Single-use Plan: A single-use plan is developed for a one-time event or project. Such a course of action is not likely to be repeated in future, i.e., they are for non-recurring situations. The duration of this plan may depend upon the type of the project. It may span a week or a month. A project may sometimes be of only one day, such as, organising an event or a seminar or conference. These plans include budgets, programmes and projects.
A programme may consist of identifying steps, procedures required for opening a new department to deal with other minor work. Projects aresimilar to programmes but differ in scope and complexity. A budget is a statement of expenses, revenue and income for a specified period.
