pom-literature-positioning

separate

Use when positioning a Production and Operations Management (POM) manuscript within an operations conversation — against the target Department's prior work and adjacent OM journals (M&SOM, Management Science, Operations Research, JOM). Positions the paper; it does not build the model (pom-theory-development) or state the contribution (pom-contribution-framing).

When to use

• Positioning POM manuscripts
• Anchoring in target Department's canonical stream
• Contrasting adjacent OM journals
• Separating axes of novelty
• Handling same-data or related work
• Justifying POM as the home venue
• Building a three-column map of incumbent conversation and delta
• Returning a ledger of claim, evidence, risk, and location

When not to use

• Building the model
• Stating the contribution
• Polishing format before re-routing
• Giving submission-ready advice without checking official source map
