How many departments does the BMW have?

There are 3 main departments around which BMW, as a business is built. These are :-

1.) Region

2.) Customer &

3.) Product

The above 3 represent the core of their model , i.e. when they started as a boutique sports sedan manufacturer.

1.) Region is centric; it's 'Bavaria'.

2.) Customer is centric and represents the sport 'motoring' class; it's 'Motoren'

3.) Product represents their ongoing process in pursuit of Excellence; it stands for' Works'

All departments in BMW therefore fall under the above family of 'core' processes.
