pom-contribution-framing
Use when framing the contribution of a Production and Operations Management (POM) manuscript — stating the managerial insight for practicing operations managers and the advance to OM knowledge, tied to the target Department. Frames the contribution; it does not run the analysis (pom-data-analysis) or polish prose (pom-writing-style).

# Contribution Framing (pom-contribution-framing) ## When to trigger - The paper has technical material but the "so what" is thin - A reviewer says the contribution is incremental or "not relevant to practice" - The managerial takeaway is implicit and editors must infer it - You have results but cannot say in one sentence what a manager does differently ## POM's twin gate: knowledge AND practice POM's central acceptance question is whether the work is of **significant interest to practicing operations managers** *and* makes a **substantial contribution to knowledge and practice**. Frame both, explicitly — a contribution that advances theory but offers no operational lever, or improves an operational metric with no generalizable insight, sits below the bar. ## Build the contribution in this order 1. **Decision maker & decision.** Name the operations actor (plant manager, supply-chain planner, hospital operations lead, platform operator) and the choice they face under constraints. 2. **Knowledge gap.** What does the target Department's OM literature not yet explain or solve? 3. **Practice gap.** What can managers not currently decide well — and what does it cost them? 4. **The result

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill pom-contribution-framing --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
