Summary:This article, which aims analyzing the strategic management system in the local public administration, consists of three research directions. First, there is an outline of the main aspects which characterize organizational management and strategic planning, and afterwards we sketched the most important elements of the local public administration in Romania, including various planning methods which have been used at this level. The second direction, is the theoretical presentation of the Balanced Scorecard instrument as a method of strategic planning. In the first two sections of this article, the presentation is a theoretical one, based on the analysis of social documents (legislation, books, articles). The fourth direction is an empirical one, and it presents the methodology used for institutional assessment and strategic planning in the Zalău City Hall, by using the Balanced Scorecard instrument. At the end of this article there is an emphasis on the main action channels assumed by the City Hall.
