OGOR

What OGOR does

Österreichische Gesellschaft für Operations Research (ÖGOR / OeGOR), the Austrian Society for Operations Research, is a non-profit scientific professional society founded in 1978 and headquartered in Vienna, Austria. It currently has approximately 250 members drawn from Austrian academia and industry. The society's stated mission is to promote Operations Research in practice, research, and teaching, and to represent Austrian interests in relevant international OR organizations. Operations Research is described by ÖGOR as a cross-disciplinary field combining business administration, mathematics, and computer science to solve complex decision-making problems through mathematical models and data-driven algorithms.

ÖGOR's primary tangible product is the Central European Journal of Operations Research (CEJOR), an international peer-reviewed journal co-published with the national OR societies of Croatia, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Czech Republic, and Hungary through Springer Link. CEJOR has been indexed in the Science Citation Index Expanded, SciSearch, and ISI Alerting Services, and has held an Impact Factor in the ISI Journal Citation Reports since 2009. Beyond the journal, ÖGOR maintains working groups, awards and a Hall of Fame, a job board, events and conferences, and an email newsletter distributed via its WordPress-hosted website.

The society operates as a membership-based non-profit (gemeinnützige, wissenschaftliche Fachgesellschaft) rather than a commercial entity. No pricing, revenue, funding, or headcount disclosures are available, and no parent company or investor ownership is indicated. Its sole leadership contact in the source data is Vice President / COO Ronald Hochreiter. Distribution is effectively limited to the journal through Springer Link and digital communications via the society's website (oegor.wordpress.com).

Broad incumbents

• INFORMS: Largest international OR/analytics professional society, headquartered in the US. Comparable as the global benchmark for national/regional OR societies in terms of publications, conferences, and member services, but at much larger scale.

Others

Regional players

• EURO (Association of European Operational Research Societies): The umbrella federation of European OR societies of which ÖGOR is a member. Comparable as a coordinating body for OR across Europe, organizing the EURO conference and awards, but at a pan-European rather than national scope.

Direct peers

• Gesellschaft für Operations Research (GOR): German national Operations Research society, the closest peer to ÖGOR: a fellow non-profit, DACH-region OR association promoting research, practice, and education, with comparable membership-based structure and academic publishing activities.
• The Operational Research Society (ORS): UK national society for Operational Research, one of the oldest in Europe. Highly comparable as a membership-based scientific society serving OR practitioners and academics, with publications and events.
• ROADEF (Société Française de Recherche Opérationnelle et d'Aide à la Décision): French national OR society, peer to ÖGOR as a fellow national scientific society promoting OR research and practice, organizing conferences (ROADEF), and representing France internationally.
