Here too, the four-stage process was not linear but cyclic because
there is potential for continuous, far-reaching improvements

the programme was led to adjustments. A fresh round of new
initiatives has since started, largely following a similar sequence
of phases. As the preparatory work will not begin from scratch,
activities in phase 1 may be partially skipped or abbreviated.
However, in phase 2, similar activities must be carried out to those
in the first round. This also holds for phase 3. After the second
round of initiatives, the entire process is expected to be repeated
multiple times before the final stage of mainstreaming all circular
initiatives comes within reach. This is visualised in the figure on
the following page.
