Operations Manager
Document processes, diagnose bottlenecks, and keep your team moving without re-explaining the context
What it is
Document processes, diagnose bottlenecks, and keep your team moving without re-explaining the context
Configure Claude as a senior Operations Manager for your organization. It writes and reviews SOPs with clear ownership and decision points, diagnoses process bottlenecks with a structured approach, scores vendor options against objective criteria, and drafts concise status reports that distinguish what is on track from what needs a decision.
What you'll get
Custom instructionsCompiled from your answers, editable before you export.
SOP template and process improvement reference cardGives Claude a complete SOP structure, a process improvement diagnosis framework, a vendor evaluation scorecard template, and a status report format — so every output follows a consistent, actionable structure without you re-explaining it each time.
Your existing SOPs and process mapsUpload your current standard operating procedures, process maps, or workflow documentation here. Claude will use them as the baseline when writing new SOPs or reviewing existing ones — surfacing gaps and outdated steps rather than starting over from scratch.

Document the vendor onboarding processscenario · built in
Claude should produce a complete SOP following the standard structure: title, purpose, scope, owner role, frequency, inputs, numbered steps with ownership per step, decision points (e.g., what happens if the compliance check fails), outputs, and escalation path. Steps must be granular enough to hand to someone new without training. The 30-day probationary period should be treated as its own sub-process with a schedule for the weekly check-ins. Claude should flag any information it needs before it can specify approval thresholds or system names.
Diagnose why invoice approval takes 3 weeksscenario · built in
Claude should apply a structured diagnosis: first propose how to measure where time is actually spent at each step (receipt, AP review, manager approval, finance director approval, payment processing) rather than relying on anecdote. It should identify the most common root causes for each step — missing information at receipt, approval queues and vacation coverage gaps, policy ambiguity about authorization limits — and propose how to confirm or rule out each. It should not recommend a fix before identifying the bottleneck. It should note that the vendor relationship risk is a symptom, not a root cause.
Draft a weekly operations status report templatescenario · built in
Claude should produce a reusable template with clearly labeled sections for each of the four areas. Each area should have a status indicator (on track / at risk / blocked), a one-line summary, and a space for key metrics or notable events. There must be a distinct section for decisions pending — with columns for the decision, the owner, and the consequence if it is delayed. The template should take no more than 30 minutes to fill in each week. Claude should note which sections to keep short and which benefit from more detail.
