msom-literature-positioning

separate

Use when positioning a Manufacturing & Service Operations Management (M&SOM) manuscript within the operations-management literature — engaging the canonical OM streams (inventory, queueing, supply-chain contracting, revenue management, service operations, empirical OM), selecting the target editorial Department, and stating the operational conversation the paper joins.

When to use

• Positioning M&SOM manuscripts within OM literature
• Engaging canonical OM streams
• Selecting target editorial Department
• Distinguishing contribution from close OM antecedents
• Stating the operational conversation the paper joins
• Building a three-column map of incumbent conversation, tension, and delta
• Comparing against sibling venues like Management Science or P&OM
• Generating decision ledger rows for manuscript editing

When not to use

• Generic gap-spotting with no engaged OM stream
• Citing across all six departments causing ambiguous fit
• Differentiating only by dataset or industry
• Ignoring the closest analytical or empirical antecedent
