Conditions of optimality of the divisional, the functional, and the matrix hierarchy of control

The model is considered of the multilevel hierarchical structure that controls a few “production lines” (sequential business-processes) with functional links by the kinds of performed operations. In the framework of the model many effects are investigated, which take place in practice, in particular, the dependence of optimality of the divisional, the functional, and the matrix hierarchy on the instability of the environment, the degree of standardization, the intensity of functional links, the horizontal and the vertical integration, etc.
