1.Develop a draft Operational Plan

Review the scenario information and the Strategic Plan to identify all the actions that will need to be completed to achieve the College's objectives and be documented in an Operational Plan.

Use the Operational Plan Template to guide your work.

As a minimum, your Operational Plan must address:

Renting of suitable commercial properties

Staffing requirements

Fitting out of the campus

Equipment requirements

Marketing requirements

Research and analyse each of the above resource requirements associated with the identification and establishment of the two new campuses. This must include:

Sources of information for commercial properties

Staffing requirements and recruitment options

Fitting out requirements

Equipment requirements

Potential suppliers

Marketing requirements.

Where you identify sources of information with regard to procuring resources, make sure that you make notes on these for inclusion in your Operational Plan.

Ensure that all of the resources are clearly documented in your Operational Plan, including information sources relating to resources specified.

You need to include timelines and key performance indicators for all required actions, including how often these will be measured in order to assess progress.
