Abstract :
This paper attempts to illustrate a different approach to creating organizational structure or developing a management model structure along the lines of operating systems, given the high degree of similarity between ICT architecture approaches and organizational needs. This paper discusses ICT approaches and focuses on the use of the hierarchical approach to create a management model structure and identifies how such a structure can be aligned to ensure the execution of the end functions for which the system was initially built to deliver. The paper uses the structure of Egypt Post´s ICT department as an example to illustrate the validity of the concept.
