Moving to a Divisional Structure
The structure adopted to solve the control problems of functional structures
(many kinds of products,many different locations,
many types of clients)
is the divisional structure.

Organizational Theory
Divisional structure—a structure in which functions are groupedtogether accordingto the specific demands of products,markets, or customers.The type of divisional structure selected
is driven by the specific type of control problem experienced.

Organizational Theory
Divisional Structure I: Three Kinds ofProduct Structure
A product structure is a divisional structurein which products are grouped into separate divisions, according to theirsimilarities or differences.
There are three different types of product structures seen in organizations.

Product Division Structure—a structure in which centralized support functions service the needs of a number of different product lines.
Typically used by organizations whose products are broadly similar and aimed at the same market.

Typically used by an organization whose products are very different and that operates in several different industries.

Divisional Structure II: Geographic Structure
When an organization experiences control problems that are a function of geography, a geographic divisional structure is used.
Such a structure organizes divisions according to the requirements of different locations.

Organizational Theory
A recent innovation in organizational architecture is the use of network structures.
A network structure is a cluster of different organizations whose actions are coordinated by contracts and agreementsrather than through a formal hierarchy.

Organizational Theory
Network structures often result from outsourcing.
Outsourcing is the process of moving activities that were previously performed inside the organization to the outside (where they are done by other companies).
