Matrix Structure within the Finance Department:

Under the matrix structure, specific finance personnel such as system-specific accountants report to two managers: the Controller for their functional role and system managers for their system-specific responsibilities. This dual-reporting structure is designed to optimize both functional expertise and system-specific knowledge.

System-Specific Accounting Teams

Each system, like Doringa, Camonea, and others within Kemedar, has its dedicated accounting team, which focuses on:

  • Financial operations specific to the system.
  • Budget management and cost analysis for the system.
  • Revenue recognition and financial reporting for the system.
  • Collaboration with system managers to align financial strategies with operational needs.

These accountants report functionally to the Controller for accounting standards and practices, and operationally to the respective system managers for day-to-day business relevance.
