This stage prepares the ground for making the detailed plan in the next stage. This is done by operationalising the vision or a comparable plan such as SE(C)AP from stage 1, further organising internal and external collaboration, and ensuring the financial and human resources for this preparatory phase. Per objective, a strategy is developed or a policy made that is translated into concrete ways forward. The way of working makes sure that not only the city administration but also key stakeholders agree on the road to go and which ways forward are most suited to realise this.
