Individual skill

mgsci-rebuttal

Use when planning and drafting the revision and point-by-point response for a Management Science (INFORMS) R&R — prioritizing the Department Editor's binding concerns, addressing analytical-proof or empirical-identification objections, preserving double-anonymization, and keeping the revision within the page cap and Data-and-Code-Disclosure requirements. It handles the post-decision response; it does not run a fresh submission (mgsci-submission).

# R&R Rebuttal (mgsci-rebuttal)

## When to trigger

- You received a major-revision (R&R) decision from Management Science
- You have reviewer reports and a Department Editor letter and must plan the response
- You are unsure which concerns are decisive versus advisory
- You need to fit a strengthened paper inside the invited-revision page cap

## Read the Department Editor's letter as the map

In Management Science the **Department Editor** synthesizes the reviews and signals which concerns are **binding**. Plan the revision around that letter first: list every point from the DE and each reviewer, mark each binding / important / advisory, and resolve any conflicts between reviewers by deferring to the DE's framing (note the conflict explicitly in your response).

## Address objections in the paper's lane
