FIP FIRST IMPORTANT PRIORITIES
FIP • The process of picking out the most important ideas, factors, objectives, consequences • To be used in conjunction with other techniques (e.g. CAF, APC ) • Purpose is to restore the balance in a deliberate manner. • FIP is a judgement situation and there are no absolute answers.
FIP: Example • FIP on scenario “A husband and wife go to buy a used car for their family”
FIP: Example • The person selling it actually owns it • The price of the car • The type of car and colour • The engine power and speed of the car • All the mechanical parts are working well • The car is big enough for a family • Has the car been in a crash? • It will be easy to get replacement parts • It has tax and NCT certificates • What is the potential resell value?

C&S CONSEQUENCES & SEQUELS
C&S • The process of looking ahead to see the consequences of some action, plan, decision, rule, invention. • C&S deals with what may happen after the decision has been made. • Short-term (1-2 years) • Medium-term (2-5 years) • Long-term consequences (over 5 years).

C&S: Example • An Australian man introduces rabbits into the country to provide hunting for his friends.
C&S: Example • Short-Term consequences • friends have plenty to shoot at, • rabbit is alternative source of food, • lots of fun had, • lots of guns sold
C&S: Example • Medium-Term consequences • rabbits have multiplied, • they have become a pest
C&S: Example • Long-Term consequences • rabbits have spread all over Australia • do a lot of damage to crops
C&S: Exercise • “A new device has been created to immediately tell if someone is telling lies”
AGO AIMS, GOALS & OBJECTIVES
AGO • To introduce and emphasise the idea of purpose • Focus directly and deliberately on the intention behind actions. • Aim is the general direction • Goal is an ultimate destination • Objectives are recognisable points of achievement along the way
AGO: Example • “A developer is building a new shopping centre”
AGO: Example • Aim • Make all arrangements for building • Goal • Complete the shopping centre • Objectives • to make a profit, • build a successful shopping centre, • pleasing potential shoppers, • fitting in with planning authorities, • work well in time and in budget
AGO: Exercise • Develop an AGO for the police and put them in order of priority
APC ALTERNATIVES, POSSIBILITIES & CHOICES
APC • The process of deliberately trying to find alternatives. • An attempt to focus attention directly on exploring all the alternatives or choices or possibilities - beyond the obvious ones • Applies not only to action but also to explanations.
APC: Example • You arrive at school on Monday morning and see the goal posts have been removed. What could have happened?
APC: Example • Vandals cut them down • A car backed into a post badly splintering it and for safety sake it had to be removed. • The PE teacher had taken them down because they were not regulation size • The local football team borrowed them for a match • A pole vaulter needed to some quick practice • A Jousting contest had been held over the weekend and no one wanted to use real lances • A new school building is going to be built on the field
APC: Exercise • The brightest girl in class starts making mistakes in her work on purpose, what are the possible explanations ?
Summary • PMI = Plus, Minus, Interesting • CAF = Consider All Factors • OPV = Other People’s Views • FIP = First Important Priorities • C&S = Consequences & Sequels • AGO = Aims, Goals, Objectives • APC = Alternatives, Possibilities, Choices
