The autonomous decentralized governments of the cantons of Ecuador, as established by the Organic Code of Territorial Organization, Autonomy and Decentralization, are able to generate their own territorial policies. Public administrators, depending on compliance with the goals of economic reactivation and the internal market, must manage development programs in terms of growth in production and microenterprises. Public policies are an instrument that is used in the administrations of public bodies to achieve economic and social growth. The present research, carried out in the canton Jipijapa of Manabí Province in the Republic of Ecuador, allowed to determine the importance and impact that the public policies have in the development of the small and medium enterprises through the analytical descriptive method with a bibliographical revision from the theoretical approach. It identifies some of the existing public policies of a productive nature and their relationship with small and medium-sized enterprises. Their applicability and evaluation were analyzed with the efficiency, effectiveness and effectiveness indicators, a diagnosis was made applying surveys in microenterprises identified as object of study, and interviews with the political authorities of each decentralized autonomous government that make up or are part of the Jipijapa canton. To validate the results, statistical software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 22.0 was used. The existence of gaps that prevent the correct application of public policies and development programs was determined.
