OPERATION AND PRODUCTION
MANAGEMENT
Definition:
Operations management is an area of management concerned with overseeing,
designing, controlling the process of production and redesigning business operations in the production of goods
and/or services. It involves the responsibility of ensuring that business operations are efficient in terms of using
as few resources as needed, and effective in terms of meeting customer requirements. It is concerned with
managing the process that converts inputs (in the forms of materials, labor, and energy) into outputs (in the
form of goods and/or services). The relationship of operations management to senior management in
commercial contexts can be compared to the relationship of line officers to highest-level senior officers
in military science. The highest-level officers shape the strategy and revise it over time, while the line officers
make tactical decisions in support of carrying out the strategy. In business as in military affairs, the boundaries
between levels are not always distinct; tactical information dynamically informs strategy, and individual people
often move between roles over time.
