Represents a more popularized adaptation of the complete report written as documentation of the benchmarking activity in the project SMArTMAN SME. Uses benchmarking in the SMArTMAN SME project to increase the knowledge about the supply chain management process and to enable the industrial partners to learn from best practice. Identifies other enterprises in Europe and their processes. A set of flow charts portrays what is considered to be a best practice process spanning the areas of procurement and supply chain management. This process has been designed by merging the best elements from each of the benchmarking partners' processes into one generic process. Describes practices observed at the benchmarking partners that seem to be of "best practice" level and which were not suited for inclusion in the flow charts.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to map and examine the best HIV management practices available in scientific publications in the health field. A systematic literature review was carried out through scoping review, on the basis of PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, CINAHL, LILACS, and CAPES Thesis and Dissertations Catalog, from 2009 to July 2020. From the 427 identified studies, 19 were included, and although it does not explain a concept of best practice, they present HIV management practices expressed as a best practice through the evaluation of strategies, tools, health services, health programs, interventions, and actions that contributed to an improvement of a given health condition in HIV prevention and care. The practices identified in the studies with a 'best practice' are justified by the analysis of the evaluation aspects, which expressed positive changes, contributing to improvements in HIV management practices. It is believed that these findings can support the construction of public policies in different scenarios and the establishment of health practices that seek to improve the quality of actions aimed at managing HIV.

"In order to effectively and consistently provide services to citizens, local governments have had to come up with creative ways for offering services demanded by their citizens. One popular approach became the creation of volunteer programs as local governments became increasingly reliant on volunteers. Volunteers are one means by which local governments help to increase meaningful engagement with citizens and help meet the increasing needs for public services with limited resources. On a broader scale, volunteers in public agencies provide a variety of services to fill gaps in creating and sustaining collective societal goods that otherwise might have been limited due to fiscal stress on local governments or eliminated. Public Sector Volunteer Management: Best Practices and Challenges adds to the understanding of how management practices may affect retention of volunteers. It provides an opportunity to add much-needed data to any discussion concerning volunteering at the local government level from the perspective of volunteer coordinators and aims to provide in-depth research on local government volunteer management practices. This book focuses on best practices identified as necessary for successful volunteer management in the public sector, specifically in a local government setting, making it a valuable text for researchers, academics, and students in the fields of public and non-profit management, leadership, and human resource management"--
