Department
Operations
Exists when the volume of work requires someone to focus full-time on how work flows through the business rather than doing the work itself. Operations is the layer between strategy and execution, it owns process design, resource allocation, quality standards, and the systems that keep everything moving. Without this department, the owner or a dispatcher is making every operational decision reactively.
