| Resumen: | One of the limiting factors in the implementation of water resource management is the absence of tools that help water programs evaluate processes and progress. This is because, until now, the indicators that have been developed have not addressed specific local characteristics and issues. Therefore, in this research, a set of indicators has been proposed, with the purpose of developing a management index for urban public water supply, which will consider the Drinking Water and Sewer System of León (SAPAL), in the Mexican state of Guanajuato, as case study. This index will be useful to measure progress toward sustainable development, monitor the impact of public policies, and foster citizen participation. In order to propose a methodology that aligns with the changing environments, where proper decision-making is key to the current water management requirements, the combination of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Fuzzy Logic (FL) methodologies will be helpful for proper decision-making. All this will foster a paradigm shift towards appropriate water management actions that allow for the conditions and availability of human and natural resources, which the municipality has control of, for a long-term improvement that guarantees the well-being of the population. |
