Editorial Introduction
This issue of the Independent Journal of Management &
production (IJM&P) features a selection of articles submitted and
revised until April 2019. Observe the works are the fruit of research and
publications of undergraduate, postgraduate and entrepreneurs.
It is important to mention that all the works are
showed without any kind of payment. All of them are published free from
payments or taxes.
The publication also counts on the work of researchers from various
parts of the world, which have undergone a process of peer review.
As chief editor of IJM&P, I am indebted to all
members of the editorial board and reviewers, which contributed to achieve a
very decent job during the evaluation and revision. Moreover, that they have
contributed to the Journal in recognition of the international scientific
community.
In addition, with all the authors,
who trusted the results of their research and publications to the scrutiny of
editors and reviewers who are part of our Journal.
In November, we upgraded OJS from version 2.4.8.1 to 3.2.1.2, which will
allow greater security for our system, as well as a more friendly and clean
interface. As can be seen on the first page of the site. The last number of the
year will be the first number with the new version. And new challenges are
being built for the year 2021.
