The operation of the LHC will present some real challenges. It is important at this stage to anticipate how the machine will be run, and attempt to ensure that the functionality and integration that will be offered by controls, beam instrumentation, accelerator devices and other systems will allow effective and safe exploitation. A breakdown of the main operational phases is presented and the implications discussed. Areas requiring further detailed study are highlighted.
