An organizational chart lists all the functions
within a company and establishes relationships between these functions.
Use of an organizational chart addresses the requirement of the element
5.5.1 of ISO 9001:2000 standard, Responsibility and authority. This
element requires an organization to define “…responsibilities and
authorities …” within the organization. There are a number of formats
used for this purpose.
One of the most typical formats for an organizational chart is a block
diagram. The blocks are arranged in the hierarchical structure showing
reporting relationships of company’s functions and personnel. One of the
most visual formats is a pictorial organizational chart. If you have
access to a digital camera and color printers, this may be the way to
go. These charts are very easy to remember and use. A sample of this
type of organizational chart is shown below.
Another format of an organizational chart may be
as simple as a list similar to your hard drive directory structure shown
below. The benefits of this chart are a simple text format without
time-consuming photos or block diagrams. Our Documentation System Sets
include both templates: pictorial and a list Organizational Chart.
