Along with recent progress and popularization of information technology, social sciences have been experiencing great advances in survey methodology. It has become possible for researchers to utilize huge social data with computers. However, there have been only conceptual studies in business school and few quantitative studies about enterprise organizations. In a survey of an enterprise, we evaluated strategic organization changes with graph/network analysis of the communication network constructed from email transaction data. Moreover, there is strong business needs to know how activities change according to an organization transformation. Utilizing the agent-based approach, we have constructed a dynamic model and simulation of communication over an organization structure. The result of the simulation indicates the power distribution for link degrees which is also observed in the real world as universal characteristics of the scale-free network. %@ 0-7803-9519-0
