Abstract
As Herbert Simon said, the essence of Engineering is the practice of Design. So also, the essence of Organizational Engineering is the practice of Organizational Design. A science underlying Organizational Engineering would have laws that all organizations should obey or satisfy. From such a science, we could cull out principles that could be used to assert the soundness of an organization which could guide the design process in producing feasible solutions. Organizations themselves are designed to exhibit worthwhile properties or characteristics. In this paper we explore principles that assert the soundness of organizations that result from every design cycle. The principles that we are concerned with relate to organization´s Function, Responsibility and Evolution.
