It is important to plan strategically for optimization of resources within educational institutions and seek continuous improvement of the quality of services provided and a strategic management of the main requirements related to teaching, research, and extension. Strategic Planning (SP) is developed as a way to assist in setting objectives, future goals, decision making, monitoring, control, and strategic organization. It should use resources such as mission, vision, values, Strategic Map and SWOT Analysis. In Higher Education Institutions (HEI), there is a need to develop an effective SP, which can align with the budget planning and always be prepared to adapt to possible budget changes and political issues being considered a legal obligation according to the Federal Constitution of 1988, decrees and laws. In Brazil, the planning, orientation, coordination, and supervision of the entire National Higher Education Policy is the responsibility of the Secretary of Higher Education (SESu), which requires the formalization and systematization of your own SP. Based on this premise, this work has as its primary objective to evaluate the actions carried out during the development of the SESu’s SP in order to identify the means of conducting, implementing, and monitoring proposed for the Secretary to meet all necessary requirements in accordance with the guidelines of the Ministry of Education (MEC). In this context, the case study method was employed, using it as an instrument of data collection interviews and remote meetings. Among the main results, it was possible to track the progress of the actions developed in all stages executed for the SESu’s SP, make a comparison with what was executed in the MEC’s SP and what was proposed by the Technical Guide for Strategic Management, seek to identify possible changes and alterations caused by the government transition, as well as model the planning process using Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) notation and analyze the compressibility of the model.
