The Office of Planning and Policy Coordination (OPPC) supports and coordinates agency strategic planning, policy development and rule making. Its planning functions fall under the FWC's Support Offices, while its public commenting role falls under Service Offices.

OPPC uses performance-improvement expertise and resources to help other staffs develop, monitor, implement and evaluate agency, division and office strategic and operational plans and related activities.

OPPC compiles and communicates agency policies, guidelines and positions on resource-conservation issues to FWC staff, partners and stakeholders. The office provides the tools and support to coordinate and communicate subject-matter-expert reviews of other agencies' activities that may have an impact on Florida's fish and wildlife. Rule-development management activities include the proactive engagement of stakeholders and resource decision-makers to improve conservation and protection of fish and wildlife.
