  8. Strategic
Planning 
 • The
most
important
ac6vity
HEAnet
undertook
this
year,
apart
from 
 running
the
core
services,
was
the
development
of
a
new
Strategic
 Plan
to
drive
the
company
forward
over
the
next
five
years.
 • The
strategy
document
provides
a
framework
for
management
 decision‐making
in
a
range
of
areas
including
current
and
future
 services
development.

 • It
addresses
fundamental
issues
around
why
HEAnet
exists,
how
the
 company
adds
value
for
client
organisaAons,
delivers
real
cost
 benefits
to
the
funders
of
educaAon
and
research
in
Ireland
and
 where
the
networking
organisaAon
wants
to
be
in
the
future.
