Mr. Kevin O'Rourke Page 7 engaging, working in small groups around the specific goals and objectives. We will prepare a template for use during the workshop, similar to the template shown above. For implementation to occur in an orderly and effective manner, it is important for the following elements to be identified early on: • Key tasks, • Timeline (start and completion dates), • Resources needed and currently available (and sources), • Staff assigned (including a lead person), and • Milestones and success measures. After the workshop, we will prepare a draft implementation plan. We will ask the subcommittee to review it to ensure it contains all of the information needed and is accurate. Once we have received feedback, we will finalize the implementation plan, which will become part of the strategic plan document. We will then finalize the strategic plan document and submit it to the City for adoption. Project Team Management Partners has formed an experienced project team for this engagement.
