Abstract

It may be surprising that an entry named Operations Research (OR) appears in an encyclopedia of strategic management. In discussing whether OR does address strategy, Kirkwood (1990) argued that it should and does. OR is the discipline of applying advanced analytical methods to help make better decisions, which may concern strategic issues for an organization.
