1. Define clear examples of your focus areas


Focus areas are the broad topics that an organization wants to address during the integration process.

When determining focus areas, it is important to consider the organizational goals and objectives of the integration.

2. Think about the objectives that could fall under that focus area

3. Set measurable targets (KPIs) to tackle the objective


KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) are measurable goals that are set to track progress towards achieving an objective. For example, if the objective is to improve communication between organizations, a KPI could be to increase the number of meetings between working groups. KPIs should be measurable, have an initial value, a target value, and a unit of measurement.

4. Implement related projects to achieve the KPIs


Projects (also known as actions) are activities that are undertaken to achieve the objectives and KPIs set in the integration plan.
