Sumario:The Phase-2 upgrade of CMS, coupled with the projected performance of the HL-LHC, shows great promise in terms of discovery potential. However, the increased granularity of the CMS detector and the higher complexity of the collision events generated by the accelerator pose challenges in the areas of data acquisition, processing, simulation, and analysis. These challenges cannot be solved solely by increments in the computing resources available to CMS, but must be accompanied by major improvements of the computing model and computing software tools, as well as data processing software and common software tools. In this document we present aspects of our roadmap for those improvements, focusing on the plans to reduce storage and CPU needs as well as take advantage of heterogeneous platforms, such as the ones equipped with GPUs, and High Performance Computing Centers. We describe the most prominent research and development activities being carried out in the experiment, demonstrating their potential effectiveness in either mitigating risks or quantitatively reducing computing resource needs on the road to the HL-LHC. \textit{N.B. This document is based on the written response of the CMS experiment to the charge of the LHCC Computing Model Review round in November 2021 and has been minimally edited for content and presentation.}
