Abstract

It has long been one of the basic working tenets of this writer to concentrate on the political problems in getting Management Science used. Too often the political problems are given a definite back seat to the technical problems. The result of such short-sightedness is usually initial enthusiastic acceptance of a model with eventual failure of implementation.
