Call for Nominations
Management Science Best Paper Award in Operations Management
Due April 20, 2015
The Manufacturing and Service Operations Society of INFORMS is pleased to continue the Management Science Best Paper Award in Operations Management. The award is given to the paper published in Management Science in the previous three years (2012-2014) that is deemed most deserving for its contribution to the theory and practice of operations management.
All papers published by the Operations Management department are automatically nominated for this award (see the list of these papers below). Any paper published in Management Science from 2012-2014 can be nominated for consideration. Self-nominations are accepted and encouraged. To nominate a paper, send an email to the Serguei Netessine, M&SOM President (serguei.netessine@insead.edu) with the paper's citation (authors, title, year, etc.) by April 20, 2015. No additional supporting information is needed or expected.
Three finalists (or more in the case of a tie) will be selected by the Associate Editors/Department Editors of the OM Department through an approval voting process. Finalists are then announced to the MSOM Society members and the winner will be selected from among the finalists by a vote of the MSOM Society members. The winning paper will be announced at the MSOM business meeting this Fall in Philadelphia and receive a plaque and $2,000 (to be divided equally among the authors).
