Click to expand guidance.

This stage is unlike the programme and project stages as it does not include sequential milestones as the events are cyclical.

On a quarterly basis there should be a formal review of the events affecting the environment in which the organisation is operating and to check for new or evolving strategic attitudes, initiatives and markets that the organisation may need to engage with in the future.
