From the Paper:

"The business structure of Boeing is a successful design for this company because each division supports one another, but is distinct enough from each other to carry out the important functions required of each unit. This type of design is appropriate for carrying our any diversification strategy because as the company acquires new business opportunities, each new opportunity is capable of fitting somewhere in the business structure, while simultaneously supporting the other parts of the company. Finally, Boeing has survived as a strong competitive company in the aerospace industry as a result of the company's diversification strategy that it has implemented over the years, as well as its ability to successfully acquire other companies and merge with other companies. Other businesses would be well-advised to follow the diversification strategies of Boeing in order to be as successful as Boeing has consistently been over the years. The future of Boeing appears very bright, as long as these same strategies and standards are consistently met."
