Organizational Analysis
The Ministry of Home Affairs (MOHA), to
promote the institutional development of the Water Bureaus in Korea, desired
to engage a consultant to improve existing accounting procedures and to
introduce computer software for the microcomputers being installed

managerial software found in water utilities. The specialists conducted
analyses of organization and operations in selected water bureaus,
including: meter reading, water usage calculation, billing processes,
financial activities, inventory and fixed asset management, budget control
processes, and personnel management. Recommendations were developed for the
automation of accounting, financial, and management procedures. Suggestions
