Journal of Industrial Engineering and Management (JIEM) (ISSN: 2013-8423)

Description

The aim of Journal of Industrial Engineering and Management is to publish theoretical and empirical articles that are aimed to contrast and extend existing theories, and build new theories that contribute to advance our understanding of phenomena related with industrial engineering and industrial management in organizations, from the perspectives of Production Planning/Scheduling/Inventory, Logistics/Supply Chain, Quality Management, Operations Management and Operational Research. The contributions can adopt confirmatory (quantitative) or explanatory (mainly qualitative) methodological approaches. Theoretical essays that enhance the building or extension of theoretical approaches are also welcome. JIEM selects the articles to be published with a double bind, peer review system, following the practices of good scholarly journals. JIEM is published quarterly (on-line and printed versions), following an open access policy. On-line publication allows to reduce publishing costs, and to make more agile the process of reviewing and edition. JIEM defends that open access publishing fosters the advance of scientific knowledge, making it available to everyone.
