Strategic Planning
The integration of market and outcome research into daily operations requires routine Strategic Planning. Strategic Planning as a particular function, engaged in from time to time, directs but does not contribute to the management of operations. Strategic Planning, as a way of thinking and managing an organization, makes the best use of ongoing and regular research. Organizations seeking to integrate Strategic Planning as a management function may need assistance to incorporate it as part of operations.

Partnership Management
Collaborative partnerships are essential if resource investment is to provide maximum results, and management of partnerships is a key element of Strategic Management. The effective management of partnerships will increase the direct and indirect impact of an organization on the clients or target populations served. Genuine collaboratives will improve the quality of service and the functional effectiveness of all members of a partnership. Without the application of the necessary steps and skills required to build and manage productive partnerships, the energy expended can exceed the return on investment. The ability to develop and manage effective collaboratives can be acquired and will be an essential component of an effective organization.

Research
Research applications for management and the collection of information necessary for strategic operations has not until recently been used in many development and service organizations. Many research projects provide information, but do not lend themselves to direct management application. Market, impact, and outcome research provide opportunity to maximize the benefit of resource investment. Making such research part of day-to-day operations ensures a constant flow of accurate information. Increasingly, partners, donors, and foundations expect organizations to provide quantified reports documenting the results of their activities. Without the capacity to collect and report scientific research results, an organization will be severely hampered in its efforts to remain effective.
