From pom-skills
Routes between pom-* sub-skills for Production and Operations Management (POM) manuscript workflow, from topic selection through rebuttal. Identifies method track and next skill based on current manuscript stage.

This is the router. It does not replace any specialized skill; it tells you **which pom-* skill to use right now** for your POM manuscript.

Default assumption: unless told otherwise, the target is Production and Operations Management (POM) — the flagship journal of the Production and Operations Management Society (POMS), published by SAGE since January 2024 (previously Wiley-Blackwell), ISSN 1059-1478, twelve issues per year, founded and edited by Kalyan Singhal (University of Baltimore). POM accepts the full breadth of operations management — analytical/mathematical modeling, empirical OM, behavioral/experimental OM, and operations data science — and routes every paper to one of many named Departments (Behavioral Operations, Supply Chain Management, Healthcare Operations, Sustainable Operations, Operations Management Data Analytics, plus interface departments). The non-negotiable bar: the work must be of significant interest to practicing operations managers and make a substantial contribution to knowledge and practice, executed rigorously by whatever method fits.
Editor titles vary across sources (Subodha Kumar is listed as Co-/Deputy Editor-in-Chief); the department roster and Department Editors rotate. Verify the live masthead and departments at poms.org/journal. Submission fee and any data-deposit mandate are 待核实 — see

| Current symptom | Next skill |
|---|---|
| Idea is vague; unclear if it is OM and POM-fit; no target Department | pom-topic-selection |
| Model/hypotheses lack a clear mechanism, assumptions, or propositions | pom-theory-development |
| Front end reads as gap-spotting; wrong department's literature engaged | pom-literature-positioning |
| Method may not match the question (model vs data vs experiment) | pom-methods |
| Have proofs/data; unsure about numerics, identification, robustness | pom-data-analysis |
| Results exist but the "so what for the operations manager" is thin | pom-contribution-framing |
| Exhibits cluttered, not self-explanatory, or off house style | pom-tables-figures |
| Prose buries the argument; over the 32-page cap | pom-writing-style |
| Ready to submit; need the ScholarOne + department preflight | pom-submission |
| Want to understand POM department review before/after submit | pom-review-process |
| Received an R&R; need to plan and draft the response | pom-rebuttal |
pom-topic-selection — lock an OM question, POM fit, and target Departmentpom-theory-development — build the model/mechanism; derive propositions or hypothesespom-literature-positioning — engage the right department's prior OM workpom-methods — match method (optimization/stochastic/game-theory/empirical/behavioral/ML)pom-data-analysis — execute proofs and numerics, or identification, estimation, robustnesspom-contribution-framing — turn results into a managerial-and-knowledge contributionpom-tables-figures — finalize exhibits (result tables, comparative-statics plots, schematics)pom-writing-style — full-manuscript polish; enforce 32-page cap and e-companion splitpom-submission — ScholarOne preflight (department routing, double-blind, same-data disclosure)pom-review-process — set expectations; understand the no-resubmission rulepom-rebuttal — after an R&R, revise then draft the point-by-point response
