A project manager is working on constructing a new bridge, but he is not getting enough project attention. Resources are occupied in doing process related work and the project manager has little authority to assign resources. What form of organization is the project being performed ?
Functional
Strong Matrix
Projectized
Weak Matrix
Which of A or D??
Organization form
Re: Organization form
Option # A i.e., Functional since the PM has LITTLE authority to assign the resources and they are already occupied in PROCESS related (not Project related) work.

Hi,
As far as I read, in Functional Orgs, PM DOESN'T have any authbority at all. So in that case shouldn't it be Weak Matrix? In WEAK matrix also the resources, get occupied in project as well as non-project work as they have to report to PM as well as Functional head.

hi ,
If you refer to Table 2-1 , Page # 22 , PMBOK5 , you will notice that in a FUNCTIONAL Organization the PM has LITTLE or NO authority at all.

I agree with Ranjit. There is a thin line and always such questions will try to test that
