Mindmap

  • Operations are ongoing in nature.
  • Operations deliver standard products or services as output.
  • Operations are also constrained by limited resources of time, cost and scope.
  • Operations are managed by operations managers.

An operation is an ongoing, repetitive, and often standardized set of activities or processes aimed at maintaining the routine functions of an organization. Operations are typically characterized by their continuous nature and are essential for the day-to-day functioning of a business or entity.

Here are some examples of operations:

  1. Manufacturing Operation: The production line in a factory that produces automobiles.
  2. Customer Service Operation: The department within a company that handles customer inquiries and support.
  3. Retail Operation: The daily operations of a retail store, including stocking shelves, serving customers, and managing inventory.
  4. Financial Operation: The processes involved in managing finances, such as accounting, budgeting, and payroll.
