For firms that have already established a clear strategic vision, business planning is an effective way to improve the operations of an organization. A business plan aids in controlling the activities of the firm, and supports the existing strategic plan. Typically the focus of a business plan is to improve the efficiency and effectiveness in operating areas such as finance, marketing, operations, and planning. The business plan is designed to improve the effectiveness of an organization without changing its strategic direction.
