I also agree with what has been said about the success of organizational structure. I believe it can be applied to any type of project and works great for medical device development. The culture this type of structure brings is an environment that is welcoming and encourages everyone’s success. The chances of success are very high since there is this constant communication not only to those on the project, but communication within each department. With an organizational structure:

1. There is a constant encouragement/push to complete your part of a project since all other departments depend on your work to complete their work.

2. Having the ability to work with your department gives you quick access to helpful resources when you need it and can get beneficial advice from your department AND those from other departments working on your project.

3. Because of the need to work with one another, this structure creates welcoming environment and culture.
