This document outlines the components of setting smart goals for a business: specific goals should define what you want to accomplish, who is involved, and requirements; measurable goals require defining how progress and completion will be determined; achievable goals can realistically be completed in the proposed timeframe based on available resources and steps; relevant goals use available resources and fit priorities; and time-bound goals specify earliest completion date and work timeline.
