This study used a consumer survey to identify resources and services that are important to farmers’ market (FM) shoppers. The questionnaire was distributed onsite in six FMs in Tennessee, and a total of 506 FM shoppers responded. The most important resources and services in terms of a shopper’s decision to visit a FM are identified as supporting local food, quality, friendly, and diverse vendors, and food origin. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) reveals that convenience and close to home are more important to women; price is more important to younger and lower-income shoppers, while quality, convenience, interaction with farmers/producers, and food origin are more important to older shoppers. Content analysis indicated that FM shoppers were impressed with FM atmosphere and liked the quality, variety, and convenience provided by FMs, but disliked not having clear information such as product labels and websites.

At the present stage of development, organizations play a leading role in society. Organizations are multifaceted and widely represented in various forms, such as enterprises, non-profit organizations, public authorities, associations of citizens or communities, international legal, economic, social institutions, police or security agencies, scientific societies, and so on. Most organizations today operate in a competitive environment that requires them to constantly develop and improve. The winner is the one who acts prudently and effectively. In this aspect, the strategic management of the organization’s development is critical to its existence in a competitive environment in the long run. The article substantiates the difference between the dynamics of organizational development of pre-trial investigation bodies from business organizations due to the lack of competition as the main determinant of such development. A comparative analysis of the definitions of strategy, strategic management and organizational development is presented in order to identify the specifics of strategic management of organizational development. Through a systematic analysis of regulations that define the main tasks of pre-trial investigation bodies, the strategic goals of such bodies are identified, which should be taken into account when developing their development strategy. On the basis of the presented material the author’s definition of the concept of strategic management of development of bodies of pre-judicial investigation is offered. Based on the analysis, the European Foundation for Quality Management and 7s McKinsey’s contemporary evaluation models identify the main trends in organizational development, which in the future should be taken into account by pre-trial investigation bodies when developing their own development strategies. Conclusions are made about the prospects of further research in this direction.

Strategic management of development is crucial to the organization’s existence in a competitive environment in the long run. Continuous development enables organizations to adapt to the changes that are taking place in society, as well as to identify and develop their own strengths. Among organizations, there are those that do not operate in a competitive environment, but those are relied upon in view of important social tasks. In particular, such organizations include pre-trial investigation bodies, which are designed to ensure security along with law-and-order in society. The lack of a competitive environment for such bodies leads to the weakening of external factors – determinants of institutional development, but in terms of tasks and the role of law enforcement bodies in society, the constant development of law enforcement bodies is no less important than for business organizations. In modern management, sufficient attention is paid to the strategic administration of the development of enterprises, but the issues of strategic management of the development of pre-trial investigation bodies, taking into account the specifics of the tasks of such organizations, as well as their internal and external environment, are not paid any attention in the domestic literature, and it is paid fragmentary attention in the literature abroad. The article provides a theoretical study of epistemology of the concepts of «strategy», «strategic management» and «organizational development» in order to identify the specifics of strategic management of the development of organizations. By analyzing the normative legal acts that determine the main tasks of pre-trial investigation bodies, the strategic goals of such bodies are identified, which should be taken into account during the elaboration of their development strategy. On the basis of the presented material, the authors’ own definition of «strategic management of the development of pre-trial investigation bodies» is proposed.
