Its officers are also responsible for coordinating all Starfleet and allied assets within the Trinity Sector, the Serellen Sector and the Jenatris Cloud Sector.

Assignment and jurisdiction
The starbase can have hundreds of starships and installations under its jurisdiction at any given time. STRAT-OPS primary duties are to coordinate all Starfleet activity within the sectors, especially in times of war, coordinating closely with StarBase 118's intelligence and tactical divisions, as well as Fleet Operations.
Administrative location
The primary administrative location for STRAT-OPS is Command Tower 3, located in the Command Towers area of StarBase 118. It is referred to as "Strategic Operations Command" (STRAT-OPS COM).
The Strategic Operations Department is nothing if not impressive. Most activity takes place in the StratOps Control Center, otherwise known as "the center" to its main occupants.
Strategic Operations Control Center
The Strategic Operations Control Center, or "the Center", is housed in a large edifice that encompasses three of the fifteen utilized decks by StratOps in tower three. It includes numerous, contiguous gesture interfaces (HMI), and interactive holographic kiosks around the massive circular area. Using these technologies, input devices and touch screens are not needed. Surfaces can be transparent or with a simple vocal or gestured command, transformed into a one-way open interface. The location of every Starfleet and allied vessel and installation is detailed, updates occurring instantaneously. Officers merely need to use hand gestures to open and close files, merge and link data, and drag information from one interface to another. Gesture commands are preferred over vocal commands, as the Center is busy, dozens of officers operating within it at any given time.
Lt. Guy Perry Hunt's Office
Guy Hunt's office overlooks the Center. It is situated at the top of a set of transparent, blue lighted steps, unless at red alert then they pules in a low red light. His office has an unobstructed view of everything taking place in the hub below. But he also has the option of making the window one way, so he can see out but others can not see in, or going with a frosted look, so viewing is a two-way obstruction. His desk is a U-Shaped Cherry type Burl Wood Desk, with gold trim and a sleek marble black top hosting tangible interface, utilizing both gesture and multi-touch technologies and multitask pop up Viewers that are hidden in the desk. Guys Chair is a White Leather High Back with matching Burl furnishings. Incoming communications are not displayed on a computer screen normally. Rather, they are projected holographically from an internal interface emitter. The Office it self is almost round with windows that arch out from the floor to the over head sealing above. Guys Desk sets in the center of the Office on the rear arching all straight across from the doors to the catwalk and the steps down to the Hub.
In front of the Desk are two matching white leather chairs only with a lower back and no wheels on them with a small round burl table between the two chairs.
To the right of the desk is an oval conference table with six white leather low back chairs around it. There are a few small tables close to the conference table that house many rare antiques and one with a tall light modal of the Star Base and the USS Victory Docking.
To the left of the Desk is a long white leather sofa with two burl end tables with plants on each and two matching white chairs. A rounded table between all three with an antique Greek Coffee hand held grinder, Coffee Brew pot and four small cups, on a alabaster tray. Behind the Sofa there is a full length Sofa table with a few British Navigation peaces from 1689 Earth, a Modal of the USS Resolution and a few photo's of the family.
Behind Guys desk is a long credenza with his set of 18th Century rare books from Earth on each side of the books he has Zeus holding up one end with lighting bolt in hand and Poseidon on the other with Trident in hand. Next to the Credenza is an old Gold Telescope on a wooden tripod. With the UFP flag on the right side and the Star Fleet flag on the left side of the Credenza.
Guys Desktop has a few items on it but mostly houses PADD's and Micro Chips and Data Rods and a Few Stylist. With a gold lamp with a blue glass shade that belonged to his great grand mother.
The Carpet is a dark gray with blue lining the room. Guy keeps the main lights pretty low with the accent lighting around the room set to blue and is used more for primary lighting. The room also has a few lamps and plates in the window frames that light the floor.
Guy Had the Office completely redone to remove his Predecessor's more cold taste in a work environment. Changing lighting, flooring, wall colors and all the furniture.
