I was wondering whether づく has some meaning here, that could help understand and memorize this point. Is it related to 付く?

I am having some trouble understanding the distinction between this point and の下で – for example, in the sample sentence ちゃんと計画に基づいて、動いてください, would ちゃんと計画のもとで、動いてください not have the same meaning?
