Gangelemente

German to English Bus/Financial Management Organization theory
"XXX stellt genau wie ZZZ die Aufgabe als Ausgangs- und Mittelpunkt des Organisierens in den Vordergrund.
Aufgabenanalyse und -synthese sind dabei wesentliche Instrumente zur organisatorischen Gestaltung.
Das Analyse-Synthese-Konzept der Organisationsgestaltung geht jeweils von der Aufgabe einer Organisationseinheit aus.
Es zerlegt diese Gesamtaufgabe in Teil- und Elementaraufgaben und sogar weiter in sog. Gangelemente, um sie dann wieder zu sinnvollen Einheiten zusammenzufügen."

Can anyone help? It would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

operation sequence elements

The proposed scenario generation method proceeds in the following five steps.
Step 1 – identifying elementary tasks which a product supports
Elementary tasks usually correspond to functions that a product supports. In this example, the
total number of the elementary tasks was fifteen.
Step 2 – identifying the procedure of operations carried out in each elementary task
An operation is an elementary action by the user, which produces a system response or a state
change. In step 2, the procedure of each task is described as a sequence of operations. Table 2 is
a part of the task-operation contingency that appeared in the example.

Step 4 – grouping the tasks based on their operation sequence patterns
In step 4, the tasks are grouped to have similar operation procedures and controls.

Operations are the actions performed by people interacting with a system or by the system itself,[11] and plans explain the conditions necessary for these operations.[1] Operations describe the smallest individual task steps in the HTA, i.e. those which cannot be broken down into plans and further operations. They are the individual actions, such as 'visually locate control' or 'move hand to control', which the user must perform in a particular combination to achieve the goal of task completion.

Or "elementary operations".

not sure here but will surely get the ball rolling

most elementary steps (in the process / task)

Perhaps a possibility somewhat along these lines ? I also understand it to indicate the lowest level / "basis" tasks which can not be further sub-divided.....thus maybe using the term most "elementary" might fit....just an option.....
