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 strategic response 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 | Units tagged as responsible, dependent, or impacted based on capability and service roles. |
Affected capabilities | Filtered based on alignment with strategic objectives or dependency relationships. |
Service dependencies | Services required to respond to or deliver the desired outcome of the strategic response. |
Value streams engaged | End-to-end business processes likely to be activated or altered. |
Information requirements | Information assets needed to inform decisions or satisfy compliance. |
Stakeholders | Primary stakeholders affected, mapped to expectations, engagement plans, or risks. |
Policies and compliance | Policies that apply or must be created/updated. |
Performance measures | KPIs that will demonstrate strategic response readiness or success. |
Initiative/program links | Existing or proposed initiatives addressing the strategic response. |
...
The trigger catalogue provides a curated and expanding set of predefined triggers that can be used to initiate strategic responses. Each trigger is tagged to relevant business architecture domains, enabling efficient strategic response planning and alignment across organisational activities.
Trigger Category | Example Triggers |
Regulatory or compliance | New legislation, compliance audit mandate, data sovereignty changes |
Technological change | AI rollout, cybersecurity breach, platform deprecation |
Environmental & safety | Natural disaster preparedness, climate risk disclosures, workplace injury reform |
Operational transformation | Business process outsourcing, shared services implementation, lean redesign |
Strategic re-alignment | Mergers and acquisitions, board-level strategic pivot, budget realignment |
Customer & stakeholder | Community expectations shift, digital service demand surge, key account loss |
Workforce & skills | Critical skill shortage, union action, remote work policy adoption |
Performance response | KPI threshold breach, repeated incident occurrence, audit fail |
Political or social | Public inquiry, ministerial intervention, social licence erosion |
Innovation-led opportunity | Grant funding availability, pilot program success, ecosystem partnership offer |

This section formalises the strategic response model as composable within the Orthogramic Metamodel. It outlines the attributes required to define a model, including associated triggers, organisational roles, information dependencies, and KPIs, supporting reuse and integration across governance and planning tools.

Definition of trigger as a new open entity
Triggers are defined as a new open entity within the Orthogramic Metamodel, enabling them to be referenced independently and reused across strategic responses. Each trigger includes a unique identifier, category, description, and links to strategic responses in which it plays a role.
Attribute | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| UUID | Unique ID |
| Text | Short name (e.g. “Cybersecurity Incident”) |
| Enum | From defined set (e.g. Technological, Regulatory, etc.) |
| Text | Explanation of why this trigger matters |
| List of | Optional reverse reference |
