Operations management
is the set of managerial activities used by
an organization to transform resource inputs into products and services. When
Hewlett-Packard buys electronic components, assembles them into PCs, and then
ships them to customers, it is engaging in operations management. When a Domi-
no’s employee orders food ingredients and paper products and then combines
dough, cheese, and tomato sauce to create a pizza, he or she is engaging in operations
management.
The Importance of Operations
Operations is an important functional concern for organizations because efficient and
effective management of operations goes a long way toward ensuring competitiveness
and overall organizational performance, as well as quality and productivity. Inefficient
or ineffective operations management, on the other hand, will almost inevitably lead to
poorer performance and lower levels of both quality and productivity.
In an economic sense, operations management creates value and utility of one
type or another, depending on the nature of the firm’s products or services. If the
product is a physical good, such as a Honda motorcycle, operations creates value
and provides form utility by combining many dissimilar inputs (sheet metal, rubber,
paint, internal combustion engines, and human skills) to make something (a motorcycle)
that is more valuable than the actual cost of the inputs used to create it. The inputs
are converted from their incoming form into a new physical form. This conversion is
typical of manufacturing operations and essentially reflects the organization’s
technology.

In contrast, the operations activities of Delta Airlines create value and provide time
and place utility through its services. The airline transports passengers and freight
according to agreed-upon departure and arrival places and times. Other service opera-
tions, such as a Budweiser beer distributorship or an American Eagle retail store, create
value and provide place and possession utility by bringing together the customer and
products made by others. Although the organizations in these examples produce differ-
ent kinds of products or services, their operations processes share many important
features.
