ICANN Strategic and Operating Plan Process
ICANN produces a three-year Strategic Plan (reviewed and updated annually), along with a framework for the draft Operating Plan and Budget, and an annual Operating Plan.
The ICANN planning process is continuous and allows for an overlapping of its three components:
- Strategic Plan, which is developed with community input usually between July and February
- Framework for the Operating Plan and Budget that begins in December with community input and target setting
- Draft Operating Plan and Budget that is posted by 17 May of each year for final community review
This year's approved Strategic Plan 2011-2014 [PDF, 3.37 MB] – posted after being adopted by the ICANN Board at the Silicon Valley Meeting – has incorporated strategic metrics based on extensive community input, review and public forums held in both Cartagena and Silicon Valley.
The Strategic Plan feeds into the Operating Plan and Budget and helps to define ICANN's yearly goals and priorities, and will be considered for adoption by the Board at the next ICANN Meeting in Singapore (18-23 June 2011).
