Given the complex nature of cities, it is argued that the promotion of tourist destinations requires an integrated management approach based on governance principles and strategic vision of competitiveness. Despite the importance of DMS on the competitiveness of small and medium tourism enterprises (SMTEs), SMTEs’ representation in DMS is low and problematic. The discussion in the article centers on local challenges, a review of the literature, and an assessment of emerging trends, needs, and opportunities for Reggio Calabria Tourism. The emergence of destination management systems (DMSs) as "info-structures" enables destinations to disseminate comprehensive information about resources and services of destinations and local tourism products as well as to facilitate the planning, management, and marketing of regions as tourism entities or brands. This research provides a suggestion to create a local Destination Management Systems (DMS) to provide benefits to both consumer and the tourism industry in the Reggio Calabria metropolitan city. This article explores success criteria for DMSs. It analyzes the needs and wants of stakeholders and thus provides guidance for the development and assessment of DMSs

Tools and Methods for the Planning of Public Works. A Regional Centre for Control Cost of Public Works

Abstract The squandering of financial resources invested for the construction of public works has become an increasingly important issue during the continuing economic crisis and the slow recovery in the construction sector. In recent years it has taken cognizance of this critical and unsustainable financial weight that results in considerable economic and social repercussions. In addition to the corruption that require repressive intervention, there are methodological shortcomings in estimated economics, found both in the sector regulations, and in university courses. The work in this area, shows that one of the main problems arises at the programming phase of the works, when the erroneous assessment of the investment costs is reflected throughout the realization of the same. This paper is a summary of how scientific research into economic estimates may provide tools and identify shared methodologies, effective for the control of expenditure in the public works sector from the outset of the planning stage
