Applying the NSGIC Guidelines Applied Geographics, Inc. 2010 Strategic and Business Plans are ‘living’ documents (i.e., planning is a process, and plans should evolve to account for changing conditions) Case studies of actual experiences can help make the business case (especially if quantifiable, but also if they tell a meaningful story) We’re going to build on what you’ve already done (i.e. leverage your existing GIS Strategic Plan)
