Standard operating procedure (SOP)

What is a Standard Operating Procedure?
A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is a documented set of step-by-step instructions created by an organization to help workers carry out routine operations. The purpose of an SOP is to ensure consistency and quality in the performance of specific functions by providing detailed guidelines that must be followed. SOPs are essential for maintaining safety, efficiency, and compliance with regulatory requirements.
