The basic thesis of this article is that
organizations which design systems (in the
broad sense used here) are constrained to
produce designs which are copies of the
communication structures of these
organizations. We have seen that this fact
has important implications for the
management of system design. Primarily, we
have found a criterion for the structuring of
design organizations: a design effort should
be organized according to the need for
communication.
This criterion creates problems because the
need to communicate at any time depends
on the system concept in effect at that time.
Because the design which occurs first is
almost never the best possible, the
prevailing system concept may need to
change. Therefore, flexibility of organization
is important to effective design.
Ways must be found to reward design
managers for keeping their organizations
lean and flexible.</a></label><br><a href="https://social-cdn.vivaldi.net/system/media_attachments/files/114/496/439/615/029/011/original/eecdb0dccea55703.jpeg" rel="external">https://social-cdn.vivaldi.net/system/media_attachments/files/114/496/439/615/029/011/original/eecdb0dccea55703.jpeg</a></li><li><article><header><div>Domain not in remote thumbnail source whitelist: www.melconway.com</div><h5><a href="http://www.melconway.com/Home/Committees_Paper.html">Committees Paper</a></h5><div></div></header><div></div><footer></footer></article></li></ol></footer></blockquote>

in reply to
22/ It’s also important to point out that Conway himself argued, in this paper, the one from which this law is derived, for a flexible organization that can adapt to changing design and geared towards collaboration.
