| Criterion |  Architecture LASR (Lightweight Approach for Software Reviews) |  Business Strategy Strategy Execution Loop |  Architecture Architecture Decision Record |  Business Strategy Strategic, Tactical and Operational Planning |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | LASR helps development teams identify where their software falls short of important quality goals and which improvements to consider. A small group with existing system knowledge can make an initial assessment and investigate open questions in more detail. | The Strategy Execution Loop helps avoid treating strategy as a one-off document. It makes visible how strategic decisions are turned into objectives, initiatives, operational work, measurement, and learning. | An ADR permanently records an architecture decision with context, trade-offs, and consequence. It creates continuity for later changes because the decision path stays traceable. | It places decisions and artifacts at the right level. Strategic planning clarifies direction, tactical planning translates it into programs, and operational planning steers concrete processes. |
Complexitydifferent | Medium | High | Low | Medium |
Timedifferent | 3–4 h for initial assessment; preparation and deeper analysis additional | Initial 3-6 h, then monthly or quarterly reviews | 15-45 min | 90-180 min |
Participantsdifferent | 1 or a small team; particularly suitable for 3–4 people | 5-12 | 1-3 | 4-12 |
Formatdifferent | Workshop + async | Workshop + async | Async | Workshop |
Outputdifferent | Lean Mission Statement describing the software’s purpose, Prioritized quality goals and evaluation criteria, Risks and estimated gaps against quality goals, More closely examined findings and open checks | Execution Loop, Review Cadence, Strategic Learning Log | ADR File, Decision Log, Rationale | Planning Levels Map, Cadence Model, Planning Artifact Inventory |
