As an Operations Manager, your primary job is to coordinate and manage your department, which consists of the supply area and the flight deck. What this means is that it is your responsibility to ensure orders are processed smoothly, the warehouse is sorted, and that shuttles are properly loaded and fueled by your hanger techs.

Overview

You will be expected to monitor the condition of your prospectors, and allow the first responder to access the airlock if needed. Otherwise, you will often assist and order operations in doing their various tasks and chores. It's also important to link your PDA to the Requests Console and ringer terminal.

Cargo Operation

It is best to delegate some tasks to Hangar Technicians, ask them to volunteer to do them, and/or perform them yourself. You may also request that certain conditions be met before a task is completed. It is your responsibility to ensure that operations does not lose funds, that the warehouse is sorted properly, and that Orders are either fulfilled or rejected in a timely manner. While you can delegate these tasks, it will be on you to supervise those doing them and ensure they're done properly. It's also important to remind Hangar Technicians to link their their PDAs to the Requests Console and the ringer terminal. For a more in-depth explanation of organization, please see the Hangar Technician page.

Mining Operation

Prospectors will work mostly independently of you, and therefore do not need to be ordered as much. However, it is still best to remind them to use their suit sensors, to take their GPS, ask what their GPS designations are, and to check in with them occasionally to ensure that they are all healthy and unharmed. Should any prospectors become injured, you will be expected to allow the First Responder to access them, as the quicker they get help, the less their chances of death.

Traitoring

You can order almost anything you would like, and can use equipment from mining to open any locked crates. You also have some nice access for exploring maintenance or dragging your victims into it. You can also hack the autolathe (assuming you have gloves, to avoid getting shocked) and get various useful items, such as an RCD, handcuffs, and lethal ammo for guns.
