Operations Technology (OT)

Operations Technology is home to the things that allow a business or industry to continue to operate daily. The OT area houses Access Control, Building Automation, HVAC, Physical Security, and Engineering Technology Functions like design and design implementation. Depending on the company other functions and areas of focus may be considered part of their OT department, like: quality control, quality assurance, process improvement, inventory management, manufacturing, and management. (In other words some companies group anything to do with operations and operating under this heading.) For our purposes, we will focus on the things that fall under facilities maintenance and Engineering Technology functions.
