This
Strategic Plan (SP) covers a three year period from the financial year
of 2010/2011 to 2012/2013 and is the first Tanzania Forest Services
(TFS) Strategic Plan. The process of developing this plan involved
situational analysis covering review of plans of Forestry and Beekeeping
Department (FBD) where main roles and functions of the Agency were
derived.
The process also included stakeholders’ analysis and SWOC
analysis with the aim of scanning the capacity of the Agency. The
situational analysis came up with areas for improvement and critical
issues that need to be addressed in the plan.
The critical issues identified in the situation analysis together with other FBD interventions were the basis for developing the mission, vision, core values, objectives, strategies, targets and key performance indicators.
