Never used in canon.

Related verbs:

{che'} "rule, reign, run, preside"; {qum} "govern"; {loH} "administer"

The derived noun {vu'wI'} "manager" has been used once:

   Qu' vu'wI' yaH
   Mission Ops (STC)

This may refer to a work station on a starship's bridge - perhaps for the 
person in charge of an away team or acting as a liaison with the ship's 
captain?

Related nouns:

*{che'wI'} "ruler"; {qumwI'} "governor"; {loHwI'} "magistrate"); {HI'} 
"dictator"; {pIn} "boss}

{loHwI'} - literally "administrator" - was used in ENT "Affliction":

   loHwI' vISuch 'e' vIpoQ
   I demand to see the magistrate!
