It synthesizes documented theory and research in strategic planning, CSFs, and future scenarios. It proposes an enhanced, integrated information framework for strategic planning that can help organizations understand the broad range of interrelated elements that influence strategy development. Finally, the report provides insights and lessons regarding the value and limitations of the integrated strategic planning framework and suggestions for future work.
