Operations Plan
The operations plan is closely tied to the team and
management plan section of a business plan. An operations
plan is the engine that runs the machine you call a business.
Without an operations plan, nothing else in your business
plan will get done. The operations section of a business plan
created to obtain bank financing or some other external
purpose does not require the details to go into a plan that will
guide ownership and management in running the business.
This section should be crammed with details and instructions
to direct people within the business’s day-to-day operations.
The personnel covered in the team and management plan
section of a business plan should refer to the operations plan
to carry out the strategies and tasks needed to run the
business.
An effective way of including an operations plan when writing
a business plan is to combine it into a single section entitled
“Operations and Management Plan.” Writing the section
begins with creating an organization chart showing each
business member’s title, duties and responsibilities, and
supervisory role.
