Organizational Design

PSE's Organizational Design service focuses on how to best design organizations that support people's use of technology within a work process. Our approach integrates people, the tasks they perform, and the technologies they use to support and motivate workers to do their best.

PSE designs organizations that promote a good fit between worker cognitive, perceptual, and physical characteristics and the technology they use. The payoff is enhanced organizational productivity, efficiency, product quality, and worker satisfaction.
