# Plan, Prioritize, Execute, Realize

Conductor’s four-phase lifecycle for strategy execution — from planning work, to prioritizing it, delivering it, and realizing its value on one data model.

Plan → Prioritize → Execute → Realize is the lifecycle model at the heart of Conductor. Plan captures strategy, ideas, and business cases; Prioritize scores and sequences the portfolio with stage gates; Execute drives delivery across workstreams, milestones, and RAID; Realize tracks ROI and benefits with GL-code tracing and P&L tagging.

The four phases share one data model, giving full traceability from the boardroom to the project team — the connection between strategy and financial outcome that strategy execution depends on.
