RECOGNIZING EXCELLENCE IN PRODUCTION AND OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT PRACTICE
The Production and Operations Management Society (POMS) has instituted the Martin K. Starr Excellence in Production and Operations Management Practice Award to recognize contributions made to the field of Production and Operations Management (POM) by POM practitioners. It is an international award and is open to all POM practitioners from around the world.
The POMS’ Board in its annual meeting held on April 28, 2006 in Boston, U.S.A., unanimously approved that the award be named after Dr. Martin K. Starr. The POMS’ Board in its deliberations noted that Dr. Starr has contributed to POMS and its activities since its inception and has been a constant source of guidance and inspiration to POMS. Naming this award after him is indeed a great recognition of his services to the POM profession in general and the POM Society in particular.
We are now seeking nominations for the eighteenth award which will be presented during the POMS Thirty-Second Annual Conference, April 21-25, 2022.
Please send your nominations to the committee chair, Dr. Martin K. Starr (martin.starr@gmail.com) with a copy to Professor Sushil Gupta, the Executive Director of POMS (poms@fiu.edu). Each nomination should include a resume of the candidate and a narrative, not to exceed three pages, of the contributions to POM during the career of the candidate. Accompanying letters of support are welcome. Visit POMS website www.poms.org to get more information about this award and the POMS Thirty-Second Annual Conference in April, 2022.
