• Organizations may or may not be project based.
• Those that are not project based;– Usually lack management systems
necessary for efficient and effective project management.
8CS-413
Common Organizational Structures
• Functional Organization Stucture• Projectized Organization Stucture • Matrix Organization Stucture
9CS-413
Functional Organization Stucture
• A traditional hierarchical organization (like a pyramid) with; – Top management at the peak, – Direct workers at the bottom, – And middle managers in between.

Functional Organization Stucture
• Each employee has;– One clearly designated supervisor.
• Employees are grouped by their specialization such as;– Accounting, marketing, information systems,
and manufacturing.
11CS-413
Functional Organization Stucture
• People within different functional areas work separately on different parts of the project.
• One group takes their part of the project, – Edits it, and
• Throws it to the next group.• In IT projects, because of weak coordination
between departments, • This structure causes more work for
everybody, • Results with a product less than what it
could be.
12CS-413
Projectized Organization Stucture
• At the other extreme.• A structure where people from different
functional backgrounds work together through life time of a project.

• In IT projects, – Because of weak coordination in project
groups, • Experienced personnel, possibly
required for multiple projects, are not effectively used among projects.
14CS-413
Matrix Organization Stucture
• In the middle spectrum.• A structure that typically crosses;
– Functional design on one axis and – Some other design characteristic (e.g.
project managers) on the other axis.

Matrix Organization Stucture
• Project staffs are designated to more than one supervisor; – Report to both;
• Project managers and • Head of their functional areas.
16CS-413
Types of Matrix Stuctures
• Weak matrix structures • Strong matrix structures
17CS-413
Weak matrix structures
• More near to functional organizations.• Project managers;
– Have less authority on projects, – Act like as coordinators than as
independent managers.
18CS-413
Strong matrix structures
• More near to Projectized organizations.• Project managers are dedicated to projects
with full authority.
19CS-413
Strong matrix structures
• More difficult to manage a matrix organization.
20CS-413
Project Management Office (PMO)
• An organizational unit created;– To centralize and coordinate the projects
within an organization.• Matrix structures often have a PMO.• Projectized structures almost always have a
PMO.
