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.
