In the perspective of business, the definition or profile of administration can be changed. However, in a broader view, we can define administration as follows: Administration means to take care of all the business activities of an organization by controlling and optimizing manpower, machinery, and other related resources, by taking care of all legal and statutory compliances like labor laws, sales tax, etc. The various branches of administration are:

1. HR (it can be a bigger or individual department according to the workforce of an organization)
2. Accounts (...)
3. Security (not limited to gate, extended to manpower, machines including discipline)
4. Housekeeping (mostly it is clubbed with Security)
5. Maintenance (This can be further divided into Building, Machinery, IT as per organization requirements)
6. Purchase (in factories, this should be a different department from accounts)
7. Dispatch (as per individual organization needs).
