’s development for good administration in Romanian public institutions

This work presents the phased process through which a practical solution, firmly grounded in theoretical terms, was defined for the concrete challenges to which Romanian public institutions must respond. The objective pursued in this work for defining a new compliance system for good administration applicable to Romanian public institutions, was to provide a viable integrated solution, to meet a multitude of compliance requirements having different sources and legal force, which public institutions are currently implementing using parallel management systems, generating bureaucracy, administrative overload, and limiting the institutional capacity to perform its social function. Deriving benefits from elements specific to the science of law, sociology, management, and even technical sciences, the proposed model is structured into two major components: the elements and rules applicable to the new compliance management system and the good administration requirements to which the new compliance system is called to respond. Conclusions of the testing of the newly proposed compliance system for good administration applicable to Romanian public institutions have pointed out that it is also capable of satisfying the legal requirements applicable to each institution, the requirements of international management standards as well as national and international best practice models. Since both, public and private companies, operate in the same common market and serve the same consumer citizens, a possible interesting approach for the future may be on the assessment of the possibility and opportunity of applying within private entities of the compliance model system for good administration developed in this study.
