Operational research techniques in Hong Kong

Ky Leung, Wa Reynolds and D Sculli

Omega, 1983, vol. 11, issue 5, 469-477

Abstract: This paper presents the results of a survey of the use and organisational place of operational research techniques in different sectors of Hong Kong industry. The factors assisting the rapid growth of industry in the city-state are presented and the effect these have on the use of OR techniques is discussed. For a newly industralised country such as Hong Kong the conclusion of the authors is that OR techniques are best introduced and practised in a multi-discipline management services department rather than in a designated OR department.
