tulossuunnitelman

Tulossuunnitelma, which translates to "results plan" or "outcome plan" in English, is a term used in Finnish public administration and organizations to describe a document outlining the expected outcomes and results of a particular activity, project, or strategic objective. It serves as a roadmap for achieving desired changes or impacts and provides a framework for measuring progress and success.

A typical tulossuunnitelma specifies the objectives that are to be achieved, often in terms of measurable indicators. These indicators can be quantitative, such as an increase in the number of users or a reduction in waiting times, or qualitative, such as an improvement in customer satisfaction or a change in public perception. The plan also often details the activities and resources that will be employed to reach these objectives.

The purpose of a tulossuunnitelma is to ensure accountability and transparency. By clearly defining what is to be achieved and how success will be measured, it allows stakeholders to monitor performance and evaluate the effectiveness of the implemented strategies. This document is frequently used in budgeting processes, where it justifies resource allocation by demonstrating the expected return on investment in terms of tangible results. It is an integral part of strategic planning and performance management in many Finnish public sector entities.
