Strategic operations officer

The Strategic Operations officer (or StratOps) is part of the command staff aboard Federation starbases and other Starfleet installations or vessels, especially during wartime.

The duties of the Strategic Operations officer include preparing the ship or station for the outbreak of conflict, liaising with Starfleet Command and allied commands to obtain strategic and tactical data, handling logistical matters, summarizing intelligence reports for fellow officers, and similar functions. The Strategic Operations officer can also double as intelligence officer if none is assigned.

The Strategic Operations department acts as an advisory to the command staff, responsible for coordinating all Starfleet and allied assets in within their designated area of space, as well as tactical analysis (in the absence of a dedicated tactical department) and intelligence gathering (in the absence of a dedicated intelligence department).
