The annual INFORMS Case Competition is intended to encourage the creation, dissemination, and classroom use of novel teaching cases in operations research, management science and analytics. While the Case Competition Award Committee desires to promote creation of new and innovative cases, it recognizes that the dissemination of such cases cannot always wait for the timing of this award, and thus recognizes novel submissions for this award as those that have been first published within 12 months of the competition award deadline.
Case Submission Requirements:
1. A case submission of no more than ten pages (8.5"x11") single-spaced (maximum of 3000 words); shorter cases are acceptable.
2. A stand-alone abstract (600 characters) required.
3. Exhibits are in addition to page limit.
4. A teaching note of length as necessary to meet content expected.
5. A 12-point proportional font (such as Times New Roman) with one-inch margins.
The 2023 deadline is July 31, 2023.
