Where to start

What needs to be clearer
before the next step?

You do not need to choose a deliverable first. Start with the situation your Nation is facing.

A meeting or response is approaching.

You need the relevant findings, unanswered questions and required responses together.

Prepare a decision brief

The project history is hard to carry forward.

Staff have changed or decisions and commitments sit across different files.

Reconnect the project record

A report is marked complete.

You need to know whether it answers the question your Nation asked.

See the worked example

New information changes an earlier view.

You need to distinguish the changes from what remains unresolved.

Bring the status up to date

Tell us what is approaching.
