Strategic planning, an essential first step in the development of a results-based accountability system, is defined as the process of addressing the following questions:
1. Goal setting
2. Prioritize Goals and Tasks
3. Developing the planning premises
4. Reviewing Limitations.
5. Deciding the planning period
6. Formulation of policies and strategies
7. Preparing operating plans.
8. Integration of plans.
9. Identify Alternative Courses of Action.
Basically you need to start from the end! where do you want to reach, this is the Goal setting.
Once you determinant your target, you need to review the available sources comparing with required ones; now you have the plan and the tools, accordingly referring to the available sources and forecasted productivity you can set the timelines for completing associated tasks.
To guarantee the proper delivery you need to evaluate the achieved task, which might lead you to improve and develop the process and performance, also expect the unexpected, so you need to keep plan B ready in hand.
However strategic planning is not a dream, but a calculation of the possibilities, but the impossible come true when a dreamer find a way to make it done.

Thank you the invite, I agree with the answer given by experts
Planning isn't always about solving a problem, it could be about avoiding one or achieving a goal.
We have to differentiate whether it was short-term, medium-term or long-term plan, but according to your question formula i guess you meant short-term planning.
1- set an objective: Reasonable and achievable according to the company current status and abilities.
2- Dividing and time-framing: The main objective should be divided into small phases within strict time frame.
3- Defining the obstacles and how to avoid or overcoming it: Forecasting is a main factor of success, reading the current available info, looking to the history of the company, Predicting the forthcoming ..........
4- Alternatives: Facing unpredicted events, or very rare to happen foretelling can cause failure, so preparing an alternative is a safe path to go all the way to the finish line.
These are the essential planning process as i see, and I hope It could help.
Most of the answer is appropriate but in addition to that I would like to add:
Identify problem and define the problem in breakdown structure for better understanding.
as above PDCA and SWOT analysis play key role in planning.
- Setting goals
- Develop strategies & Ojectives
- Select tasks
- Resources
