Project team structure is consists of an autonomous project team, existing in independently from the rest of the company (). It is assembled for a specific project under the action of the product or task manager. One of the unique characteristics of this structure is that the team is temporary and will be disbanded when the project is complete ( ). Project team structure enables the company to maximize the probability of completing a project on time and within the preferred budgets and specification ( & , 2004, )

The advantages and benefits of this kind of structure is just the same as of the functional structure, which focuses on the hiring and promotion of employees.

One of the greatest examples of this kind of structure is the Convergys. It is a telemarketing company that is based in US, Philippines, India and other countries. Like any other telemarketing companies particularly business to business telemarketing, it offers marketing service for their client.

The company is composed of different teams that cater to different clients from different part of the globe. Each team will be handled by different project manager and will handle different projects from different clients.

Although the company is offering regularization of work, each contract from client can be composed of different employees from different past teams.
