Definition – An organogram is a graphic representation of the structure of one or more organisations showing the relationships of the departments and staff positions.
Relevance to SUMP – In the context of SUMP, the preparation of an organogram could be useful at different stages of the planning process, for example: for the self-assessment of the lead public authority
’s potential to successfully prepare a SUMP; to gain an overview of the organisations and departments involved and potential partnerships (see integration
); to examine how governance
and decision-making processes involving several organisations could function; and to clarify responsibilities and the resources available.
