Definition
部署 (bù shǔ) is a formal verb for 'deploy' or 'arrange' on a strategic scale — often used for military forces, company resources, or large systems. Compared to 布置 (bù zhì), which can also mean 'assign tasks' or 'set up a space', 部署 emphasizes larger-scale, planned organization. 配置 (pèi zhì) is narrower, focusing on technical configuration and allocation of equipment or systems.
