<p class="govuk body">This stage helps us to understand the planning data landscape.</p>

<h3 class="govuk-heading-s">What happens</h3>

<p class="govuk-body">Someone tells us about a planning subject area (we call these considerations) that plays a part in decision making in planning. This can be during application or plan mkaing processes. They are expressing an opinion that data for this consideration should be more readily available.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">We add it to the backlog. And indicate where we think it fits with our programme objectives.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">Being on the backlog is a promise we'll looking the consideration.</p>

<h2 class="govuk-heading-m">Screen</h2>

<p class="govuk body">This stage helps us to verify that a consideration plays an important role in the planning system.</p>

<h3 class="govuk-heading-s">What happens</h3>

<p class="govuk-body">We answer questions in the screening stage to help us to understand the the legal underpinnings of the consideration, where it is used and needed in the planning system and what, if any, data already exists.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">At this stage, it is usually possible to tell if we can use an existing national dataset or whether a standard might be needed</p>

<h2 class="govuk-heading-m">Research</h2>

<p class="govuk body">This stage is intended to help us to understand the planning need for a consideration.</p>

<h3 class="govuk-heading-s">What happens</h3>

<p class="govuk-body">We answer questions in the research stage to help us understand the planning and data need.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">We capture how and where considerations are used, the size and scope of any potential data yield, assumed user needs, use-cases for the data and an expectation of who might be able to provide the required data.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">This information is essential for data modelling.</p>

<h2 class="govuk-heading-m">Co-design</h2>

<p class="govuk body">This stage is focused on us designing the smallest data model that will satisfy the highest number of needs.</p>

<h3 class="govuk-heading-s">What happens</h3>

<p class="govuk-body">In the co-design stage we develop a draft data model.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">Our approach is to start small and build up. Therefore we will design a data model to capture the fewest data points needed to satisfy the clearest, most important use-cases.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">The data model will be co-designed with users: people needing data, people providing the data and stakeholders.</p>

<h2 class="govuk-heading-m">Test and iterate</h2>

<p class="govuk body">This stage helps us to build confidence in the data model, proving it is both feasible and will add value.</p>
