| Sumario: | This document analyzes some strategies based on the Supply Management Model for the supply of drinking water to the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area. To do this, the behavior of variables related to policies focused on supply management is examined, such as the design of projects and construction of hydraulic infrastructure by official institutions and based on the investments made, an analysis method is established to determine the impact of the sunken cost generated as a result of not making use of the infrastructure works already built. As part of the water management model based on demand, some strategies for the efficient use of this resource are integrated, through alternatives of water-saving technologies to be implemented in the field of domestic use.I t is concluded that water management models historically in Mexico and particularly in the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area (ZMG) have been using water resources associated with supply policies where the institutional argument has been based on the fact that to satisfy the growing demand for water due to the constant population growth, the construction of new supply sources is essential, without taking into account other alternative solutions. |
