Foreword: As the name indicates, Standard Operating Procedure is a set of Guidelines to be followed when the station is functioning normally. Breaching Standard Operating Procedure without a very good reason is grounds for demotion, at the discretion of the relevant Head of Staff. In addition, blindly following the letter of SOP while ignoring the context of the shift is a ridiculously bad idea. SOP is malleable if the situation requires it, and the genera well-being and proper functioning of the crew and station should not be sacrificed for the sake of rigorous adherence of SOP. Remember. context is king.

Nanotrasen has a standard set of procedures for crew personnel to follow when there is (or isn't) an emergency. This is to assure that all actions are in the best interest of Nanotrasen.
