When This Department Weakens
What happens when operations breaks down
Jobs arrive on the schedule without being properly prepared. The wrong tech gets dispatched. Materials are not pre-staged. Rework becomes a cost center no one tracks. The business gets busier but margin shrinks because execution chaos scales with volume.
The Systems Goal
What strong operations systems look like
Scope QC, routing and scheduling discipline, capacity planning, workflow prioritization, and cross-department feedback loops that ensure sold work and executable work are the same thing.
