Field operations management and project management, while interconnected, serve distinct functions within an organisation. Field operations management focuses on the daily management of tasks and activities conducted outside of the office environment, emphasising scheduling, dispatching field technicians, work order management, resource allocation, and quality control to ensure efficient service delivery and customer satisfaction. Project management is broader, encompassing the planning, initiation, execution, monitoring, and closing of projects within set deadlines and budgets. It involves setting goals, allocating resources, and managing teams to achieve project objectives, overseeing projects from start to finish, including tasks that may not necessarily be field-related.
