In the Integrated Modification Methodology (IMM), the role of a catalyst is pivotal.  Catalysts are the driving forces behind urban transformations, and they play a crucial role in reshaping the urban environment to align with sustainability and resilience goals.  
The Design Operative Principles (DOPs) in Integrated Modification Methodology (IMM) are a set of design principles that guide the development of sustainable and optimized design solutions. These principles are based on a system thinking approach and are designed to help designers and planners integrate different domains of engineering and balance different trade-offs to achieve optimal solutions that meet a wide range of performance criteria.
