Abstract

Operations research modeling can serve as an approach to assist managers in addressing organizational problems involving various alternatives and limited resources. This study aims to analyze the role of operations research modeling in managerial decision-making and its implications for the effectiveness of organizational management. The study employs a qualitative literature review by examining books, journal articles, and other relevant academic literature. The data were analyzed qualitatively through information categorization, comparison of findings, and thematic synthesis. The results indicate that operations research modeling can help managers understand problems, compare alternatives, and consider the use of resources such as labor, time, costs, capacity, and inventory. Model results are not necessarily implemented directly; instead, they may be adjusted, discussed, and combined with managerial experience and other relevant information before a decision is made. Therefore, operations research modeling is more appropriately positioned as a decision-support tool that provides an analytical basis for managers, while final decisions continue to consider the actual conditions and needs of the organization.
