27. BROADBAND STRATEGIC PLANNING
Will identify strategies, and related directions,
initiatives, goals and objectives, that can be
employed by interested parties within the
region.
It is a large scale, high-level planning exercise
It provides specific guideposts and pathways
to better help the region build long term
broadband sustainability
Addresses both availability (supply) and
adoption (demand) within the region.
27
28. BROADBAND STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS
The Strategic Planning process is split into four (4)
phases:
Phase 1 (Completed Today): Needs Assessment and
Existing Information Review – A detailed understanding
of the current broadband climate and the current and
future broadband-related needs in the region.
Phase 2 (Beginning Today): How to move from the
current broadband environment to the one needed
within the region.
Strengths,Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC)
analysis will be performed.
28
29. SWOC ANALYSIS
The definitions of the four (4) SWOC elements are as
follows:
Strengths – Broadband-related systems, practices,
processes, and resources that are highly valued by the
region.
Weaknesses – Areas that need improvement; reasons why
stakeholders are not able to wholeheartedly embrace
broadband; and, areas that tend to compromise the
achievement of high levels of availability and adoption.
Opportunities – Favorable situations/circumstances not yet
taken advantage of that may positively impact the
development and acceptance of broadband.
Challenges – Present and future situations/circumstances
that may negatively impact broadband development and
acceptance as perceived by the region.
29
31. SWOC ANALYSIS
Phase 2: cont’d
The analysis should cover a wide range of issues including
those centered on:
residential, business and institutional broadband availability
and adoption,
whether available bandwidth(s) are sufficient for current as well
as near and long term needs and applications,
potential upgrade and expansion possibilities,
reliability of existing networks,
related matters.
Providers are asked during Phase 2 to present their ideas
on possibilities for advancing the broadband environment.

directions.
In this phase, a number of potential strategic
directions and initiatives will be identified,
reviewed, discussed, and then incorporated into the
initial draft of the Strategic Plan.
