# Understanding JOM Review (jom-review-process)

## When to trigger

- You want to know what happens to a manuscript after submission
- You received a JOM decision letter and need to interpret it
- You are unsure who sees your identity and who evaluates the operations contribution
- You want to anticipate the method check before submitting

## The Department-routed pipeline

JOM is organized into **12 Departments**, each with its own Department Editors and mission. Your submission is routed to a Department (you named two, one preferred). The Department Editor oversees evaluation within that Department's conversation, typically assigning an Associate Editor who manages reviewers from the Editorial Review Board (ERB) and elsewhere. This is analogous to, but distinct from, INFORMS-style departmental area-editor routing.
