The Order grounds development planning on the 1987 Philippine Constitution, which requires the government to implement continuing, integrated, and coordinated programs and policies for national development after consultations with appropriate public agencies, private sectors, and local government units.
It further relies on Executive Order No. 292 (s. 1987), the Administrative Code of 1987, which requires that all socio-economic programs and activities be programmed within the context of well-formulated and consistent long, medium, and short-term development plans and policies to promote both economic growth and the equitable distribution of benefits.
The Order recognizes that the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) is the independent planning agency primarily responsible for formulating continuing, coordinated, and fully integrated social and economic policies, plans, and programs.

The Order adopts Ambisyon Natin 2040 as the national long-term vision that guides development planning toward the year 2040.
The Order centers development planning on Filipinos’ aspirations for themselves and the country, aiming to design programs, projects, and activities geared toward achieving development outcomes.
