Operations Research has been applied in diverse areas, such as: agriculture, aviation, construction, education, electronics, finance, healthcare, manufacturing, military, sports, telecommunications, transportation, etc. Operations Research generates powerful benefits for organizations, such

Applications of Operations Research in 30 organizations are presented and the annual savings are given.
