English term

all enabling function areas

English to Japanese Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general) 社内文書
I understand "function areas" means areas such as finance, personnel, procurement, etc. within a company, but I have no idea for "enabling".

I appreciate any advice.

全ての管理部門

In my company, the departments in question are called 管理部門 to differentiate them from the parts of the company that actually earn the money. That of course doesn't convey the "enabling" so maybe you can translate with 事業/業務を支援する管理部門 or 業務を可能にする管理部門.

援助

It's hard to know without context but it sounds like supporting departments that assist the main function/business. Would 援助 or 有効にする work?

全ての運営部門

Enable の「機能を有効にする」という意味と記載されている説明から判断すると、enabling function は「運営」に相当し、質問の言葉の意味は、企業組織の業務運営を掌握する部門や部署のことだと思います。

運営とは:
団体などの機能を発揮させることができるように、組織をまとめて動かしていくこと。

enabling capability
Definition
That helps an entity, program, or project get off the ground and up to the speed, but does not necessarily ensure its success.

企業の構造は、経営管理部門と、現業(事業)部門に分かれている。簡単に言えば、経営管理部門が経営の方針を決め、事業部門は経営管理部門の決めた方針を「間違いなく」実行することが求められている。そして、経営管理部門は事業部門がきちんと実行しているかどうかをチェックする。会社の仕組みはこれを前提に作られている。事業部制のもとでは、経営管理部門が事業部に分散しているが本質は変わらない。
