A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is a detailed set of instructions that guides employees through a specific task to achieve consistent results. SOPs are essential for maintaining quality, compliance, and operational efficiency — especially in regulated industries like healthcare, finance, and manufacturing. SOPs reduce process variability by up to 65% (WorkflowAutomation.net 2025) and improve compliance audit pass rates by 40% (Scribe.com 2025).
