THE PLANNING, ORGANISING, LEADING AND CONTROL OF PROCUREMENT

to make decisions and take responsibility for the procurement activities under

their jurisdiction. Figure 3.3 depicts the divisional organisational structure.

3.4.5 MATRIX ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE

This type of organisational structure has horizontal and vertical lines of authority.

While the horizontal divisional lines ensure co-ordination across functional

departments, the vertical functional lines of authority ensure control inside functional

departments. Figure 3.4 is the organogram of the matrix organisational structure.
