Operations and Projects always fight tooth and nail to bridge the gap you need to establish a committee  of like minded employees who will update with latest happenings. Output of one department is the input of another hence the dependency is very much there. If flow of information is smooth90 % of the bridge work is already done, ERP system is one of the solution to minimize this gap .

operation managers are one of the major stakeholders which should be identified and manage all the time of project . after finishing project the deleverages must be delivered and project documents as well.

since in all stages the operation needs are considered, major differences in production and operation needs is not expected.

finally in the right time a responsible expert can handle the handover and preparing checklists and detailed MOM is very important.

Operation is a continuous process but Project is a temporary endeavor. It has a definite beginning and end

One is complimentary to the other, but there are multiple differences. What you develop through Projects, is what  Ops work on a daily basis. They key is to keep turning over the deliverables with focus on details and letting them know at each step the progress being made and subsequent timelines for the next deliverable.

I agree with "Pinar Genc" good communication is the key.

It can be quite simple actually. Clear communication and a good understanding of the operations teams expectations can solve this. One person in charge of handover documentation from the projects team can build raport and act as the facilitator between handover documentation and operations expectations. After all, operations do not get too deeply involved with the project team, they just want to be informed and be able to effectively / efficiently operate the asset.

I agree with Mr. Mohammed Asim answer. Thanks
