This section outlines how the strategic response model is composed within the Orthogramic Metamodel. It highlights the relationships between the trigger, the impacted organisational domains, and the scenario artefact that provides a reusable and structured representation of the organisation's response.

Section

Description

Strategic response model trigger

A defined external or internal event. Example: Proposed national safety legislation for hazardous freight.

Impacted strategic drivers

One or more strategic objectives tagged as relevant to the trigger.

Key organisation units
