Strategic and operations planning

Help for an office to set its strategic plan and turn it into yearly operations plans.

DAB's technical assistance has included strategic planning for BARMM offices, from a newly established office writing its first three-year plan to offices reviewing their year and planning the next. Its most recent planning workshops were run by its Center of Training and Assessment.

What the Help Covers

Planning help as DAB has given it to BARMM ministries, agencies and offices.

  • Vision, mission and goals

    A workshop in which the office writes its vision, mission, goals and core values, the first aim of DAB's 2025 strategic planning workshops.

  • Plans over several years

    A three-year strategic plan or roadmap that answers the office's own challenges.

  • Yearly operations plans

    Turning the strategic plan into the year's work plan, through annual and operational planning workshops.

  • Review before planning

    A program implementation review or year-end assessment, so the next plan starts from what the past year achieved.

  • Plan documents and procedures

    The technical documents that go with a plan, such as the programmes, plans and long-term procedural standards the Bangsamoro Youth Commission produced with DAB.

  • Trainers in planning

    The Training of Trainers on Strategic Development Planning, held with SUBATRA from 5 to 9 February 2024 in General Santos City for trainers from BARMM ministries, agencies and offices.
