mgsci-data-analysis

Use when executing and reporting the analysis for a Management Science (INFORMS) manuscript — proving and numerically verifying analytical results, or estimating and validating empirical models (identification, robustness, inference) to the standard of the relevant Department, and preparing a Data-and-Code-Disclosure-ready replication package. It executes; it does not design the study (mgsci-methods) or frame the contribution (mgsci-contribution-framing).

# Analysis & Verification (mgsci-data-analysis)

## When to trigger

- Results are ready to be derived/estimated and reported
- You are unsure whether the analysis actually supports the claim
- Reviewers will probe proof correctness, identification, or robustness
- You must assemble the replication package the Data Editor will verify

Because Management Science is **bimethodological**, "analysis" means proving/computing results in the analytical lane or estimating/validating in the empirical lane. Both are held to their Department's rigor bar.

## Analytical lane — prove, then illustrate

- **Proofs first.** Every proposition/theorem needs a correct, checkable proof (main text or appendix). Reviewers verify the algebra and the logic.
