One thing that I hope would happen with the general board would be stuff like Mining posting work for someone to take a crate full of ore from them over to engineering. Random staff assistants get the notification of work, can apply to carry out that job, and then get some kind of cash reward sent to their account upon the job being marked as complete.
This gives a system of direct payment for completing tasks, a way for departments to outsource labor, an record of accountability for when people agree to jobs and don't fulfill them, the HoP more to do since I'd imagine the organization of labor is their department, and a way for crafty traitors and miscreants to intercept deliveries/gain access to areas either by taking job requests, posing as the person who accepted it, or attacking them in transit
Another idea, automated jobs.
Some would be basic stuff like the Engine being started as an incomplete job already posted at round start. Whoever finishes it can get paid for it by the Chief Engineer, HoP, Captain, or AI marking them as the one that completed it.
Other stuff would be more like the merchant requests but open certain department or everyone depending on the request.
