Call for Papers: MSOM Supply Chain Management SIG 2024 Conference
University of Minnesota, USA
June 30, 2024

 

The Supply Chain Management Special Interest Group (SIG) of the Manufacturing and Service Operations Management (MSOM) Society will hold its annual conference in person, on June 30, 2024, preceding the MSOM 2024 conference (July 1-2).

On behalf of the Supply Chain Management SIG, we would like to invite you to submit papers to this conference. Acceptance decisions will be based on full paper submissions. In-person presentations of the accepted papers will be scheduled in a single track. We are seeking high-quality papers to be presented at the meeting. These papers can be analytical, empirical, theoretical, methodological, or applied, and may address any topic within the broad range of topics covered by service operations.


Important Dates

Please note that no extensions will be given for the submission deadline. To facilitate the review process, we encourage you to submit your papers as early as possible.


Submission Guidelines and Review Process

A link to the SIG submission site will be available on the conference website on February 1**. 

1. Parallel submission to the MSOM main conference

SIG authors who want their paper/talk to be considered for MSOM main conference presentation (in case of rejection by the SIG) must also submit an extended abstract to the MSOM main conference separately by February 20, 2024**, which is the standard submission deadline for the main conference. Please indicate the corresponding SIG submission when submitting to the MSOM main conference.  Review of SIG paper submissions and main conference extended abstract submissions will occur in parallel.  Extended abstracts submitted to the main conference in this way will go through the usual main conference review procedure, independent of the SIG review.  If a paper is accepted for SIG presentation, it will be removed from consideration for the main conference. This process helps ensure consistent review standards for the main conference. 

2. SIG Submission Options:

Authors can choose from two distinct submission options for SIGs, each following a separate review and decision process (summarized in the table below): 

Dual Purpose (SIG+M&SOM 1RR): These submissions are considered for both the SIG-Day presentation and the first-round review at M&SOM.

Single Purpose: Considered for SIG-Day presentation.
