A simple explanatory organisational chart for a manufacturer, incorporating upstream/downstream strategic planning and costing. This organisation has six departments, flatly organised (all at the same level), that describe the full manufacturing and distribution process, with a focus on the manufacturing department. The GM, the company secretary and the treasurer all sit on the board and service all the departments. There are two departments upstream from the manufacturing department and three departments downstream. There are three simple temporal periods for planning and control - short term, medium term and long term, and key words for each period describe the key decisions that need to be made in each period. Short term decisions are downstream, medium term decisions are focal, and long term decisions involve everyone. The accounting and reporting will line up with these three periods and are cleanly separated by department. (International planning presentation)
