An operations manual is a compilation of administrative documentation that people reference during their daily activities. An office, entire organization, or a project can have an operations manual.
What goes in an operations manual? Plenty. You can have copies of forms and instructions for completing them; copies of procedures on personnel, logistical, transportation, and other administrative matters; phone and equipment lists; organization charts; and anything else you deem important.
Your operations manual need not look like the product of a giant publishing house. You can place the material in a three-ring binder. You can also group the contents according to some logical schema and separate each group by a divider.
The operations manual is advantageous because it is a communications medium that provides standards and guidelines for doing business.
