Organizational Structure
Organizational structure is an enterprise environmental factor which can affect the availability of resources and influence how projects are conducted. There are three major types of organizational structures:
- Functional
- Matrix
- Projectized
Further, Matrix organizational structure can be subdivided in three types of structures:
- Weak Matrix
- Balance Matrix
- Strong Matrix
Based on the type of organizational structure project characteristics are changed. For example, in a Functional or Weak Matrix organizational structure, the Functional Manager controls the project budget; whereas, in a Strong Matrix or Projectized organizational structure, the Project Manager controls the budget.
