BE2306 Lecture Series - 2008, Department of Building Economics, University of Moratuwa
1-Advantages Maximum flexibility in the use of staff People can be switched back and forth between different projects within the functional unit Full access to technical knowledge resided within the functional unit Functional unit serves as the base of continuity and consistency in policies, practices and procedures Contains the normal path of individual advancement BE2306 Lecture Series - 2008, Department of Building Economics, University of Moratuwa 1-Disadvantages Project is not the main focus as functional unit has its own work to do, thus less motivation Not problem-oriented rather function-oriented No individual is given full responsibility for the project Poor and slow response to client needs Does not facilitate a holistic approach to project – designed as a totality BE2306 Lecture Series - 2008, Department of Building Economics, University of Moratuwa 2- Pure project organisation Project is separated from the rest of the organisation A self-contained unit with its own staff and administration, while tied to the parent organisation by periodic progress reports and supervision

3-Example
BE2306 Lecture Series - 2008, Department of Building Economics, University of Moratuwa
3-Advantages Project manager takes the responsibility for managing the project The project has reasonable access to knowledge resided in all functional divisions Less anxiety after project completion Flexible and rapid response to both client and parent firm Access to admin. units, therefore,consistency in policies, practices and procedures Allows better company-wide balance of resources in case of several parallel projects BE2306 Lecture Series - 2008, Department of Building Economics, University of Moratuwa 3-Disadvantages Since the power is balanced between project manager and the functional manager, doubts can exist about who is in-charge of what Generally PM takes administrative control while Functional manager takes technological control Violate unity of command
PMs may focus on individual projects rather
than the total system that optimises organisation-wide goals
