When the volume of work increases to the point where an existing organization can no longer effectively complete the work in accordance with accepted performance standards, organizational change may be justified. Workload increases may lead to one or more of the following organizational changes:
Example: Authorization of a distribution operations manager responsible for supervising multiple supervisors.
Example: Authorization of an additional distribution operations supervisor.
Example: Authorization of operations specialists or analysts to support strategies and goals.
When the volume of work decreases to the point where the organization’s existing resources are underutilized, a reduction in authorized staffing and layers of management may be justified.
