When to use it

Means taking previous information, results or discussion as the foundation for the next step. Example: アンケートの結果けっかを踏ふまえて、サービスを改善かいぜんする (improve the service based on the survey results). Typical nouns are 結果けっか, 意見いけん, 議論ぎろん, 経験けいけん, 反省はんせい, 現状げんじょう.

Nuance

Formal, very common in business meetings, reports and official statements. The second clause is usually a plan, decision or action, and unlike many N1 patterns it can express the speaker's own intention. It sounds careful and responsible.
