Stages in the appraisal process

Stage	SMP	Strategy plan	Scheme
Aim	To identify policies to reduce risk	To identify appropriate scheme types to implement policies	To identify the nature of works to implement the preferred scheme
Delivers	Broad-brush assessment risk, opportunities and constraints, areas of uncertainty	Preferred approach (i.e scheme type) including economic and environmental decisions	Comparison of different implementation options for preferred scheme type
Output	Generic policies (e.g. hold the line, advance the line etc.)	Type of scheme (e.g. beach recharge, seawall, setback, embankment, etc.)	Type of works (e.g. revetment, wall, recycling etc.)
