daily activities that create value; typically, in order to earn a profit).
Operations is one of the primary functions of a business, alongside the likes of
marketing or finance.

Here’s an example from the car industry: The material, metal in this case, is
supposed to be reshaped by a machine. This machine, a press in our example, is
operated by a machine operator.
The metal thus becomes, through the transformation process, a finished component
which is assembled on a car as the output of this process.

resorces , transformation , sytems and value addition

The defination ofo the operstion management contains the cocepts such as
resoures ,system transformaiton and value addition activites etc. a brief
explanation about such words is given below..

1. Resources Resources are in the forms of the human, material and capital inputs.
Human resources are the key resources of an organization. By using the intellectual
capabilities of people, managers can multiply the value of their employees.
Material resources are the physical inputs, which are needed for production

2.transformation :-
What is operations management transformation process?
Operations management transforms inputs (labor, capital, equipment, land,
buildings, materials, and information) into outputs (goods and services) that
provide added value to customers. All organizations must strive to maximize the
quality of their transformation processes to meet customer needs.

What are the types of transformation process in operations management?


There are also listed six types of transformational change that occur within
processes:

objectives. The business systems are subsystem of large social systems. Business
system contains subsystem such as personnel, engineering, finance and operations.
The ability of any system to achieve its objective depends on its design and
control mechanism. System design is a predetermined arrangement of components. It
establishes the relationships between inputs, transformation activities and outputs
in order to achieve the system objectives. System control consists of all actions
necessary to ensure that activities conform to preconceived plans.

4.. Productivity The objective of combining resources is to transform the inputs


into goods and services having a higher value than the original inputs. The
effectiveness of the production factors in the transformation process is known as
productivity. The productivity refers to the ratio between values of output per
work hour to the cost of inputs.

5..value addition
the value addition to an input can be done in the following ways they are mentioned
below
A.alteration
it refers to the trnsformation of the state of input. This transformation can be
physical change inn the input to produce goods
B. transportation

C.storage
it refers to preservig goods in protected environent
D.inspection
it refers to the verification of confirmation towards the requiremnent of an
entity.

all the above activites in one way or another are making a prduct more useful/the
opersations managers have the prime responsibility for processing inputes into
outputs. They must bring together the materials, capacity annd knowledge availble
