PROBLEM
 Informal structure

 No development of an underlying planning structure

 Nobody had time to plan schedules or meetings

 No co-ordination of work among employees

 Flow of information was not there

 Lack of financial planning

 Unable to handle the increasing demand of customer

 Could not address all the technical assistance requests of customers

Which organizational structure to adapt?

Three structure options were available:
 Innovation Structure

 Functional structure
2
 Divisional Structure
CONTEXT
Circular Structure
Employees were not able to
relate to the circular
structure
New employees did not
understand how they were
meant to fit into the
organization
Completely geared towards
responsiveness, not towards
any form of planning
Employees didn’t know
whom to report
Lack of traditional
organizational charts
Employees were not
responding enthusiastically
Functional Structure
No clear vision on how
many distinct functional
teams should be created
Natural tendency to create
sub-functions within their
team
Organizational politics came
into existence
Organizational chart grew
vertically and horizontally
from time to time
Teams became polarized
Standards were set by
individuals rather than
company policy
Divisional structure
Resource allocation
problem was there
Divisions wanted control
over all their resources;
they did not want to share
resources
Little communication flow
across divisions, and
little cross-pollination of
ideas
Division wanted to use a
certain technical platform

ANALYSIS

We recommend Appex to use Divisional Organizational Structure because:

1. Tried and tested structure – Its effectiveness have been already proven
2. Improved accountability, budgeting and planning
3. Small organizational divisions ensures stable coordination between upper
and lower management.
4. These divisions would enable the employees to work with flexibility as
per their requirements
5. This structure would give them more time to form business strategies
