Land and location
Chapters 01 to 12 cover how land is planned, how locations are compared and how the campus is laid out.
Strategy
Our strategy, in 26 chapters
Our strategy is written as one book: an executive summary, 26 chapters and annexures L to U. This page gives one line for each chapter. The full text is in the members library.
How the book is built
Four parts, one plan
Running the programme
Chapters 13 to 16 cover ESG, risk, governance and the long-term roadmap.
Platforms
Chapters 17 to 26 cover the eight platforms and how they fit together. AMS runs platforms 2 and 3.
Annexures
Annexures L to U cover the first 24 months and the planning models behind them.

Full chapters and annexures are in the members library
Members library: Members can read every chapter. Some planning annexures have restricted access. Until the members app is online, Members login takes you to our Contact page.
How each chapter is written
Every chapter follows the same template
So that any reader can find the same things in the same place, each chapter has:
- A number, a theme and a short overview
- The key questions it answers
- Its main findings
- Its architecture, tables and evidence, with each fact marked as checked, "to verify" or illustrative
- Links to related chapters and annexures
- A members-only full text and chapter pack
How knowledge links up
From a product to what we learn
Each record is linked to the next, so a question about one product can be traced all the way through.
| Step | What it links |
|---|---|
| Product | The board or package a customer needs |
| Technology | The process that makes it |
| Platform | Which of the eight platforms it belongs to |
| Chapter and annexure | Where the plan and its evidence are written |
| Programme and project | The work that delivers it |
| Capability | The skills and equipment it needs |
| Engineering and manufacturing | How it is designed and built |
| Technical service | How it is supported after delivery |
| Knowledge | What we learn, fed back into the next product |
