Explanation

In a projectized organizational structure, team members are assigned full-time to a project and are released (offboarded) when the project ends. This gives team members clear visibility into when they will be finished, allowing them to plan their next assignments. In a functional structure (D), employees return to their department. In weak (A) and strong (C) matrix structures, employees are shared between the project and functional departments, creating ambiguity about end dates. The projectized structure best matches the scenario of clear offboarding timelines.
