Reorganizations are costly affairs, and they must be justified. So they are carried out according to the stated "optimization" goal. The "optimization goal" can be different each time. Some typical "optimization goals" are:

1. Cut costs by removing redundancies or combine overlapping positions.
2. Improve / streamline business processes by putting groups that need to cooperate closer together in the org chart.
3. Remove levels of management or combine groups to concentrate decision-making to a smaller group. (Make the organization more agile and responsive to a changing environment.)
4. Redistribute staff to optimize some desired performance metric such as "customer service" and "customer intimacy."
5. Ouster certain recalcitrant managers by making their position redundant, distributing responsibilities among other managers.

6. Add groups or business functions to implement a new business venture, expand market to new countries, or increase competitiveness.

If your department has only been reorganized twice, it must be in a very static and stable business. I have been in some organizations that do major reorgs every year!
