The Ten Natural Laws of Operations Analysis
1 Ignore the problem and go immediately to the solution, that
is where the profit lies.
2 There are no small problems only small budgets.
3 Names are control variables.
4 Clarity of presentation leads to aptness of critique.
5 Invention of the wheel is always on the direct path of a cost
plus contract.
6 Undesirable results stem only from bad analysis.
7 It is better to extend an error than to admit to a mistake.
8 Progress is a function of the assumed reference system.
9 Rigorous solutions to assumed problems are easier to sell than
assumed solutions to rigorous problems.
10 In desperation address the problem.
