Hi Martin,

Thank you for reaching out to us on Microsoft Q&A forum. 

Master planning involves evaluating the current availability of raw materials and capacities, as well as determining what must be manufactured, purchased, transferred, or kept as safety stock to ensure the completion of production.

In master planning, the assessment includes analyzing existing raw materials and capacities to identify production needs whether it's manufacturing, purchasing, transferring resources, or maintaining safety stock necessary to meet production requirements.

The main purposes of master planning:

It offers a clear roadmap to guide decision-makers, developers, and stakeholders in shaping the future development and evolution of the area.

It ensures that different facets of development (such as land use, transportation, utilities) are harmoniously coordinated to create an efficient built environment.

It involves stakeholders and the community in the planning process, ensuring their needs and aspirations are thoroughly considered and incorporated.

It establishes the foundation for zoning ordinances, development regulations, and other legal mechanisms governing land use and development activities.

It advocates for sustainable development practices that balance economic growth with environmental preservation and social equity.

It anticipates future challenges and opportunities, offering flexibility to adjust and thrive amidst evolving conditions over time.
