planeringsinsats
A press release draft from the principal uses the translation 'planning input', but this is of course inappropriate and I have no reasonable alternative, although planning must figure in the equation

Note from asker:
| Many thanks Sven! my problem is that the term planeringsarbete is also used in the same documentation and as the meaning doesn't appear to be the same, I'll have to differentiate between them. As Christine suggested, I think insats refers to investment/s of some kind in this context. +paul+ |

Is the way I'd say it.
Discussion
It could well mean something wider, which has to be 'converted' to a money value, and I think Sven's suggestion fits neatly here.
