Many years ago in my life as a maintenance planner an Annual Work Plan consisted of 13 x 4 weekly periods; this was a rolling plan ie. as each period was completed a new 4 weekly period was added. Each period showed planned preventive maintenance, an allowance for defects, capital improvement projects etc. The total projected workload was then levelled for resource/equipment availablity. The AWP was one part of a forecasting hierachy that had weekly, monthly, yearly, 5 & 10 year planning windows.
AWP - Normally is a forward planning schedule for next FY
It contains three types of projects
1. Project that is started and will be keep going next year
2. Project that is already plan to commence next year
3. Project is likely to start next years
Then you draw your resource line, budget line, revenue line and analysis the best combination / result / outcomes from the Annual Work Plan and cancel the projects that will not meet the budget/revenue/resource ...etc
Once you finalised the AWP then it becomes your baseline plan for next year.

Well the Annual Work plan is very specific plan for 1 year only
You can call it mid range forecasting. In addition, the Annual work plan normally aligned with the forthcoming next FY budget.
