Operational Planning

The WMO Operating Plan is one of the components of the WMO strategic planning process and Results-based Management Framework and guides the implementation of programme activities aimed at achieving the Expected Results to realize the mission of the Organization as presented in the WMO Strategic Plan for the period 2016-2019.

The Operating Plan presents time-bound programme activities and projects to be implemented to achieve Expected Results and the associated Key Outcomes and deliverables. The Operating Plan provides the foundation for WMO Results-based Budget, which identifies regular resources to implement programme activities and projects in the Operating Plan, as well as voluntary resources for project initiatives that contribute to the achievement of the Expected Results.

The Operating Plan is also an essential element in the implementation of the WMO Monitoring and Evaluation System, which is the other component of the WMO strategic planning process and Results-based Management.
