The workshop organizers, including the International Journal of Operations & Production Management (IJOPM), and Zhejiang University School of Management, are delighted to invite researchers to present their research in the parallel presentation sessions during the 2027 IJOPM Workshop.

Researchers can submit extended abstracts OR full papers of their research to be considered for presentation in the parallel presentation sessions. The submission deadline for both extended abstracts and full papers is 7th Oct 2026 (Wednesday). All submissions will be reviewed and the submitting authors will be notified of the outcomes of their submissions by 7th November 2026.

An extended abstract should be 500 to 1000 words in length. Authors need to follow the instructions provided in the Extended Abstract Submission page to prepare their extended abstracts for submission.

A full paper should be a maximum of 12,000 words in length, including all text, while an Impact Pathways paper is limited to 4,000 words. Authors need to follow the instructions provided in the Full Paper Submission page to prepare their full papers for submission.

All full papers submitted to the workshop will be automatically considered for IJOPM Best Paper Awards (chaired by IJOPM Co-Editors-in-Chief). Authors do not need to apply for these awards separately.

Best paper award winners will be invited to submit to IJOPM with guaranteed external review.
