Office of Hawaiian Affairs – Land Management Operational Strategy

Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) – Land Management Kauhale (Department) Formulation, Functional and Operational Strategy

OHA has multiple, multi-faceted and multi-form beneficiaries, including direct and multiple layers of less direct and indirect interested parties. It has responsibility for places, natural resources, cultural traditions, sacred sites and gathering areas. Its interests transcend time and cover the past, present and future. Thus, simplistic, narrow, situational approaches are likely to result in suboptimal, even disappointing outcomes, both generally and especially in terms of OHA priorities. Therefore, OHA strategies must reflect the breadth, scope, subtlety and diversity of its multiple beneficiaries and responsibilities.

The primary consulting function focused on advice on Public Lands Issues, including environmental and economic issues to enable OHA Trustees to make informed decisions on the real estate portfolio and other related matters. Ultimately, that led to the preparation of a Structure, Strategies, Policies and Procedures statement.

The Structure, Strategies, Policies and Procedures statement incorporated several Trustee adopted policies and plans, including:

  • OHA Real Estate Vision, Mission and Strategy
  • OHA Land Acquisition and Management Policy and Procedures
  • OHA Business Plan
  • OHA Investment Policy
  • OHA SWOT Analysis

Financial decisions concerning OHA Property Involvements have three time dimensions:

  • The past = cultural traditions, landmark properties and sacred sites
  • The present = programmatic spending for housing, community meeting areas, etc.
  • The future = investment properties to provide resources for the future

The OHA Structure, Strategies, Policies and Procedures statement concluded with a Multi-Factor Decision Model Considerations for OHA property involvements. OHA property involvement decision criteria necessarily are multi-factored, for the decisions that OHA makes involving property involvements must balance:

  1. Portfolio Consistency / Diversification
  2. Cultural / Spiritual Connection
  3. Financial/Economic
  4. Management Implications
  5. Real estate involvement decision-making sequence
