THIS THIRD TYPE OF PLAN IS RECOMMENDED. CONSIDERATIONS IN DEVELOPING THE PLAN ARE DISCUSSED.

BASIC ELEMENTS OF THE MASTER PLAN INCLUDE: GOALS AND OBJECTIVES, SECURITY ANALYSIS, REQUIREMENTS ANALYSIS, ALLOCATION OF RESPONSIBILITY, CONCEPTUAL DESIGN, PRIORITIES, BUDGET ADMINISTRATION, AND TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS.
