NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 NIST800-PL-2: PL-2 System Security and Privacy Plans
a. Develop security and privacy plans for the system that: 1. Are consistent with the organization’s enterprise architecture; 2. Explicitly define the constituent system components; 3. Describe the operational context of the system in terms of mission and business processes; 4. Identify the individuals that fulfill system roles and responsibilities; 5. Identify the information types processed, stored, and transmitted by the system; 6. Provide the security categorization of the system, including supporting rationale; 7. Describe any specific threats to the system that are of concern to the organization; 8. Provide the results of a privacy risk assessment for systems processing personally identifiable information; 9. Describe the operational environment for the system and any dependencies on or connections to other systems or system components; 10. Provide an overview of the security and privacy requirements for the system; 11. Identify any relevant control baselines or overlays, if applicable; 12. Describe the controls in place or planned for meeting the security and privacy requirements, including a rationale for any tailoring decisions; 13. Include risk determinations for security and privacy architecture and design decisions; 14. Include security- and privacy-related activities affecting the system that require planning and coordination with [Assignment: organization-defined individuals or groups]; and 15. Are reviewed and approved by the authorizing official or designated representative prior to plan implementation. b. Distribute copies of the plans and communicate subsequent changes to the plans to [Assignment: organization-defined personnel or roles]; c. Review the plans [Assignment: organization-defined frequency]; d. Update the plans to address changes to the system and environment of operation or problems identified during plan implementation or control assessments; and e. Protect the plans from unauthorized disclosure and modification.

What else in your programme already covers this
This control maps to 62 controls across 34 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.
NIST-CSF-GV.SC-01 A cybersecurity supply chain risk management program, strategy, objectives, policies, and processes are established and agreed to by organizational stakeholders
NIST-CSF-ID.IM-04 Incident response plans and other cybersecurity plans that affect operations are established, communicated, maintained, and improved
You are reading one control. How much of NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 have you already done?
NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 NIST800-PL-2 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 your existing evidence covers. Hold ISO 27001:2022 and 163 of 1014 NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 controls already carry evidence.
Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 342 were rejected on the ISO 27001:2022 pair alone.
