Air Force Strategic Plan, Volume 2, Performance Plan
Abstract
Global Engagement: A Vision for the 2lst Century Air Force provides a coherent, shared vision of the United States Air Force. It describes our core competencies and core values. It is what we are all about and where we are headed. In charting the course for the future, the vision is the first step in Air Force planning. Air Force planning, from a broad perspective, encompasses two major elements: performance planning and future capabilities planning. Performance planning is aimed at enhancing the performance of near-term Mission Essential Tasks (METs). Performance planning "operationalizes" quality by establishing Air Force goals, aligning tasks to mission, and establishing performance priorities. Performance measures at the headquarters level assess how well we are accomplishing Headquarters Air Force METs in support of Air Force goals. MAJCOMs develop their own Performance Plans, which support the Air Force-level strategic plan, by identifying their own measurable tasks to focus on. Long-Range planning is aimed at developing the future capabilities the Air Force needs to achieve its vision. At the heart of future capabilities planning is the Air Force Modernization Planning Process (MPP), which takes the strategic direction and planning priorities from the Air Force senior leadership regarding capabilities development and prepares implementation plans to achieve that direction.
