What the Department Does
Operations covers everything between a finished design and a customer opening a box. For Qubibyte that is the production plan for the Qubibyte Quadra, the parts and vendors behind it, the prepared sample vials that give the device its one to four qubits, testing before shipment, and the logistics of getting units and vials to universities, labs, and individual buyers.
The department works most closely with Technology, which hands it the design, and with Financial, which holds it to the Quadra's $800 target price.
