How About a Close to Real Life Case Study?
Before we dive into this topic, let us draw a multi org structure on a whiteboard. It would
help to analyze a real picture, as we pick at the concepts that go into designing a multi org
structure.
The above is the organization structure for Office Smart Solutions, which is a major office
supplies retailer, headquartered in Naperville, Illinois, USA. The organization operates in
three countries – the US, Canada and India.
Office Smart has an organization structure with the following:

3. · 2 Business Groups – one in the US, which controls the organization structure in
North America, and one in India
· 3 Legal Entities – one in the US, one in Canada, and one in India
· 3 Primary Ledgers – one in the US, one in Canada, and one in India
· 3 Operating Units – one in the US, one in Canada, and one in India
· 5 Inventory organizations – two in the US, one in Canada, and two in India
· Subinventories and locators exist beneath the inventory organizations, but they are
not relevant for the session on multi org structures.
With this, let us step back and reflect…
