You are invited to contribute to the discussions. The focus will be OR projects that have met with difficulties during their implementation, including particularly tricky or unusual technical requirements that had to be addressed during the development phase; or issues related to the use or acceptance by non-OR expert end-users.
Contributions that discuss experiences with the management of change in operations due to the introduction of an optimization or analytics application in an organization are of particular interest.
