Matrix Structure •

Boeing uses the Matrix structure to runs its organization. - Different divisions run independently due to the diversity of Boeing’s products. - Boeing is an organization that has constant changes in technology, which means that collaboration amongst the divisions is essential for success. - Boeing is a network organization with independent, single-function firms that collaborate on a good or service. - Resource utilization is efficient because key resources are shared across several important programs or products at the same time.
