?:abstract
  • This forum study examines the past and the future of Operations Management (OM) research First, we investigate the evolution of OM research from 1997 to 2018 by using machine learning tools to analyze all OM papers published in five journals (JOM, MS, M&SOM, POM, and OR), and find that the number of information/financial flow‐focused OM research papers has increased steadily over the years Second, we present three research topics motivated by the US‐China trade war and the Covid‐19 pandemic, and postulate that future OM research is likely to involve all three flows: material, information, and financial flows Finally, we argue that, to achieve operational efficiency, resilience, and sustainability in the Industry 4 0 era, firms should build (or strengthen) three new capabilities: Connectivity, Clarity, and Continuity As firms develop new ways to build these new capabilities, more innovative OM research ideas will ensue
