Note: This page is merely a suggestion, much like the article concerning Space Law in general.

Under rewriting! The entirety of SOP is currently being rewritten as a initiative from the Manuel server. Please don't temper with anything in there for the time of rewriting.

The Standard Operating Procedures is a Nanotrasen-approved set of regulations on the station's operation, failure to comply with them might lead to a citation, arrest, or even demotion. As such SOP is to be followed at any time as the first course of actions SOP can be altered by the station Captain if they this it's appropriate for the current situation, as every situation is different and SOP wouldn't apply properly or harm the station.

As such this is the second most important document after the Space Law on a Nanotrasen station, as it tells the tasks every department or role carries, what right privileges it holds as well as instructing emergencies that will happen on the station. Remember that after getting your job position in the Nanotrasen corporation you agree on both SOP and Space Law! We are not responsible for any injuries you might get.

Department Operations

See also: Chain of Command

This section will tell every department task, right, and privilege it holds. Departments should run based on those regulations but be notified that the heads of them can alter them if it fits the situation station is facing. But it always must be known that the final word on everything is Captains.

Command Department

The command department is tasked with running everything on the station. The command department is taken by the department heads and Captain. Heads have their respective departments they need to run and oversee, while the Captain is acting as "head of heads" overseeing the departmental heads and making sure they don't slack off.

Department Heads

There are currently 6 department heads that can be assigned to the station, there is a list of them: Head of Personnel (HOP), Head of Security (HOS), Chief Engineer (CE), Chief Medical Officer (CMO), Research Director (RD), Quartermaster (QM). All of them have the same objectives in their mind, a CORPEN:

• Coordinating Staff - You are the one coordinating staff in departments. HOS needs to notify Security Officers of reported criminal activity, CMO to send Paramedics to retrieve dead bodies, CE order to fix the aftermaths of a gruesome bomb explosion, etc.
• Overseeing Departments - You need to make sure that their department is running smoothly and without any problems. They cannot allow people to slack off, commit crimes, disobey orders or be an active Enemy of the Corporation.
• Responding to Emergencies - You are the one who needs to handle emergencies using your department resources, depending on the emergency you will have to provide needed equipment (Science/Cargo) Structural Repair (Engineering) Threat Containment (Security), Medical Aid (Medical).
• Protecting Nanotrasen interests - You are the most loyal members of the crew to the Nanotrasen, it's in your interests to protect the Nanotrasen interests of plasma research and expansion. Although it should be noted that some heads might be traitors to the corporate, as such always have caution towards your superiors and co-heads.
• Elevating Staff Morale - You must keep your department staff happy, as an unhappy staff is unproductive and is prone to insubordination and riots. Always listen to what they say and keep good relations with them, do not abuse or threaten them. But always know the boundaries of what they can have.
• Nurturing Staff through Training - You must train the staff who are not fully professional in their job as most of Nanotrasen is staffed with interns. Make sure they understand what they should do and how, by doing so you avoid possible accidents and improve relations with your department.

As department head, you can perform certain actions normal crew members can't, as those are essential for your job.

Captain

After the department heads there is the Captain, the one overseeing those who oversee others. As Captain, your objectives are similar to the department head one's, but they do differ. As Captain, you follow a SHIELD:

• Staying vigilant - Your station is a
• Heeding the Chain of Command -
• Interacting with the crew -
• Exercising Authority -
• Listening to concerns and reports -
• Delegating tasks -
