Gradjevinski klaster „DUNDJER“, zajedno sa većim brojem evropskih organizacija, učestvuje na evropskom projektu FP7 pod nazivom „OPEN HOUSE“ (7th FP ENV - 2009.3.1.5.2). Nova evropska metodologija u razvojnoj fazi, ima za cilj da razvije i primeni zajedničku transparentnu metodologiju, koja će dopuniti postojeće metodologije za ocenu projektovanja i izgradnje održivih gradjevina koristeći otvoreni pristup i zajedničku tehničku platformu. Metodologija se zasniva na postojećim metodama za ocenu održive gradnje (BREEAM, DGNB, LEED,...), na postojećim Evropskim standardima (ISO TC 59/SC 17, CEN/TC 350), EPBD Ditektivi i njihovim nacionalnim transpozicijama i metodologijama za ocenu održivosti gradnje na medjunarodnom, evropskom i nacionalnom nivou. U ovom radu dat je pregled kriterijuma za ocenu ekonomskog kvaliteta poslovnih zgrada.

Industrial clusters as an exceptional form of self organizing of industry in contemporary conditions, according to our concept of mechanism for improvement of competitiveness in industry represents one of the cranks of such a mechanism (besides the development strategy, industrial policy and quality strategy. This work paper has as a starting point considerations of the issues related to definition, establishment, location, development and role of a cluster in the process of improvement of competitiveness in industry. 

: Klasteri se smatraju za izuzetno prosperitetan način povećanja poslovnih aktivnosti i uspeha malih i srednjih preduzeća u zemljama u tranziciji. Međutim, pitanja životne sredine i održivosti ne smeju biti zanemarena prilikom stvaranja mreže preduzetničkih jedinica. Eko-industrijsko umrežavanje je koncept koji se dobro uklapa u globalno poslovanje klastera i zato zaslužuje dalju pažnju i popularizaciju među preduzetnicima. Simbioza između različitih lokalnih ili regionalnih poslovanja koja su u skladu sa principima očuvanja životne sredine treba da postanu dragocena komponenta modernog razvoja klastera. Ovaj rad nastoji da podigne svest o očuvanju životne sredine i delovanja MSP kroz promociju sa “stanovišta klastera “ u suočavanju sa savremenim izazovima očuvanja životne sredine.

Udruživanje naučno-istraživačkih institucija u doba globalizacije i svetske ekonomske krize, sve više dobija na značaju početkom XXI veka. Time bi se pojednostavila razmena informacija, novih tehnologija i usavršavanje istraživačkog kadra. Radom je obuhvaćen pristup zasnovan na klasterskom povezivanju naučnih organizacija u COST.

Instead of our conclusion on bio-mechanical treatment (BMT) we will cite the opinion from 30. October 2009. of the National Ministry for Environment and Spacial Planning : " We consider this treatment, according to the current regulations and current global experiences, a good way to treat current and future solid communal waste". Explanation: " From the received documentation, attest and references it was concluded: Biological remedy of polluted environment is the most effective and successful procedures, that is largely implemented all over the World, and that uses microorganisms as agents in the chemical processing. The main advantage compared to other remediation processes is that through the waste is decomposed through the metabolism of the microorganisms and this procedure or its products are not hazards to the environment or to humans. After the Bio-remedy process the contaminated material ( communal waste, land, water), does not represent waste any longer and has its environmental and economic value. The material can be used as an remedy for devastated land, it can be returned from where it originated before it was treated and it decontaminates the space ( these are mostly waste lands, landfills, anti-erosive work spaces, etc.) One of the oldest, most effective, and useful ways of recycling is precisely Bio-mechanical treatment of organic waste, which is the number one components of solid communal waste in Serbia. It is based on a natural process, which is important, because it is good to give back to nature at least a part of what was taken.

The goal of each project is to be completed in the shortest possible time with minimal costs. Many studies have found that on average only 40% of started projects finished on time and budgets usually exceed an average of two times the predicted values. Such phenomena have led to greater use of Microsoft Project, who represents one of the most popular software packages used to support project management. This software package is used for planning, monitoring and control of realization of different types of projects, and is one of the easiest and most used software packages for project management. This paper describes the practical use of this software package in the process of dynamic plans, planning different kinds of resources, planning and cost analysis, monitoring and control of the project and, creating different types of reports.

Danas više od polovine stanovnika sveta živi u urbanim oblastima. Gradovi su mesta gde se mogu naći i problemi, ali i rešenja za njih. U vremenu ekonomske krize dobra povezanost u klastere kroz ekonomskih aktivnosti, lokalno takmičenje poput kvaliteta rada i kreativnosti i potreba da za promenom u industriji usluga su snage koje čine ekonomsku održivost urbanih oblast. Ovo bi trebali biti glavni temelji budućeg rasta. Ovaj rad se bazira na analizu sadržaja literature o klasterima u funkciji ekonomske održivost gradova danas.

The main aim of the paper is to identify education quality focused on the need to make profound connection with the business environment with the goal of employability of graduates. The findings suggest that flow of ideas and information with focus on knowledge within the cluster serves as a powerful force for potential change in educational systems where links between practice and theory are firmly grounded and applied as the means to develop appropriate teaching and pedagogical strategies to meet the student’s needs.

One of the beneficial methodologies for growing and developing a level of tourism which is sustainable and enhances the totality of local and regional environments is a multi-stakeholder approach to tourism development. In this paper, we present the case of the “Heritage trails through Dolenjska and Bela krajina in SE Slovenia” by which sustainable rural development takes an integrated approach in terms of start-up, implementation and development and is supported by and benefits from the notion of a core of multiple stakeholders. It is clear that: • Entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial skills, harnessed in a bottom-up model of development, will have a huge impact on rural and agri-tourist micro-economies at a local community level. The effect in driving wealth creation and expanding employment is measurable in a very tangible and transparent way • Furthermore, multi-stakeholder tourism projects benefit the ownership transformation process by forcing public, privateand social ownership agents and enterprises to work together for common benefit. Because of the bottom up approach the measurable value at an enterprise or agency level is also more tangible and obvious • We can also see that by engaging local public agencies, the dimension of environmental planning and protection can be assured. In this way the sustainable nature of tourism and its impact on the local environment can be assessed and given due priority • At the same time, in such integrated projects, individual entrepreneurs begin to comprehend and understand the value of co-operation as well as of competition. A key feature is often the need for small-scale tourism entrepreneurs to develop a promotional mechanism to market their product or service at a wider national and international level. Individually the costs of such an activity are too great for micro-enterprises, but they are possible for groups of enterprises. This evidences how an integrated model enables participants to benefit from the totality and complexity of resources and skills held by all stakeholders Clearly the model we are referring to, as demonstrated in the Case Study utilised in this paper, has a very precise local/regional orientation. The Heritage Trail of Dolenjska & Bela krajina Case Study has a rural base and is profoundly affected by the necessity to attract tourism inputs without damaging the sensitivities of the rural environment. It also has astrong multi-st akeholder approach which in many ways illustrates the impact in EU-funded programmes of the concept of subsidiarity - aiming at seamless connectivity between EU supranational policy and funding, member state objectives in macro-economic harmonisation and stabilities and local micro-economic needs.

Učestala pojava suše poslednjih decenija, sa sve izraženijim negativnim posledicama, nameće potrebu za usko povezivanje i sadejstvo institucija koje u svom programu imaju borbu protiv suše, kako bi se smanjio rizik a time i nepovoljni uticaj u narednom periodu. Kako je suša regionalna pojava, efikasna borba zahteva uniformnost koja se može najlakše postići udruževanjem značajnijih činilaca u upravljanju sušom. Jedno od mogućih rešenja je i klastersko povezivanje institucija vezanih za sušu. U radu je predstavljeno klastersko povezivanje institucija u cilju ublažavanja efekata suše.

Establishing of LEDIB Cluster House Project is a business development project consisting of the small-scale construction works, interior design and staff recruitment. The project management was enabled through application of the basic concept implemented in 6 stages: Project Objective and Description; Identification of the Project Manager and Team; Project Implementation Timeline Planning; Identification of the Required Resources and Finances; Implementation Monitoring and Necessary Interventions and Project Closeout. The basic objective of the Project is the closeout (completion) in the shortest period of time and with the lowest expenses. Planning, monitoring and control of the project implementation rely on the software support of the Microsoft Project – the standard program for project management.

In order to adjust procedures in Serbia to the ones of other European countries, a strategic planning of cluster development in Serbia needs to be performed. There are more than 55 clusters in Serbia. Clusters represent significant tool of sustainable economic development. LEDIB Cluster House, an innovative organization, was formed in Nis in purpose of developing clusters all over South-East Serbia, with the mission to establish cooperation of business community organized into clusters and public and scientific-research sectors. Increase in the number of clusters in Serbia indicates that there is a need to create specific training for associates in the area of cluster development in Serbia. By applying the multidisciplinary approach in training of cluster facilitators, based on cooperation of Universities, business organizations and clusters, and with strong support of public sector, LEDIB Cluster House is contributing to creation of expert assistants – cluster facilitators, who will enable professional development of clusters in Serbia, strengthening thus the SME sector competitiveness through support to innovations.

Contemporary competitiveness depends on productivity but not on its approach to production factors or company size. Productivity lies on a competition of companies, that is, organizations can improve productivity in any branch if use sophisticated methods, advanced technologies and offer unique products and services. Sophistication by which the company competes in certain area is greatly affected by quality of local business environment. Clusters operate on competitiveness of organizations in three ways: first, by increase of productivity of the companies in environment, second, supporting and managing the innovations contributing the productivity increase, and third, enhancing the initiation of the new business enlarging and strengthening the cluster.

Učlanjenjem u Asocijaciju evropskih gradova kulture i nedavnim usvajanjem strateških dokumenata poput Strategije kulturnog razvoja Grada Niša od 2012 do 2015.god. i Lokalnog plana napretka Qualicities, ispoljena je težnja Niša da potencijal kulturno-istorijskog nasleđa sa šireg prostora grada iskoristi za unapređenje ekonomskog, društvenog i kulturnog razvoja. Osim prikaza realnog preseka i razloga za stanje nepokretnih kulturnih dobara Nišavskog regiona, u tekstu je kroz analitički pristup i sintezu iskustava evropskih gradova predstavljen model udruživanja aktera kulturnih industrija sa ciljem zaštite kulturno-istorijske baštine.

Većina proizvođača autokomponenti u Srbiji još uvek nije okončala proces privatizacije, u evropskim okvirima nije konkurentna, a ispunjenost proizvodnih kapaciteta daleko je od nekadašnje. Dobavljačka industrija, pogotovu onaj deo koji još uvek čeka na privatizaciju, suočava se sa problemima koji su nastali u prošlosti. Preduzeća pokušavaju da povećaju proizvodnju i da smanje zavisnost od domaćih proizvođača vozila. Prilagođavanje u međuvremenu znatno promenjenim tržišnim uslovma i zahtevima iziskuje od dobavljača ogromne dodatne napore. Proizvodnjom auto delova i auto opreme u Srbiji bavi se oko 160 registrovanih preduzeća sertifikovanih po ISO standardima oko 35%, godišnim prometom oko 200 Mil Eur i blizu 36.000 zaposlenih. Na osnovu sadašnjeg stanja, srpski proizvođači autodelova i opreme kratkoročno ne mogu računati sa planiranjem proizvodnje. Obzirom na postojeću svetsku ekonomsku krizu koja se najviše odrazila na autoindustriju, dobavljači su primorani da se na stranim tržištima bore za nove kupce svojih proizvoda. Veći aranžmani sa evropskim proizvođačima automobila do sada nisu realizovani, ali se vode pregovori i vrše auditi od strane renomiranih proizvođača, i pojedinačnih TIER 1 dobavljača. Autoklaster Srbije, kao jedan od vodećih klastera u Srbiji, koji funkcioniše u ekonomskom prostoru jedne države, treba da bude integralni deo sveobuhvatne strategije koja vodi ka daljim ekonomskim reformama. Ovakav pristup predviđa da klasteri treba da imaju ograničen životni vek, gubeći svoj značaj kada se Država uključi u svetsko tržište i postigne projektovane makroekonomske parametre.Autoklaster Srbije, takođe, treba da bude značajni razvojni instrument domaće ekonomije - obezbeđujući priliv direktnih stranih investicija, novih tehnologija i potrebnu stranu valutu da bi se omogućile potrebe uvoza za domaću privredu. Stvaranje novih radnih mesta ključno je za države sa visokom stopom neuposlenosti i zato su one spremne da daju veliki broj povlastica kompanijama koje će uposliti lokalno stanovništvo. U slučaju autoindustrije Srbije, Autoklaster Srbije je postao partner saradnik Drzavi-Ministarstvu ekonomije u procesu monitoringa, kvalifikacije i obuke članica, standardizacije kvaliteta proizvodnje i poslovanja, promocije potencijala članica na međunarodnim sajmovima i konferencijama, kooperacije sa međunarodnim asocijacijama GTZ, UNIDO, USAID,... Koliku važnost i značaj u procesu ekonomskog razvoja Srbije Ministarstvo Ekonomije pridaje delatnosti Autoklastera Srbije, pokazuje i to da u svim aktivnostima na promociji i poboljšanju konkurentske pozicije članica klastera, učestvuje sa 50 % svih troškova i aktivnosti .Od početka svog postojanja-2005, Autoklaster Srbije daje značajan doprinos naporima srpskog dobavljačkog sektora autoindustrije, i tek predstoje aktivnosti i zadaci koje nameću i svetski proizvođači automobila, postojeći i potencijalni strani investitori. Tehnička obuka, sertifikacija, zajedničke prezentacije, trening programi, kao i stvaranje radne discipline može biti trajna dobit u nastavku tranzicionih aktivnosti Srbije i restrukturiranja dobavljačkog sektora autoindustrije.

Pet globalnih trendova obeležava savremenu svetsku ekonomiju: reciprocitet (kao glavno načelo međunarodne ekonomske integracije), integracija organizacija u svetsku privredu kroz saveze-alijanse-klastere, reinženjering, velike i radikalne promene u strukturi organizacija, ispitivanje funkcije, uloge i legitimnost menadžmenta, dominacija brzih promena u međunarodnoj, državnoj i poslovnoj politici nad internom ekonomijom. Početak 21 veka je okarakterisan pojavom partnerstva–alijansi-klastera globalnog ekonomskog fenomena, koji ne stavlja u prvi plan pravo kontrole i vlasničku dimenziju, već efekat strategijskog menadžmenta, a strukturi članova daje veći značaj od vlasničkih odnosa. Glavni cilj je pokriti sve tehnologije i tržišta koja su bitna za odredjeni proizvod-uslugu, redukovanja troškova i rizika istraživanja i razvoja novih proizvoda i procesa, izbegavanje uvozne barijere, postizanje ekonomije obima ujedinjenjem snaga u oblasti marketinga, finansija i proizvodnje. U poslednjih pet godina, broj ovakvih saveza raste po stopi od 5 % na godišnjem nivou.

Change is modus operandi in modern times and it will be even more so in the future. RTC is normal having in mind that positions of stakeholders are to be disturbed, but there are numerous other reasons for RTC, but real question is how to deal with it. In this paper we will examine change and RTC happening in Regional Chamber of Economy in Nis, Serbia. These changes were inducted by transition of Serbia and its economy during past decades, but also by legislative reform in this sector. Relevant literature was investigated having in mind similirarities and differences with current examples in order to find out what is change and what is RTC, why does it happen and how to deal with it. As a conclusion,the guide - a practical modelwith check-list for change implementation and dealing with RTC was crafted. This model was developed with respect of existing change models and guides.

Koncept klastera postaje jedna od vodećih ideja razvoja nacionalnih privreda krajem XX veka. Pored značaja lokacije klastera, posebnu pažnju treba obratiti na podizanje svesti o potrebi za poboljšanjem obrazovanja i usavršavanjem kadrova koji bi činili okosnicu razvoja klastera. Zato poseban akcenat u radu je stavljen na značaju obrazovanja i potrebi za njegovim poboljšanjem radi ostvarivanja što bolje sprege klastera i jedinica obrazovnog sistema.

The concept of a cluster facilitator has only been recently elaborated in economic literature, whereas sources of information on cluster facilitators on the territory of Serbia are scarce. Therefore, further in the text the role and the significance of a cluster facilitator will be demonstrated through an empirical aspect of activities and operation of LEDIB Cluster House. That particular aspect implies examples of good practice of cluster facilitators from other countries cooperating with Cluster House in enhancing interaction and exchange of experience. LEDIB Program has invested significant resources in the training of the cluster facilitators and the following text represents a combination of acquired theoretical knowledge and practical experience. The most significant series of cluster facilitators training modules organized by the Cluster House was held in REG X Danish Cluster Academy, so that some of the definitions and conclusions cited in the text have been taken from the experts working at this prominent institution for the cluster development.

Small and medium companies can significantly increase their competitiveness by interconnecting into business clusters, business incubators or technology parks. This interconnection contributes to the growth and development of not only cluster members, but has a regional and a national dimension. Without it, there can be no significant penetration into international markets. Due to all these factors, the issue of encouraging cluster connectivity must be given much greater attention in Serbia. In addition to a simulative economic policy, the process of development of clusters must be based on adequate human potentials where the key place belongs to the management of companies in a cluster and the management of the entire cluster.
