VRIO typically comes after you've come up with a mission statement that sets the grand vision for your project. But note that VRIO analysis should take place before the strategic planning process. This is because VRIO uncovers the resources and capabilities that give your organization a long-term competitive advantage. Whatever results you extract from this analysis will in turn determine how you approach your strategic decisions.
