Planning

Indicator: 

This indicator gauges the level of planning input, which should include the setting of goals, and monitoring and assessment of progress towards those goals. The degree to which management interventions are covered by adequate planning provides a basis for explaining the degree to which outputs and outcomes are achieved.
