Resum:
This thesis aims to provide an overview of the situation, level of implementation and results of administrative modernization and instruments of New Public Management in major local municipalities of Camp de Tarragona (Spain), answering the question of whether this new model of management actually contributes to improved policy performance and government, and in what circumstances these improvements occur. The contrast of the hypotheses -1st) the application of new public quality management model and processes offers better results, and 2nd) the level of internal customer satisfaction after the implementation of the new model is higher- takes place through qualitative techniques -depth interviews and participant observation-, applied both in the general investigation of the aforementioned municipalities and in depth study of the City of Salou.
