# Accelerators and Initiatives

Initiatives are the actionable engagements and work streams that support your digital transformation. Impact Accelerators are fixed-scope offerings with experts behind each option to provide value exactly where you need it.

Accelerators and initiatives are shared between the Impact store app and Impact Delivery Instance \(IDI\). There may be differences in navigation when accessing Accelerators and initiatives between the platforms.

**Note:** Contact your admin for upgrades to the latest Impact Store content app, so you can access all available Accelerators and initiatives in accordance to your package entitlement.

## Overview of Initiatives

Your Impact squad recommends Initiatives that are right for you, typically shared by you and your squad.

-   **Your initiatives**: Initiatives that are delivered as part of your package entitlement
-   **Initiatives roadmap**: Captures the work that other teams are doing in a consolidated view of all workstream initiatives that are underway

</table>## Accelerator Recommendations

When requesting an Accelerator, in addition to the sub-catalog, Accelerators can also be sorted by recommendations. Accelerator recommendations are generated based on customer context using data gathered from product subscriptions, objectives, instance data, and peer comparisons. Some of the recommendations are generated by the Artificial Intelligence \(AI\) engine, while the Impact squad manually recommends others. See [Request an Accelerator from IDI](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/impact/request-accelerator.md) for additional information for engaging Accelerators in the IDI and see [Request an Accelerator](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/impact/accelerator-and-initiative-list/accelerators.md) for the Impact Store Application
