Repetitious planning actions, such as Basic Facility Requirements or Asset evaluations, performed in two or more regions under a single task order in which each planning action is separate, and only affects the individual installation or region where the planning action is proposed, will not qualify as global and multi-regional planning. 2. Regional Planning (such as Regional Integration Plans, ( RIPs)) o Regional Planning is defined as infrastructure planning that is strategic in nature, crosses installations within a single region and performs analysis that leads to actionable recommendations, develops courses of action, or prioritizes identified infrastructure capability gaps that influence decision making across multiple installations across a single region.
