Logistic parameters encompassed the manpower and personnel of different sub sectors of the department; as well as the available space and facilities of each. Data collection involved the use of 35 questionnaires with 460 criteria. The final score was obtained as the average of all scores and interpreted according to GOURMAN CLASSIFICATION.Results.

Therapeutic goals and sanitary objectives ranked as "more than satisfactory" and "area of strength" with 3.2 and 4.16 pts, respectively. Appraisal of research objectives and teaching achievement placed the department in the "more than satisfactory" category with 3.2 & 3.52 pts., respectively. Organizational ranking and logistic parameters earned 3.07 and 3.6 pts., respectively and were appraised as "more than satisfactory".Conclusion. Analysis of the results placed the SUMS Department of Pediatrics in the "more than satisfactory" class of the Gourman classification; indicating an over ally desirable modus operandi for the department.
