- Finding the logic Vertical logic - activities deliver outputs,
which contribute to intermediate outcomes, which help bring about
the overall goal (end outcomes) Horizontal logic - shows how
progress against each objective is assessed (through verifying
indicators) and the external factors (assumptions and risks) that
might affect the achievement of objectives at the next level
