Business operations refer to activities that businesses engage in daily to increase the value of the enterprise and earn a profit.
The activities can be optimized to generate sufficient revenues to cover expenses and earn a profit for the owners of the
business.
Business operations- The most important factors that influence an operation and thus, the final result of business operations is
represented by 4Ms: Manpower, Method, Machine, and Materials (Bao, 2019). The quality of these 4Ms will determine the
production of the business.
Every entrepreneur needs to recognize the needs and resources of the business. Failure to supply the required resources
might result in organizational failure.
For a production or manufacturing company to be successful, OM is a major unit that must first stand. Take an oil and gas
company, for example, the product has been discharged by ship to the reservoirs to be made available for a large number of
customers. OM sees to the effective delivery of the products; it provides plans and schedules what and how it must be done.
With OM, people achieve more, and productivity is increased.
