4 Introduction Strategic planning is an important activity the leadership of Wyoming Highway Patrol (WHP) takes seriously as it assists in providing direction, setting priorities (goals), and focusing resources (strategies) in accomplishing the agency s vision and mission. The WHP uses the balanced scorecard (BSC) to gauge goal achievement. The BSC is a template that contains the goals, performance measures, strategies, targets and actual performance. The BSC assists in: translating WHP s strategic plan, reporting past performance, and helping to plan for the future. Leadership adopted a formal process to strategically plan and develop BSCs every three years. This planning process integrates employees into the process, emphasizes buy-in and accountability for the BSC, and helps communicate results to interested stakeholders. Each section within Patrol is responsible for developing a BSC, including goals and strategies which align to the overall BSC. This strategic plan contains the 2013 BSC. For subsequent versions please refer to the WHP website ( Overview The primary duty of WHP is to keep the motoring public safe as they travel throughout the state of Wyoming. The WHP is comprised of two sections: Field Operations and Support Services. Field Operations involves patrolling the roads, traffic enforcement, crash investigation, criminal interdiction, and commercial vehicle enforcement, among other duties.
