Here, we introduce additional coalescence factors for the production of strange baryons in a multiphase transport (AMPT) model in order to describe the enhanced production of multistrange hadrons observed in Pb + Pb collisions at $$\sqrt{s_{NN}}$$ = 2.76 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and Au + Au collisions at $$\sqrt{s_{NN}}$$ = 200 GeV at Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC). This extended AMPT model is found to also give a reasonable description of the multiplicity dependence of the strangeness enhancement observed in high multiplicity events in $$\textit{pp}$$ collisions at $$\sqrt{s}$$ = 7 TeV and $$\textit{p}$$-Pb collisions at $$\sqrt{s_{NN}}$$ = 5.02 TeV. We find that the coalescence factors depend on the system size but not much on whether the system is produced from A + A or $$\textit{p}$$ + A collisions. Here, the extended AMPT model thus provides a convenient way to model the mechanism underlying the observed strangeness enhancement in collisions of both small and large systems at RHIC and LHC energies.
