INTRODUCTION
Being in charge with setting the direction of Clark International Airport Corporation (CIAC)
towards the attainment of its vision, mission, and goals, the Corporate Planning Department
organized its annual planning activity – the Strategic Planning Workshop – on December 09
and 10, 2014.
With the objective of aligning and appreciating all the business management tools – Quality
Management System, Departmental / Office Scorecards, Philippine Quality Award, GCG-
Performance Evaluation System, and Strategic Performance Management System – being
used by CIAC on the plans and programs of the departments and offices, CorPlan tapped the
expertise of the Development Academy of the Philippines (DAP). It was also the main intent
of the team to obtain the strategic directives of the new CIAC President and CEO as well as
to come up with action plans pertaining to the aforesaid directives.
The workshop was facilitated by DAP consultant, Mr. Eduardo Fenix, and assisted by two (2)
DAP officers – Ms. Maria Teresa Agustin and Mr. Jason Tabinas. It was attended by CIAC top
management, department managers, assistant managers, office managers, selected
supervisors, and Samahan ng mga Manggagawa sa DMIA president.
STRATEGIC DIRECTIVES
President and CEO Emigdio P. Tanjuatco III presented the strategic directives for CIAC
emphasizing the objective of making CIAC relevant in the Philippine economy. Keeping CIAC
cost competitive and creating a stable revenue base, building customer loyalty and
satisfaction to create a demand, and striving for operational excellence in all areas of the
business were the highlights of P&CEO’s directives (refer to Annex A for the full detail of the
strategic directives).
CIAC OPERATIONS
Current operation and performance of Clark Airport was discussed by Vice President for
Commercial and Business Development Group Darwin L. Cunanan. Air service is 122 flights
per week; projected annual passenger growth rate for year 2014 is -28.15%; and total
revenue as of September 2014 increased by 10% compared to same period of year 2013.
The strategic initiatives of P&CEO were reiterated in the presentation and the drivers and
business tools being utilized by CIAC were given emphasis.
The basics of the Strategic Planning Framework such as the definition of strategy,
strategic planning, and strategic planning model were presented.
Definitions of vision, mission, objectives, key results areas, and performance indicators
(VMOKRAPI) were revisited as well as the concepts of strategies, programs, activities,
tasks, and resources (SPATRES).
In addition, the facilitator gave a lecture on the concept of strategy map, strategic
perspectives (outcomes and drivers), strategic themes, internal process value chain,
logical framework, strategic shift, performance scorecard elements, performance
scorecard, strategic initiatives, and PES & SP Model.
The facilitator discussed the steps in preparing the GCG-PES – 1) knowing your
organization; 2) building your strategy; 3) establishing success indicators; 4) crafting
strategic initiatives – as well as the strategic themes, outcome perspectives and driver
perspectives, and internal process value chain.
The planning processes being practiced by companies awarded with Philippine Quality
Award – Performance Excellence Criteria (Category 2 Strategic Planning); and with
Quality Management System Certification (ISO9001 Clause 5.4 Planning) were
thoroughly explained. The concept of Strategic Planning and Management Model of Dr.
Eduardo A. Morato, Jr. – the VMOKRAPI-SPATRES – was reviewed.
The facilitator explained the linkage of the Balanced Scorecard (BSc) to the PES. It
creates an effective management tool for establishing and maintaining vital
communication link between supervisor and employee and for objectively evaluating
and improving employee job performance as well as organizational performance.
The four-stage cycle of SPMS begins with performance planning and commitment,
performance monitoring and coaching; performance review and evaluation; and
concludes with performance rewarding and development planning. Upon completion of
the cycle, the key players then return to the first stage.
The different types of planning approaches and requirements for CIAC – on Strategic
Planning Category of PQA Criteria for Performance Excellence Framework (Strategy
Development and Strategy Implementation), ISO9001 Clause 5.4 Planning, CIAC Quality
Planning, and CIAC Planning Process – were explained to the participants.
The facilitator discussed the similarities, differences, alignment, and linkages of the
aforesaid planning approaches.
A sample template (as shown below) that can be used in the strategy development and
implementation process was shown and recommended to the attendees.
Guidelines in preparing the vision, mission, values and goals were presented by the
facilitator:

MAKE CIAC RELEVANT – a global economic gateway and the hub of choice for northern
Luzon; secondary hub of choice for metro manila.
Facilitate the ongoing evolution of the airport by providing a response to the capacity
expansion of the existing terminal. Management must strengthen its business foundation to
ensure the future success of the airport’s operation.
This year, the company will not achieve any of the financial targets originally planned and
the significant drop in passenger level must be addressed. To attract more users and improve
profitability, we need to strengthen our business base to ensure that it is solid, flexible and
resilient in the face of event risks such as a sudden drop in passenger volume.
Risk factors: CIAC is subject to business risks that significantly impact its business results.
These include policy of national government and regulating authorities, spread of a virus like
Ebola that could impact passenger volume, changes in international affairs.
Reforms in airport management must take place. This is a key element in the growth strategy
and to enhance the efficiency of the airport operations. In this regard, there should be a
thorough examination of each business activity to qualitatively transform the company’s
business structure and raising organizational productivity.
KEY RESULTS
1. Keep CIAC cost competitive and create a stable revenue base. Value creation for
airport and revenue enhancement.
a. keep airline costs low to initiate or expand service at CIAC; At this point we
have to accept that CIAC is at a weaker bargaining position when it comes to
airlines. What CIAC can control is the length of the waiver of landing fees.
b. Strengthen financial position by diversifying revenues and reduce debt as
appropriate. Aim to increase reserves. Grow profitability of non-passenger
dependent businesses to increase revenue base
c. Implement initiatives to reduce or contain the growth of operating expenses
d. Develop dormant spaces in CIAC area that will enhance value of the entire
region and increase non-aeronautical income
e. Integrate procurement management and clarify division performances on a
consolidated basis
2. Build customer loyalty and satisfaction to create a demand. Airlines see that demand
and may consider adding air service.
a. Identify customer preferences and needs
b. Create a positive brand awareness of CIAC in northern Luzon. Identify
avenues to extend CIAC brand and exposure.

3. Strive for operational excellence in all areas of business; improve capacity utilization

departments
