Since our company specializes in outside contracts, we use a “strong matrix”
organization and are able to assemble the necessary resources underneath the project
manager where they are utilized as necessary. The external structure of the companies
having interest in the project is as shown in the following organizational chart. While the
external organization chart suggests “functional” organization, this is for grouping
purposes only. The manager of each group is responsible for administration of and
dissemination of general organizational information to his/her group, but does not enjoy a
strong reporting relationship with group members.
The external organization chart which shows these relationships is included in Appendix
C.
The “functional” managers will not incur any direct costs to the project; any
administrative costs are integrated into the per-hour cost of the individual resources.
