This chapter covers the main functions and roles of operational management. In particular, problems related to the organization of the production process, including its continuous improvement, were raised. In addition, the role of resource management in an enterprise was discussed along with tools for optimizing resource allocation. The issues related to purchasing management, its changing importance over the last years, tasks and methods of organization were also described. The concept of production capacity was explained, as well as the methods of analysing production processes aimed at maximizing efficiency. The importance of inter-organizational cooperation, both in static and dynamic terms, was also outlined, with particular emphasis on barriers and benefits.

This paper reports a second-order structural equation model composed of four variables: the green attributes before and after an industrial production process, the operating benefits, the commercial benefits, and the economic benefits. The variables are related by means of five hypotheses and are validated statistically with information obtained from 559 responses to a questionnaire applied to the Mexican maquila industry. The model is evaluated using the technique of partial least squares and the results obtained indicate that the green attributes before and after the production process have a direct and positive effect on the obtained benefits, mostly on the operational ones. It is concluded that companies that are focused on increasing their greenness level must monitor and evaluate the existence of green attributes in their production process to guarantee benefits and make fast decisions if required due to deviations.

The author, head of the Association of science-intensive enterprises having great experience in exploration of oil, precious metals, etc. in Russia and abroad (Austria, China, Israel, Ethiopia), first implemented on an industrial scale deep processing of oil using domestic technology, discusses the problems of further development of the Russian economy through the prism of their solutions to the main industries — oil and petrochemical complex.


Technology united with research and development has evolved as a grave differentiator of the agriculture sector in India including production, processing, and agriculture packing and marketing of given crops. Near about 50 percent of the Indian workforce was engaged in the agriculture sector but its share in GDP was only 14 percent, much lower in comparison to former. Though, certain agriculture items showed a steady annual increase in terms of kilograms per hectare. Agriculture transformed significantly over the past few decades but when it comes to investment in research and development there is a lot more which needs to be done. The paper analyzes the role of various research and development institutions in boosting the growth of the agriculture sector that helps in attaining sustainable agriculture development and self-sufficiency in the production process since independence. It also focusesed on the various issues faced by these development institutions. The findings unveiled that since independence a lot more was done to boost the research and development in the agriculture sector at both the center and state levels but a proper implementation of these policies along with transparency could bring more desirable outcomes than were gained at present.
