28 mins confidence: 
indeling Explanation: Omdat het gaat om verschillende indelingen (in tijd, locatie/gebied, proces, aantallen) kun je volgens mij niet anders dan de algemene term 'indeling' gebruiken. Het is volgens mij gewoon weer een oneigenlijk gebruik van een verwandte term, het zou eigenlijk iets als 'segmentation' moeten zijn. |

| Reference: departmentalization Reference information: What is departmentalization? Departmentalization, also referred to as departmentation, is the process of grouping teams or activities into departments or functions with specific objectives, goals, and outcomes to be achieved. It is a way of dividing an organization into separate parts (departments), each with its functions and responsibilities but all geared towards achieving the organization's overall goals. Every employee in a department either performs similar tasks and shares a common goal or works within a multidisciplinary department with varied skills. Coordination among these employees is important, as is the ability to hold employees accountable for their actions. What are the major forms of departmentalization? There are five main types of departmentalization, each with its own unique characteristics. The type of departmentalization used by an organization depends on its size, industry, and business model, while the criteria that are established are important to guide the grouping of activities into the various departments. 1. Functional departmentalization Functional departmentalization is the most common type of departmentalization. It groups together employees based on the functions they perform. The most common functional departments are finance, marketing, logistics, human resources, and operations. Since all activities are similar in nature, a functional department often has the opportunity to optimize efficiencies given the similar nature of the tasks performed. 2. Geographic departmentalization When an organization groups its employees based on the territory or geography they cover, it uses geographic departmentalization. This is common in organizations with widespread operations, such as retail chain stores, fast food restaurants, and banks. It helps managers effectively communicate with employees across different time zones and cultures. 3. Product departmentalization Product departmentalization groups together employees based on all activities related to developing, manufacturing, and delivering a product. This type of departmentalization ensures specialized knowledge and expertise in each product line. 4. Customer/market departmentalization Customer/market departmentalization is common in organizations that produce products or services for specific markets or customers. It helps managers better understand the needs and wants of their target market. Customer/market departmentalization is used when there is a great emphasis on efficient customer service and satisfaction. 5. Process departmentalization Process departmentalization is when an organization groups its activities by the production process. This is common in manufacturing and production companies where there is a need for coordination between different processes. Process departmentalization helps managers effectively monitor and control the product or service quality. https://www.aihr.com/hr-glossary/departmentalization/ Departmentalization by Time Departmentalization by time or time departmentalization is when the creation of departments is based on the working time such as morning shift, day shift, and night shift. It is done to provides flexible and timely service to the customers in order to increase their satisfaction level and also the employees. This time departmentation method is applicable in those organizations that involve in public utility production or service. Generally, hospitals, hotels, telecommunication, banks, and other public utility organizations which work around the clock form departments on the basis of time-shift such as day, evening, and night shifts. https://tyonote.com/departmentalization_by_time/#:~:text=Dep... |
