The interests of the organization
What are the interests of the organization? They vary somewhat according to the nature of the organization: a hospital's idea of what it's about is different from that of a regular for-profit business, for example. But regardless of the nature of your organization, it has, broadly speaking, two objectives:
To get the work done when it needs to be done, and to meet the needs of its clients
To maximize the value it gets for its expenditures, and to minimize those expenditures
