There are two ways that your Amplify instance can be structured. The advanced model, also known as Strategy Management, supports a greater amount of customization and flexibility.
How the advanced model works
Rather than following a fixed hierarchy, the advanced model lets you create and customize your own classification system. Initiatives can be related to one another using categories and groupings you define — based on business units, regions, product lines, strategic themes, or any other framework that reflects the way your organization operates.
Advantages of the advanced model
- The structure can evolve as priorities change or new strategies are introduced, without requiring a complete redesign.
- Multiple ways of organizing initiatives can coexist within the same instance.
- Because it uses your own classifications, data can be viewed and analyzed according to the perspectives that matter most to your stakeholders.
Where a strategy is expected to remain static, or a smaller, simpler structure is enough, the simple model is available instead.
