A Slateo board from the Operations Team template: SOPs moving through Draft, In Review, Approved and Deprecated, with workstreams for vendor management, compliance and team coordination.

What is in the Operations Team template?

Last updated:

The Operations Team template creates a project with 4 workstreams: Processes & SOPs, Vendor Management, Compliance and Team Coordination. Each workstream has its own stages: Processes & SOPs, for example, runs Draft → In Review → Approved. Built for operations teams, and every stage can be renamed, removed or given rules once you're in.

Make it yours

Change any stage once you are in

Rename a stage, add a new one, or change its type. Add entry conditions, like a due date before review, and require an approval before work moves into a stage.

Set up stages, rules and approvals →
Edit Stage in Slateo: stage name, stage type, two entry conditions and required approvers.
