  2. Business plan A business plan is a formal statement of a set of business goals, the reasons why they are believed attainable, and the plan for reaching those goals. It may also contain background information about the organization or team attempting to reach those goals. Business plans may also target changes in perception and branding by the customer, tax-payer, or larger community.

  3. Business plan (externally) Business plans may be internally or externally focused. Externally focused plans target goals that are important to external stakeholders,. They typically have detailed information about the organization or team attempting to reach the goals. For government agencies, external stakeholders include tax-payers, higher-level government agencies, and international lending bodies such as the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, various economic agencies of the United Nations, and development banks.

  4. Business plan (Internally) Internally focused business plans target intermediate goals required to reach the external goals. They may cover the development of a new product, a new service, a new IT system, a restructuring of finance, the refurbishing of a factory or a restructuring of the organization. An internal business plan is often developed in conjunction with a balanced scorecardor a list of critical success factors. Business plans that identify and target internal goals, but provide only general guidance on how they will be met are called strategic plans. Operational plans describe the goals of an internal organization, working group or department.Project plans , sometimes known as project frameworks, describe the goals of a particular project.
