Selected:Business Model Stress Test Stakeholder Salience Model ATAM (Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method)

Criterion	Business Strategy Business Model Stress Test	Facilitation Stakeholder Salience Model	Architecture ATAM (Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method)
Purposedifferent	A Business Model Stress Test checks how well a business model holds up under pressure and headwinds. It compares strengths, risks, market logic, and courses of action. The result is captured as a stress-test report and action plan per scenario.	When stakeholders appear to matter very differently, the Stakeholder Salience Model rates their actual priority through power, legitimacy, and urgency. It turns individual contributions into a visible selection. The result is captured as a Salience diagram and a class-based strategy.	ATAM helps teams weigh architecture decisions when quality goals compete. The team considers business goals, stakeholder expectations, and technical decisions together. The evaluation shows which risks need further investigation.
