Additional Components of an Operational Plan
When one thinks of an Operational Plan, one thinks of a document in landscape orientation that has a number of columns for strategies, responsibility, timelines, budget and performance measures. (see Operational Plan sample page). This document is the essential component.
However, there are a number of additional components of vital importance that can be inserted into an operational plan as appendices. For a sport organisation, these components include: (follow the links for further information)
- Calendar of events (or fixtures) for the whole year (or for the season)
- Facility use schedules (i.e. allocation of pitches, courts, or equipment to particular groups at particular times)
- Resource maintenance schedules (e.g. grass mowing, floor sweeping, line marking, equipment preparation and repair )
- Training plan for coaches, officials and event volunteers
- Budgetary information that provides a breakdown of anticipated expenditure per strategy/task
- Details of Consultation undertaken to develop the operational plan
The insertion of these additional components into the appendices of the Operational Plan help to create a more useful document that can be given to key personnel within the organisation.
