• Matching survey, archival, field, case, experimental, or intervention designs to operations questions
• Anticipating Empirical Research Methods Department checks
• Defending design against level of analysis mismatches
• Planning Intervention Based Research protocols

When not to use

• Purely analytical models
• Optimization techniques
• Non-empirical research
