What sits behind it
Behind every node sits more than a box
Every organisational unit in the TAOM organisation model can be described in business terms and enriched with its operational context. Alongside structure and assignment, tasks, responsibilities, quality requirements, systems, outputs and controls are kept directly on the organisation object.
That turns an org chart into a living organisation model: you see not only who sits where, but also what a unit delivers, what it is accountable for, and which requirements apply to its work.
Two separate views, because these are two different questions: What does the unit do? and under what conditions is the result acceptable?
An example from the model above
Overview
Purpose
Create and maintain the technical conditions for operation.
Systems
SAP Fiori
Transactions
IW21 CAT2
Output
Technical report · system configuration
Under what conditions the result counts
Risks
incomplete master data · contradictory information · outdated technical specifications
Controls
Completeness · plausibility · version and status
Evidence
Test certificates · CoA · technical approvals
Release
Only once quality defects are resolved and the evidence is complete.
What the unit hangs on
People Roles RACI
Processes Systems Requirements
Decisions Knowledge Tests
If one of these connections changes, it takes effect where the work happens – not just in the picture.
Same model, different organisation
Because an organisational unit is an object in the digital twin and not a drawing, the same structure carries beyond a project as well:
Program Management → PMO → Streams → Teams
Management → Operations → Supply Chain → Production → Quality
Global Process Owner → Process Owner → Process Expert → Key User
People · external partners · AI workforce – in the same chain, with a human at the end.
