      • Clarify Internal and external roles and responsibilites for effective collaboration
      • Identify key performance issues for each strategic goals and objective
      • Assess a strategy’s effect on outcomes
      • Defines an evalutate strategies against desired chracteristics
      • Document strategy identification process
    • Investment Prioritization
      • Assign internal roles and responsibilities
      • Develop scenarios to evaluate strategies
