Line 1: {{short description\|Set of detailed instructions to assist in workplace safety}} {{For\|the 2008 documentary film\|Standard Operating Procedure (film){{!}}''Standard Operating Procedure'' (film)}} A '''standard operating procedure''' ('''~~SOaP~~SOP''') is a set of step-by-step instructions compiled by an [[organization]] to help workers carry out routine operations. SOPs aim to achieve efficiency, quality output, and uniformity of performance, while reducing [[miscommunication]] and failure to comply with [[industry regulation]]s.{{citation needed\|date=November 2022}} Some [[military]] services (e.g., in the [[United States\|U.S.]] and the [[United Kingdom\|UK]]) use the term '''standing''' (rather than ''standard'') '''operating procedure''', since a military SOP refers to a unit's unique procedures, which are not necessarily standard to another unit. The word "standard" could suggest that only one (standard) procedure is to be used across all units.{{citation needed\|date=November 2022}}
