o These Plan elements were developed in a matrix context where each of the Action Items (Strategic Plan Elements) in rows identified which of the High-Level Goal ( Vision for ITS-NJ ) columns were being addressed.

o The Action Items were also clustered into temporal priorities of Immediate, Intermediate, Long Range

Please first think about the matrix organization and recommend any changes (I still prefer our original naming structure, but, of course, I would)

With whatever structure you prefer, please recommend what you would like to see in the “Action Items” (aka Strategic Plan Elements) section of our “ITS-NJ 2014 Strategic Plan”.

Please get these to me by Tuesday, June 24.
