The Concept of Operations should be a document available, and relevant, to all stakeholders in the system, no matter what their background or role within the system. In the context of a TMS, it should be as readable and relevant to high-level decision makers as it is to the TMS manager as it is to the TMS operator. The Concept of Operations answers the who, what, when, where, why, and how for the new or existing system.
