The JBP functions as both a planning and reporting mechanism, fostering collaborative improvement rather than merely addressing service deficiencies. Key steps for finalising a JBP include convening a meeting between project leads from both organizations, encouraging open dialogue on innovations and improvements, brainstorming initiatives to enhance delivery, value, risk management, and relationship development, and utilizing a Value Proposition Matrix to prioritize top initiatives for inclusion in the plan. The document emphasizes that the JBP should be treated as a living document, reviewed and updated quarterly to reflect the evolving relationship between customer and supplier.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/","Template",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/forms/","Forms",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/joint-business-planning/164726/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/joint-business-planning/164726.png","ImageObject",442,249,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Xiajie","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document","2026-09-23","2026-08-31",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",5,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"What is a Joint Business Plan (JBP)?","Question",{"text":63,"@type":64},"A Joint Business Plan (JBP) is a template used to manage and achieve joint strategic objectives between a customer (agency) and its suppliers, serving as both a planning and reporting tool.","Answer",{"name":66,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":67},"What is the primary goal of a Joint Business Plan meeting?",{"text":68,"@type":64},"The primary goal is to collaboratively identify initiatives that will improve delivery, value release, risk exposure, and relationship development, aligning supplier efforts with the customer's strategic goals.",{"name":70,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":71},"How often should a Joint Business Plan be reviewed and updated?",{"text":72,"@type":64},"A Joint Business Plan should be reviewed and updated quarterly between the customer and supplier, treating it as a live document that evolves with the relationship.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":32,"og:type":75,"og:title":10,"og:site_name":45,"og:description":12},"article",{"robots":77,"canonical":32},"index,follow",{"doc_id":79,"site_id":7},164726,1788159818,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":83},"success",[84,89,94,99,104,109,113,118,122],{"id":85,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":86,"show_sort_weight":87,"slug":88},11,"Presentations",90,"presentations",{"id":90,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":91,"show_sort_weight":92,"slug":93},12,"Resumes",80,"resumes",{"id":95,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":96,"show_sort_weight":97,"slug":98},14,"Invoices",70,"invoices",{"id":100,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":101,"show_sort_weight":102,"slug":103},15,"Posters",60,"posters",{"id":105,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":106,"show_sort_weight":107,"slug":108},16,"Social Media",50,"social-media",{"id":110,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":111,"slug":112},17,40,"forms",{"id":114,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":115,"show_sort_weight":116,"slug":117},18,"Letters",30,"letters",{"id":119,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":120,"show_sort_weight":55,"slug":121},21,"Paper Templates","papers-templates",{"id":123,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":4,"slug":125},158,"General","general-158",{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":127},{"doc_id":79,"user_id":128,"nickname":42,"user_avatar":129,"doc_module":22,"category_id":110,"category_name":29,"doc_title":10,"doc_description":12,"doc_content":130,"file_id":131,"file_url":132,"file_type":133,"file_size":134,"view_count":55,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":22,"is_downloadable":22,"audit_status":22,"page_count":55,"language":135,"language_code":8,"site_id":7,"html_lang":8,"table_of_contents":136,"faqs":137,"seo_title":138,"seo_description":12,"update_tm":80,"read_time":26},8814010472675,"https://avatar.qwps.com/avatar/WGlhamll","Joint business planning\nA joint business plan (JBP) is a useful template for managing and delivering joint strategic objectives for the customer (the agency) and its suppliers/providers. The JBP serves a dual purpose; it is a planning and a reporting tool.\nInstructions for finalising a JBP:\nSet up a meeting between the project leads from your organisation and the supplier’s organisation. Ideally, this meeting will be face-to-face and roughly 1.5 – 2 hours in length.\nLet suppliers know they’ve been chosen because you believe they’re open to innovation and improvement, and that this isn’t an exercise for ‘fixing’ service delivery. Instead, it’s intended to improve outcomes for each party. It’s an opportunity for your organisation to show the supplier what your strategic goals are, so that they can see where they can better align themselves and work with you more effectively. Suppliers are, overall, receptive to the idea of joint business planning as they often conduct similar activities with their own clients.\nOnce you’ve explained the meeting purpose, hold a short brainstorming session with post-it notes for ideas and suggestions to be jotted down. Think specifically about which initiatives would improve things like delivery, value release, risk exposure and relationship development, etc.\nDraw a rough Value Proposition Matrix (like the example below) on the whiteboard. Ask everyone to place their post-it notes where they think they belong on the matrix.\nEase of implementation\nPotential value\nWork collaboratively to pick the top 3 or 4 (or however many you like) items from the matrix to put into your joint Business Plan. (You can edit the tables below suit your own approach.)\nWork through the JBP to complete it, and sign-off to finalise.\nYour business plan should be reviewed and updated at quarterly business meetings between the customer and supplier. Treat it as a live document that evolves as the relationship does.","cbCaieag1J9NSC55","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieag1J9NSC55","docx",215039,"English","# Joint Business Plan\n## Instructions for finalising a JBP\n## Value Proposition Matrix\n## Joint Business Plan Review","[{\"question\":\"What is a Joint Business Plan (JBP)?\",\"answer\":\"A Joint Business Plan (JBP) is a template used to manage and achieve joint strategic objectives between a customer (agency) and its suppliers, serving as both a planning and reporting tool.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the primary goal of a Joint Business Plan meeting?\",\"answer\":\"The primary goal is to collaboratively identify initiatives that will improve delivery, value release, risk exposure, and relationship development, aligning supplier efforts with the customer's strategic goals.\"},{\"question\":\"How often should a Joint Business Plan be reviewed and updated?\",\"answer\":\"A Joint Business Plan should be reviewed and updated quarterly between the customer and supplier, treating it as a live document that evolves with the relationship.\"}]","Joint business planning | DOCX"]
