Operation Management and Support Training

Operations management involves planning, organizing and supervising processes and making necessary improvements for increased profitability.

Operations management covers sectors like banking systems, hospitals, companies, working with suppliers, customers and using technology. Operations is one of the major functions in an organization along with supply chains, marketing, finance and human resources. The operations function requires management of both the strategic and day-to-day production of goods and services.

Operations management used to be called production management. Historically, it  began with the division of production, starting with ancient craftsmen, but spreading more widely only by adding the concept of interchangeability of parts in the 18th century, ultimately sparking the industrial revolution.

This area of business advanced as the economies in the developed world gradually shifted to be service-based. That’s when all the corporate functions, including product management, started to integrate them. The service side also began its approach by applying product management principles to the planning and organizing of processes, to the point where it made more sense to call it operations management.

Today, operations management is generally considered a multidisciplinary functional area in a company, just like finance and marketing. The focus is on making sure the materials and labor, or any other input, is used in the most effective and efficient way possible within an organization – thus maximizing the output.

Operations managers need to be multitaskers. That’s because they are faced with multiple challenges, including:

  • Need to improve process quality — From keying errors to compliance issues, employee errors can come at a high cost to an organization, especially if you consistently notice similar errors by multiple users.
  • Staying on top of customer satisfaction — Investigating customer satisfaction and reporting any issues also falls on the shoulders of operations.
  • Concerns over productivity – Operations managers often find themselves in the hot seat to push employees to work faster and better.
  • Dealing with reporting – It’s not uncommon for operations managers to be responsible for corporate reporting, including the compilation of financial and performance data and the communication of this data to stakeholders.
  • Recruiting the right talent — A well-planned and well-executed onboarding process is critical.

The benefits of having an efficient operations manager are considerable. Effective operations managers apply ideas and technologies to increase productivity and reduce costs, improve flexibility to meet rapidly changing customer needs, shorten delivery time, enhance product quality and improve customer service.
