Thinking about Operations...

I backed into thinking about "Operations" as an odd sort of afterthought regarding another design issue...

see link here http://jfdblog.blogspot.com/2005/03/living-historyand-stage-set-design.html from my other blog...

It occurred to me that Operations is treated as an afterthought all too often...

We design every aspect of a facility...do we evaluate it's operation as carefully?

We estimate facility costs in great detail...do we estimate operation costs?

I wonder if our clients could benefit from this type of information?...I think our clients could benefit from a sharper focus on Operations...
