Airport Strategic Plan

CCRA-day3-182_Terminal & New Sign

The Cape Cod Gateway Airport (the “Airport”) has embarked on the development of a long-term strategic plan. To do so, the Airport believes that the involvement of a broad representation of the airport community and the area it serves will provide the most comprehensive outcome.

In undertaking any major task, strategic planning can be extremely effective in ensuring that those involved follow a carefully mapped out process to obtain the desired outcome. A Strategic Plan creates the framework for those designed decisions and actions. The Airport Commission, in conjunction with Airport Management, has selected the MVP Strategic Planning Model to use as a framework in developing its strategic plan. MVP stands for Mission, Vision, Philosophy.

An effective strategic planning model comprehensively ties statements of Mission, Vision and Philosophy, Goals, Objectives and Financials together into a cohesive unified map. It provides clarity around an organization’s Purpose, Future State, and Values, creates Goals derived from the Future State, and Objectives designed to accomplish those Goals. It articulates an organization’s reason for being and the way it will behave as it sets about its tasks. And it creates line-of-sight between its day-to-day and its guiding principles. The MVP Strategic Planning Model does all of this.

Participation involves attending a series of meetings over the course of four weeks. Each meeting will be held from 5 to 7 PM in the airport terminal, first floor, adjacent to baggage claim and will be broken down into the following sessions:

  • 1st session = Training on the MVP Strategic Planning Model (August 26, 2024)
  • 2nd session = Development of statements of Mission, Vision, and Philosophy (September 9, 2024)
  • 3rd session = Development of Goals and Objectives (September 16, 2024)
  • 4th session = Final Review of the Airport MVP Strategic Plan (September 30, 2024)
