        INTRODUCTION
        §   The Virginia Economic Development Partnership Authority (VEDP) was established by the General
            Assembly in 1995 (Code of Virginia, § 2.2-2234 et seq.)

        §   VEDP is given broad powers in its enabling legislation “…to encourage, stimulate and support the
            development and expansion of the economy of the Commonwealth.”

        §   This FY22 Operational Plan has been prepared in accordance with Code of Virginia, § 2.2-2237.1 D.2.
            and the Virginia Budget, which require that an Operational Plan be completed and submitted to the
            Chairmen of the House Appropriations and Senate Finance and Appropriations Committees and to the
            Director of the Department of Planning and Budget

        §   This FY22 Operational Plan marks the fourth full year of implementation of the Strategic Plan for
            Economic Development of the Commonwealth of Virginia (FY19-FY23), approved by the VEDP Board
            of Directors in late 2017, pursuant to the Code of Virginia, §2.2-2237.1. The biennial update of the
            Strategic Plan began in January 2020 and was concluded in late 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic

        §   The 14 major initiatives contained in this FY22 Operational Plan are largely derived from the initiatives
            outlined in the updated Strategic Plan for Economic Development of the Commonwealth of
            Virginia (FY21-FY25)

        THE OPERATIONAL PLAN GUIDES VEDP’S ACTIONS THROUGHOUT

        This FY22 Operational Plan is based primarily upon the goals, strategies, and initiatives outlined
        in the updated five-year Strategic Plan (FY21-FY25)
        § The annual plan is the result of a VEDP-wide effort which identified improvement areas and new ideas
            for the coming year and translated those ideas into a plan for action
        The goals of this FY22 Operational Plan include:
        § Build clarity and alignment regarding VEDP’s strategic direction
        § Outline major priorities with deliverables and deadlines for the year
        § Ensure improved accountability for performance
        § Deliver upon numerous improvement opportunities identified by VEDP team members
        Progress against this Operational Plan* will be reviewed throughout the year through the
        following activities:
        § Regular updates at senior team meetings
        § Regular internal meetings of each VEDP division (e.g., Business Investment, Workforce, Trade)
        § Quarterly update meetings between each division head (e.g., Vice Presidents and Managing
            Directors) and their respective reports
        § Ongoing updates to the Operational Plan tracker

        OVERVIEW OF THE STRATEGIC PLAN FOR ECONOMIC
        DEVELOPMENT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA (FY21-25)
        §   On December 1, 2017, VEDP produced its Strategic Plan for Economic Development of the
            Commonwealth in accordance with § 2.2-2237.1 of the Code of Virginia

        §   As required by Code, the biennial update to the Strategic Plan for Economic Development of the
            Commonwealth of Virginia began in January 2020 but was paused throughout the spring and summer
            as the world’s attention shifted to confronting the COVID-19 pandemic. The update process was
            restarted and concluded in late 2020

        §   As required by Code, the Strategic Plan identifies specific goals and objectives for VEDP, as well as
            quantifiable metrics and performance measures for each goal and objective. The Plan also includes a
            systematic assessment of how VEDP can best add value in carrying out each of its statutory powers
            and duties

        §   Key economic development partners were integrally involved in the strategic planning process,
            including state, regional, and local economic development agencies and organizations and
            international trade organizations

        §   The Strategic Plan now contains an updated set of 35 initiatives (down from 40 in the original plan),
            which include three new initiatives developed in response to the pandemic

        §   There is considerable alignment between this FY22 Operational Plan and VEDP’s Strategic Plan as
            this year’s Operational Plan marks the fourth full year of Strategic Plan implementation. The 14 major
            initiatives contained in this FY22 Operational Plan are derived from the initiatives outlined in the
            Strategic Plan for FY21-FY25

        FRAMEWORK FOR IMPLEMENTING VEDP’S STRATEGIC PLAN

        §   Economic development is a combination of activities intended to create jobs, increase wages, and/or
            achieve industry diversification
              ‒   VEDP will primarily focus on growing the Commonwealth’s economy and bringing the greatest
                  number of high-quality jobs to Virginia’s regions
              ‒   VEDP will typically avoid actively recommending incentives or investments in projects that grow
                  a region, community, or business at the expense of other regions, communities, or businesses


        §   Creating a new Virginia economy requires aggressive, focused leadership from VEDP in three broad
            areas of activity:
              ‒   “Business development” aims to influence the investment and location decisions of corporate
                  leaders (e.g., marketing, business attraction and recruitment)
              ‒   “Product development” aims to increase Virginia’s attractiveness for business investment and
                  economic opportunity (e.g., public policy efforts, community development, site development)
              ‒   “Trade development” aims to encourage exports of Virginia products and services


        §   Much of economic development is done at the regional or local level (e.g., site selection process,
            marketing leverage, business environment, economic relationships)


        §   VEDP will strive to make its incentive and investment recommendations based on public return-on-
            investment (ROI) analyses

        IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS OF STRATEGIC PLAN

        §   The updated Strategic Plan for Economic Development of the Commonwealth of Virginia adopted by
            the VEDP Board is a five-year plan (FY21-FY25), implementation of which began July 1, 2021

        §   The Strategic Plan includes five transformational goals, the achievement of which requires the
            implementation of 14 strategies

        §   Some of the initiatives in the Strategic Plan will require new funding to implement

        §   VEDP’s FY22 Operational Plan is based on the initiatives outlined in the Strategic Plan and include
            initiatives developed in response to the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic

        TRANSFORMATIONAL GOALS FOR THE COMMONWEALTH AND VEDP

        Transformational Goal        Description
        1. Robust state job growth   Position Virginia to achieve a growth rate (measured by employment and median
                                     earned income of workers) among that of the top 5-10 states in the U.S.


        2. Every region wins         Ensure that every region participates in the growth of the Commonwealth (i.e., all with
                                     positive growth in employment and median earned income of workers)


        3. Best state for business   Restore Virginia to its previous leadership position near the top of the national
                                     business climate rankings (i.e., average position among the top 3-5 states)


        4. Top state EDO             Reestablish VEDP as one of America’s most effective state economic development
                                     organizations (principally to better enable accomplishment of the top three
                                     transformational goals)

        5. Super collaborator        Exhibit collaboration and coordination as hallmarks of VEDP (i.e., place a central
                                     focus on the “P” in VEDP)

        PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE ON ALL FIVE TRANSFORMATIONAL
        GOALS, BUT MUCH WORK REMAINS TO FULLY ACHIEVE THEM

        Transformational Goal          Description                                                                       Outlook
        1. Robust state job growth     Position Virginia to achieve a growth rate (measured by employment and
                                       median earned income of workers) among that of the top 5-10 states in
                                       the U.S.

        2. Every region wins           Ensure that every region participates in the growth of the Commonwealth
                                       (i.e., all with positive growth in employment and median earned income of
                                       workers)

        3. Best state for business     Restore Virginia to its previous leadership position near the top of the
                                       national business climate rankings (i.e., average position among the top
                                       3-5 states)

        4. Top state EDO               Reestablish VEDP as one of America’s most effective state economic
                                       development organizations (principally to better enable accomplishment of
                                       the top three transformational goals)

        5. Super collaborator          Exhibit collaboration and coordination as hallmarks of VEDP (i.e., place a
                                       central focus on the “P” in VEDP)



        • On track to achieve long-term goals with no major            • Will likely not meet goal (typically due to lack of funding)
          concerns
        • Will make progress against long-term goals but               • Not started
          concerns (typically due to funding challenges)
