msom-rebuttal

separate

Use after a Manufacturing & Service Operations Management (M&SOM) revise-and-resubmit — planning the revision around the Department Editor and Associate Editor priorities, then drafting a point-by-point response to referees while preserving operations centrality, the structured abstract, and the 32-page typeset cap. Drives the revision; revise the manuscript before drafting the letter.

When to use

• Planning M&SOM revision around DE/AE priorities
• Drafting point-by-point response to referees
• Addressing requests for numerical studies or robustness
• Strengthening identification or analytical proofs
• Managing the 32-page typeset cap and supplement
• Updating structured abstract and managerial implications

When not to use

• Writing the response letter before doing modeling or analysis work
• Treating referee comments as equal to DE/AE priorities
• Adding results that exceed the 32-page cap without using the supplement
• Silently ignoring or dropping inconvenient referee comments
• Diluting the operations decision at the core of the manuscript
