The document discusses designing teams and processes to adapt to changing needs. It recommends structuring teams so members can work within their competencies and across projects fluidly with clear roles and expectations. The design process should support the team and their work, and be flexible enough to change with team, organization, and project needs. An effective team culture builds an environment where members feel free to be themselves, voice opinions, and feel supported.

The document discusses cost management systems and activity-based costing. It begins by defining a cost management system as a collection of tools that identify how management decisions affect costs. It then explains that cost accounting measures costs for management decision making and financial reporting. Costs are accumulated by classification and allocated to cost objects. The document contrasts traditional cost accounting with activity-based costing, which provides more granular cost data by tracing costs to activities and their cost drivers. It outlines the key steps to design and implement an activity-based costing system, which includes determining activities and costs, mapping processes, collecting cost data, and calculating new cost information.
