short-term plan
Near-future course
A short-term plan is a strategy or course of action designed for the near future, typically spanning days, weeks, or months rather than years.
It addresses immediate goals or problems: Our short-term plan is to stabilize sales before expanding.
Short-term plans often serve as stepping stones toward longer-range objectives, or as responses to urgent circumstances that don't allow for extended planning.
