Opinions may vary. A project is time-bounded and is of special purpose to address certain requirements. On the other hand, the daily operations of an organization, as the words 'daily operations' implies, are regular functions and are not time-bounded except if the business ceases to operate.
A project is short-lived, i.e., it must be finished within a given schedule and budget while the organizational functions are continuous, i.e., it is lifetime until the organization ceases to operate.
Operative functions of personnel management involve tasks related to day-to-day operations, such as recruitment, selection, training, and performance appraisal. On the other hand, managerial functions focus on planning, organizing, coordinating, and controlling these operative activities to align with organizational goals and objectives. While operative functions deal with the execution of HR activities, managerial functions involve strategic decision-making and ensuring the effective utilization of human resources to drive organizational success.
Another name for an administration department is the "administrative services department." This department typically handles various organizational functions, including human resources, facilities management, and office support services. In some organizations, it may also be referred to as the "operations department" or "office management."
I believe that Production Management is a part of Operations Management. Operations is the bigger picture of various functions that affect the overall process and quality of an organizations services or manufacturing. Here is a definition of Operations Management that lists "production management" as a part of the whole. In business, all the different aspects of operations is typically overseen by the COO or Chief Operating Officer. Most people do not know what business operations entails because it tends to be a broader discipline. Unlike project management, which has defined completion to a task; operations management deals with processes, resource allocation, and quality to run the business day to day in an efficient and effective manner. APICS The Association for Operations Management also defines operations management as "the field of study that focuses on the effectively planning, scheduling, use, and control of a manufacturing or service organization through the study of concepts from design engineering, industrial engineering, management information systems, quality management, production management, inventory management, accounting, and other functions as they affect the organization".[1]
