Strategic Planning Software FAQs
What is strategic planning software and how does it work?
It’s a platform that turns strategy into executable plans, connecting objectives to initiatives, projects, and tasks. Leaders set KPIs and targets, monitor progress via dashboards, and adjust plans during scheduled reviews. The result is clear ownership, better alignment, and faster decision-making.
How does Skefto align strategy with risk and compliance?
Skefto’s planning module connects with Risk and Compliance, so strategic priorities reflect risk appetite and obligations. Risks, incidents, or compliance findings can feed into plan reviews, while strategic changes can trigger aligned actions in other modules, keeping governance tight across the stack.
Can the software be customised for different industries and planning methodologies?
Yes. Configure plan hierarchies, fields, workflows, and permissions to suit local or state government, education, aged care, or enterprise contexts. You can reflect your preferred methodology and terminology while maintaining a consistent governance model.
How long does implementation take?
Deployment depends on scope and scale. As a guide across Skefto solutions, smaller teams often deploy in 1–3 months, while larger or multi-site organisations take 3–6 months, supported by onboarding and training for a successful rollout.
Does it support integrated planning requirements in Australian Local Government?
Yes. Skefto supports integrated planning and performance reporting, including across jurisdictions like VIC, WA, and TAS, helping councils link strategy to operations and report progress with confidence.
